North Bay Brain Injury Lawyer
According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), somebody in the United States suffers a brain injury every twenty-one seconds! Oftentimes, brain injuries are severe and result in a coma or death for the injured party. However, most injuries are less severe with symptoms that are difficult to recognize. Although most victims can fully recuperate, they often suffer through some very difficult and harsh symptoms while they last; for example, confusion, short and long-term memory loss, nausea, irritability and other symptoms that are related to concussive syndrome and other brain injury symptomatology. For these reasons alone, brain injuries and head trauma require immediate medical attention. Hence, accident victims should contact our highly experienced and skilled brain and head injury lawyers for a free and confidential consultation.

What is the Biggest Cause of Brain Injuries?
Our personal injury lawyers represent injured parties who have suffered very serious head injuries caused by negligent operators of motor vehicles and, therefore, understand our injured clients’ needs for quick action and to help provide for ongoing care and treatment. Vehicle accidents are the number one cause of brain injuries accounting for 50% of all traumatic brain injuries. Drivers, passengers, and pedestrians all can suffer traumatic brain injury from car accidents and other fatal crashes. However, other common causes of brain and head injuries are:
- Tour bus accidents.
- Trolley car and cable car accidents.
- Train, metro and subway accidents.
- Motorcycle accidents.
- Airplane accidents and skids.
- Pedestrian and crosswalk accidents.
- Auto accidents.
- Bicycle accidents.
- Limousine, Uber, and taxi accidents.
- Truck accidents.
Our number one goal is to ensure that every injured victim receives full compensation for all of their out- of-pocket costs and future medical care, including lost income, pain and suffering and medical expenses. We also can arrange to have our clients who are unable to afford to pay up front costs for medical treatment to receive first-rate treatment by working with doctors, experts, and medical providers and hospitals to accept payment on a lien basis. Without proper and timely medical care, insurance companies often low-ball a settlement offer, so it is imperative that we can work an arrangement like this to accommodate our clients.

- Traumatic brain injuries.
