One of the most devastating injuries a person can suffer is a traumatic brain injury. These occur when a person suffers trauma to the head, causing an injury to the brain. For instance, someone is in a car accident and they hit their head on the dashboard and suffers a traumatic brain injury. These injuries can have a life-long effect on the injured person. A Portland Injury Attorney can examine your particular injury and evaluate the damages. This way, you can be sure any settlement or verdict covers your injuries for the rest of your life.
Effects of Traumatic Brain Injury from a Portland Injury Attorney
These injuries are difficult because unlike broken bones or other dramatic injuries, the effects are not visible to the naked eye. Even the injured person may think they have escaped serious injury, only to realize days or weeks later that things are not right. When a person suffers a TBI, they may suffer from:
- Seizures (especially in the week or so after the injury)
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Memory problems
By carefully explaining the jury or the insurance adjuster how these catastrophic injuries have impacted a person, a Portland Injury Attorney can make sure that they understand the complexity of these injuries even if they aren’t apparent to the naked eye.
