Brain injury victims often face the difficult reality that a full recovery may not be possible. According to Johns Hopkins Medicine, damaged brain cells do not regenerate based on multiple studies. This means that brain injuries can lead to lasting physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges. While younger individuals may experience better recovery outcomes, the extent of improvement depends on factors such as injury severity, prompt medical intervention, and rehabilitation. Complete healing is not always possible, but with the right care, many victims see significant improvements.

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a specific type of brain injury resulting from an external force, such as a sudden impact, jolt, or penetrating injury that disrupts normal brain function. TBIs can range from mild concussions to severe, life-altering damage. Victims often face significant physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges, requiring extensive and costly therapy, as well as long-term care. When another’s failure to act responsibly results in your injury, we fight for your rights. Our team will hold the responsible parties accountable and fight for the compensation you deserve.

Brain Injury Causes And Symptoms

A brain injury can instantly change your life. TBIs can take years to recover from, causing lasting physical, cognitive, and emotional challenges like headaches, dizziness, memory problems, and mood swings. Common causes include:

  • Sports And Recreational Accidents — Repeated blows to the head, especially in football, boxing, wrestling, and other contact sports, can cause a TBI. Victims may also get it from surfing, diving, and other swimming accidents.
  • Product Malfunctions — Safety gear is crucial for preventing head injuries, but defective gear can cause TBIs by failing to protect the head. This can lead to product liability claims.
  • Auto Accidents — Collisions or sudden impacts can lead to severe trauma to the head. These accidents may include car crashes, truck collisions, pedestrian accidents, motorcycle incidents, and more.
  • Workplace Accidents — Brain injuries are a major risk in construction, farming, transportation, and forestry. Falls and slippery surfaces are common causes of head trauma in these industries.
  • Slip And Fall Accidents — Slips, trips, and falls are common causes of brain injuries, ranging from concussions to more severe damage.
  • Assault, Domestic Violence, And Other Crimes — A forceful blow to the head, whether from a punch, kick, blunt object, or firearm, can cause severe brain trauma.

TBI symptoms, ranging from mild to severe, may not be immediately apparent. Besides headaches, dizziness, memory problems, mood swings, and unconsciousness, watch for nausea, seizures, sensory changes, movement issues, and difficulty concentrating. Seek immediate medical attention after an accident. Our Los Angeles brain injury lawyers can help you pursue compensation if someone else’s negligence caused your injury.

If you’re unsure whether you have a valid claim, just fill out our “Do I have a case?” form. We will promptly review your situation and provide you with a thorough assessment of your case.

Head injury that might cause brain injury after auto accident in Los Angeles

Types Of Brain Injuries

Brain injuries can range from mild to severe. There are two classifications: traumatic brain injuries and non-traumatic brain injuries, also known as acquired brain injuries (ABI). However, the most common type caused by accidents is traumatic brain injury.

While not every head injury leads to a TBI, high-impact trauma or penetrating objects can cause significant damage.

Doctors categorize TBIs into two main types:

  • Penetrating TBI (Also Known As Open TBI) — This injury occurs when an object, such as a bullet or sharp debris, pierces the skull and damages brain tissue.
  • Non-penetrating TBI (Also Known As Closed Head Injury Or Blunt TBI) — A sudden force causes the brain to move inside the skull, leading to bruising, swelling, or torn brain tissue. Car crashes, falls, and sports injuries frequently cause this type of TBI.

Depending on the accident, victims may also suffer different types of brain injuries, including:

  • Contusions — These are bruises to the brain itself caused by trauma to the head.
  • Hematoma — Blood pools within the skull, creating pressure that can cause serious complications.
  • Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI) — A violent jolt or rotation (such as in car crashes or falls) can tear nerve fibers in the brain’s white matter, disrupting communication between brain cells.
  • Penetrating Head Trauma — A foreign object breaks through the skull and directly injures brain tissue, often resulting in life-threatening damage.
  • Coup-Contrecoup Injury — A strong impact forces the brain to hit one side of the skull and then rebound to the opposite side, causing injuries in multiple areas.

Brain injuries affect each person differently, but with advanced treatment and rehabilitation, many victims can make significant recoveries. Our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury attorneys work closely with top medical specialists to ensure you get the care you need. If someone else’s negligence caused your injury, we are here to help you fight for the compensation you deserve.

Acquired Brain Injuries (ABI)

Not every type of brain injury is caused by physical trauma to the head. While traumatic brain injuries are a significant concern in accidents, it’s crucial to recognize that other forms of brain injury can occur, often with equally devastating consequences. These non-TBI brain injuries, also known as acquired brain injuries or ABIs, including those caused by oxygen deprivation, stroke, toxic exposure, or infection, can present unique challenges in diagnosis and treatment.

