What Causes Brain Injury?

brain injury describes brain damage caused by an external force impacting the head. The outside force may be a bump, jolt or a penetrating wound. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, traumatic brain injuries make up a large portion of deaths in America each year, as well as many cases of permanent injury. Brain injuries are serious, and you deserve maximum compensation if you were injured as a result of someone else’s negligence.

Brain injuries can have lifelong physical, mental and emotional ramifications. If you or your loved one suffered a TBI caused by someone else’s carelessness, such as by a distracted driver or unsafe workplace, you may be eligible to pursue compensation for your injury.
