When you suffer a traumatic brain injury (TBI), both immediate and long-term treatment will be required. Recovery from TBI may take years of expensive rehabilitation and, in the end, there is no guarantee that you will fully recover.
If you have sustained TBI in an accident, a brain injury lawyer will be able to assess liability and fight to get you the compensation you will need to recover to the best of your ability. Long-term treatment teams may include physiatrists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, recreational therapists, speech/language pathologists, nurses, neuropsychologists, and counselors or therapists.
It is estimated that people suffering from severe TBI will spend four to nine million dollars on medical treatment over the course of their lives. In addition to medical expenses, you may be incapable of working, forced to modify your home and adapt to assistive technologies such as wheelchairs or hearing devices, and/or forced to endure untold physical and emotional pain and suffering. Only a brain injury attorney can help you recover money for these damages and see that you are provided with every penny you deserve.
If you or a loved one has sustained TBI in an accident, please contact an experienced brain injury attorney in your area today to schedule a free case evaluation.