Understanding the various ways the brain can sustain injuries beyond traditional TBIs is essential for ensuring proper medical care and support for accident survivors. Here are some non-TBI injuries that can occur in an accident:

Anoxic And Hypoxic Brain Injuries

These occur when oxygen deprivation occurs in the brain. Anoxic refers to a complete lack of oxygen, while hypoxic refers to partial deprivation. This situation can happen in the following:

  • Near-Drowning — Submersion in water or any liquid impairs breathing and can lead to oxygen deprivation.
  • Choking — Obstruction of the airway can cut off oxygen supply.
  • Carbon Monoxide Poisoning — This gas displaces oxygen in the blood, leading to hypoxia.
  • Severe Lung Injuries — Accidents causing lung damage can hinder oxygen intake.
Stroke

While not always directly caused by the accident, the stress and physical trauma can sometimes trigger a stroke. Strokes involve a disruption of blood flow to the brain, causing various debilitating effects like paralysis, speech problems, cognitive impairments, and emotional changes.

These consequences significantly impact a personal injury claim by affecting a person’s ability to work, communicate, manage daily life, and ultimately, recover.

Exposure To Toxic Substances

Accidents involving hazardous materials, such as chemical spills or dangerous fumes, can expose a victim to toxic substances that affect their brain. These exposures can result in a range of neurological issues, including cognitive impairments, motor deficits, and personality changes.

Workers’ compensation may cover toxic exposures in the workplace that result in injuries. However, egregious employer negligence could allow a separate personal injury lawsuit for additional damages. Consulting an attorney experienced in both areas is crucial.

Infections

In some cases, accidents can create an opening for infections to enter the body and reach the brain, leading to conditions like meningitis or encephalitis. These infections can cause severe brain damage, resulting in a range of debilitating consequences that can significantly impact a personal injury claim. For example, meningitis or encephalitis can lead to:

  • Cognitive Impairments — Memory loss, difficulty concentrating, and problems with daily functioning impact work, finances, and quality of life, affecting damage claims.
  • Physical Disabilities — Motor deficits, weakness, and paralysis require rehabilitation and long-term care, impacting work and daily tasks, a key part of injury claims.
  • Seizures — Life-threatening seizures require medical management, and personal injury cases take this into account.
  • Personality/Emotional Changes — Depression, anxiety, and irritability strain relationships and well-being, contributing to damage claims.

Brain injuries from oxygen deprivation, stroke, toxic exposure, or infection can be equally devastating. Their cognitive, physical, and emotional effects significantly impact victims’ lives and form a crucial part of personal injury claims, demanding thorough documentation of damages for fair compensation.

If you or a loved one suffered a brain injury due to someone else’s negligence, it’s essential to seek experienced legal counsel. Contact our qualified Los Angeles brain injury lawyers today for a free consultation to discuss your rights and options.

The Long-Term Effects Of A Brain Injury

Unfortunately, the initial symptoms of a brain injury are not the only losses you will suffer. Brain injuries come with many long-term effects as well. Cognitive impairments (such as memory, concentration, and communication) might last for months or years. They might even be permanent. You might also have permanent physical impairments that affect your motor ability and neurological functions. This can require the use of a scooter, walker, or wheelchair, possibly for the rest of your life. The neurological damage can even cause seizures.

In addition to your cognitive and physical symptoms, you might also experience behavioral and emotional changes. You might also experience depression or anxiety in dealing with your new limitations or symptoms. These are entirely valid frustrations that can affect your mood and behaviors. Your behavior might become more impulsive or angry after an accident. In some cases, this is a temporary response to the immediate accident, but in other cases, these become permanent personality changes.

Possible Liable Parties In A Brain Injury Case

Many brain injuries result from preventable accidents caused by negligence. When someone’s reckless or careless actions lead to a brain injury, they should be held accountable. Here are some common parties who may be responsible:

  • Negligent Drivers — Reckless drivers who speed, drive under the influence, or text while driving can cause serious accidents that result in TBIs. If a driver’s negligence leads to a crash involving you, they may be held liable for your injuries.
  • Property Owners Or Managers — Property owners must maintain safe conditions for visitors. If they ignore hazards, such as wet floors, broken stairs, or poor lighting, and someone suffers a brain injury in a fall, they may be responsible for the injury.
  • Product Manufacturers Or Retailers — In California, companies that design, manufacture, or sell defective products are liable for injuries. If a faulty helmet, airbag, or other safety equipment fails to protect as intended and leads to a brain injury, the manufacturer or retailer may be responsible.
  • Trucking Companies — In truck accident cases, liability may extend beyond the driver. Trucking companies that fail to conduct proper background checks, enforce safety regulations, or comply with hours-of-service rules can contribute to accidents that cause injuries.

Accidents can happen in many ways. If someone causes a brain injury by ignoring another’s safety, they should be held accountable. Our experienced Los Angeles traumatic brain injury lawyers will investigate your case and identify those responsible for your injury.

