Life-Altering Accidents and Injuries

A brain injury can be life-changing. The victim's personality can change. They may experience subtle differences in their cognitive or physical abilities. When a catastrophic brain injury involves oxygen deprivation or severe trauma, a person may become unable to speak, work, or perform everyday functions. In some cases, a brain injury can lead to a long-term coma or death.

Our brain injury clients include people who have been injured in:

• Car accidents
• Truck accidents
• Motorcycle accidents
• Drunk driving accidents
• Boating accidents
• Construction site accidents
• Slip and fall accidents

It is important to seek medical evaluation after any blow to the head, especially if you lost consciousness, even for a few seconds. If you experience dizziness, light sensitivity, or an inability to concentrate in the days or weeks after the accident, it is possible that you suffered a brain injury and should seek medical attention.

Speak to a Lawyer as Soon as Possible

If you have been diagnosed with a brain injury or another serious head injury, it is important to seek experienced legal advice before you speak with an insurance adjuster or other insurance company official. Insurance companies strive to provide as small an award as possible for people who are covered by their policies. They often fail to consider how a person's future may be changed after a brain injury. An experienced lawyer will make the case for you. Contact us at 408-293-7777, and we can speak to insurance companies on your behalf to negotiate settlements that will meet your needs.
