BRAIN INJURY VICTIMS MAY WANT TO PURSUE PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS

A traumatic brain injury takes place when a person suffers a serious hit or jolt to the head. It can cause bruising of the brain, tear brain tissue, cause bleeding and more. Many people in Connecticut suffer TBIs annually. For example, a person could suffer a TBI if they slip on a wet floor, striking their head on the floor’s surface. Car accidents are also a common cause of TBIs. In addition, a person could suffer a TBI while playing a sport. Therefore, it is important to understand how a serious TBI affects a person’s health and quality of life.

A person with a severe TBI might pass out. They could have a bad headache that gets worse over time. They may vomit or even have seizures. Their extremities may be weak or numb, and their coordination could be poor. They may be extremely confused, and they may slur their speech. Finally, their behavior may be agitated, combative or in some other way unusual.

As this shows, a TBI can significantly affect a person’s health long after the initial injury occurs. A person who is suffering from the complications of a TBI may incur medical expenses, costs related to rehabilitation and they may miss time at work leading to lost wages. They may experience pain and suffering and depending on the circumstances that lead to the injury, they could even suffer emotional trauma.

Therefore, if a person suffers a TBI due to the actions of another person, such as in a car crash, he or she may want to pursue a personal injury lawsuit. Oftentimes these types of suits are based on the theory of negligence. It is important that those pursuing personal injury lawsuits understand how the laws of negligence apply to their specific circumstances, so they can determine how to move forward with their claim. Attorneys are a useful resource in such endeavors.
