What Is A Traumatic Brain Injury?

TBI is a severe, crippling, and sometimes fatal injury caused by head trauma. It causes a disruption of normal brain functioning due. The injury can come from a bump, blow, shaking, or penetration to the head.

All the things that we take for granted, like eating, breathing, and maintaining normal cardiac function, are controlled by nerve impulses from our brain. The normal daily tasks that we take for granted can become incredibly difficult after a TBI.

Every year, millions of Americans suffer a traumatic brain injury, some even resulting in permanent impairment. Brain injuries are frequently caused by slip and fall, motorcycle, trucking, and auto accidents. A brain injury lawyer understands the differences in the severity of a TBI and what that means for the victim.

What Are Common Symptoms Of A TBI?

Depending on the extent of the damage to the cerebrum, traumatic brain injury symptoms can be severe, moderate, or mild. Some symptoms may not surface for a while after the accident, while others might appear immediately. An injury such as a concussion, stroke, or whiplash can cause brain damage without showing evidence of serious trauma.

This is why it is important to be seen by a medical professional as soon as possible after your accident. Waiting for symptoms to show can cause the statute of limitations to pass and prevent you from getting the compensation you deserve.

Adults with a mild traumatic brain injury may feel out of sorts or confused for weeks or days after the accident.

The following is a list of common TBI symptoms in adults that victims of brain injury may manifest:

  • Persistent mild headaches
  • Poor concentration
  • Confusion
  • Poor memory
  • Poor organizational ability
  • Poor decision making
  • Mood changes
  • Slow speech
  • Slow reading
  • Neck pain
  • Lack of energy
  • Change in sleep patterns, such as insomnia or oversleeping
  • Loss of balance or coordination
  • Blurred vision
  • Sensitivity to light
  • Loss of senses
  • Ringing in the ears
  • Loss of sex drive

Noticing signs of brain injury in children may be more difficult because they have less developed communication skills. The child may feel some symptoms but cannot express them. If you observe any of the following changes in your child, a brain injury is possible:

  • A lack of energy
  • Crankiness or an increase in temper tantrums
  • Changes in their eating habits
  • Changes in the way they play
  • Altered performance in school
  • Loss of interest in favorite toys
  • Loss of skills, such as toilet training, reading, or writing
  • Loss of coordination and balance

Early mild traumatic brain injury symptoms may first appear benign, but some clients are unaware that they were injured badly. These issues can lead to significant life-long impairments, such as psychological, cognitive, and physical debilitation.

16% of mild traumatic brain injury cases can lead to permanently disabling conditions. This means a lifetime of physical therapy, cognitive impairments like brain damage, and rising rehabilitation costs.

If you’ve experienced blunt force trauma to your head or neck area, like in a motor vehicle accident, you need to contact a traumatic brain injury lawyer immediately.

Altman-Nussbaum-Shunnarah Trial Attorneys has been helping victims recover compensation for their injury claims for over a decade. We want to share a verdict from a cerebrum injury case we had two years ago.

Below is a Jefferson County Circuit Court verdict, which occurred in Alabama in November 2019, and awarded $18 million in damages to an Afghanistan and United States Army Combat Veteran. 

The case was one of our biggest to date and proves how serious we take personal injury claims.

Zachary Lucas suffered a traumatic brain injury when a van hit him on I-22. Progressive Insurance Company covered the other driver at the time of the claim.

Two of our injury attorneys, Andrew Moak and Brandon Bishop, tried the case for four days leading to the verdict. The personal injury lawyers uncovered more details of the case, which assisted in the final decision.

In this case, the location of the incident was the primary issue. It was approximately 22:00 on the 16th of November 2015, when Mr. Lucas pulled over on the side of the road. His motorcycle had run out of gas, and he was examining what he considered a defect.

Mr. Lucas’s lawyers argued that the accused struck him while inspecting his motorcycle on the road’s shoulder. Mr. Lucas offered physical evidence and expert testimony to the jury, proving that the collision occurred on the shoulder of the road.

The victim’s injuries were life-threatening and severe; that is why the Altman-Nussbaum-Shunnarah Trial Attorneys did swift work when dealing with this case. Even though he wore a helmet at the time of the collision, Mr. Lucas suffered brain hemorrhages and a fractured skull that left him with permanent mental and physical deficits.

Several members of his family were in the courtroom while he offered a compelling and dramatic testimony to the jury about the effects on his life these injuries had caused.

Brandon Bishop states that they gave Progressive Insurance Company a chance to pay Zachary’s settlement before filing a lawsuit. Instead, the insurance company offered the client $12,500 and threatened to take him to trial if he didn’t accept.

After a one-hour and 15-minute deliberation, the jury returned with an $18 million unanimous verdict, finding that the accused was liable for Mr. Lucas’s permanent injuries, physical pain, mental anguish.

Andrew Moak mentioned that nobody deserves this verdict more than Mr. Lucas because his injuries were devastating to all his loved ones. Hopefully, he can finally now get the help that he so badly requires.

You need to be aware of insurance adjusters that try to manipulate and confuse personal injury victims who try to claim settlements.