Proving Liability In Your Brain Injury Claim

After you identify who’s responsible for your brain injury, the next important step is to prove negligence. By establishing negligence, you greatly increase your chances of receiving the compensation you should have. Our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury attorneys will help you demonstrate the four key elements of negligence and strengthen your claim.

We must prove the following:

  • Duty of Care — The at-fault party had a legal obligation to practice reasonable care and avoid reckless behavior to maintain your safety.
  • Breach of Duty — They violated this legal duty by failing to take reasonable precautions or by acting recklessly, putting you at risk.
  • Causation — Upon breaching their duty, the at-fault party caused the accident that led to your traumatic brain injury.
  • Damages — You incurred damages, including medical costs and lost wages, due to the accident.

If you find yourself asking, “Do I need a personal injury lawyer for my brain injury case?” The answer is yes. Our team consists of lawyers who have decades of combined experience in personal injury law. We have successfully handled cases of brain injury accidents and helped victims through their recovery.

Compensation Available For Accident Victims With Brain Injuries

If you or a loved one suffered brain injuries because of someone else’s negligence, you have the right to seek damages. Our Los Angeles brain injury lawyers can help you get compensation for the following:

  • Ongoing And Future Medical Costs — Brain injuries differ from other types of trauma. They may require specific treatments, rehab, or medications, depending on your case’s severity. Our Los Angeles personal injury lawyers can help recover the costs of these treatments. It may pay for surgeries, physical therapies, chiropractic care, or rehabilitation as long as they are necessary for your recovery.
  • Lost Wages Or Loss of Earning Capacity — Victims who suffer injuries to the brain may have to face long-term recovery if not permanent disability. In this case, our team will calculate your lost income or your possible earnings had the accident not occurred. We’ll also include lost employment benefits (like health insurance or employer contributions to a retirement fund).
  • Pain And Suffering — Accident victims often endure both physical and emotional pain. This compensation intends to address these intangible losses and help alleviate the suffering you’ve experienced.
  • Long-Term Care Costs — In some severe cases, brain injury victims may no longer be able to do normal tasks for standard living, such as cooking or bathing. This compensation should also cover costs for in-home nursing services or assisted living facilities.

In some rare cases, courts may also award victims with punitive damages. However, there should be solid proof of gross negligence or intentional harm. While they provide compensation, that is not their main purpose. They’re meant to punish the at-fault party and deter others from doing similar acts.

As one of the biggest personal injury law firms in California, Arash Law has recovered over $750 million in settlements and awards for our clients. The lawyers in our Los Angeles injury law firm can also help you get a better chance of obtaining maximum compensation.

What To Do After A Brain Injury Accident

Brain injury symptoms may not appear immediately after a collision or accident. If you or a loved one sustained a head injury, it’s important to stay cautious, as a TBI isn’t always immediately apparent. Our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury attorneys recommend taking the following steps:

Find Safety

Depending on the situation, the first thing you should do is to move to a safer location to avoid further accidents.

Call For Help

Ask for assistance depending on your situation.

  • For Accidents — Call 911 and ask for emergency assistance. Make sure that you provide important details, such as the location and nature of the accident. You should also mention that there are injured individuals.
  • For Workplace Or Property Incidents — Ask co-workers or witnesses for help. You may also ask if the manager or property owner can assist in calling medical help. In these delicate situations, you or your loved one must avoid unnecessary movements.
Get Medical Help

While medical responders or available onsite medical services can provide immediate care, you must get properly assessed in a hospital. Head trauma may not manifest immediately, and proper assessment can determine if you suffered one.

Report The Accident

Depending on your situation, report the incident to the proper authorities. For traffic accidents, contact local police or the California Highway Patrol. For property accidents, notify the property owner or manager. While the liable party should cover your accident-related expenses, you should still report the incident to your insurance company. This step is crucial in case you need to access your benefits.

Gather Important Pieces Of Evidence

Document the accident scene by taking videos or photos of your visible injuries. If the incident occurred on someone else’s property, take photos of the possible obstacles or hazards that may have caused your accident.

You can also do this on behalf of your loved ones if they’re the ones who sustained the injuries. If there are witnesses, obtain their contact details so you can contact them if you need their official accounts.

Consult With The Best Los Angeles Brain Injury Attorneys

When an incident like this occurs, it’s important to consult with an attorney who specializes in TBI cases. They can guide you through your legal options, particularly when it comes to seeking compensation for damages.

Our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury lawyers can take an in-depth look at your case to help you get the compensation you deserve. Call us at (888) 488-1391 to schedule a free case assessment.

Where Brain Injuries Are Treated In Los Angeles

Brain injuries can require complex and consistent medical treatment. Luckily, some of the best neurological experts in the world are right here in the Los Angeles area. Our LA brain injury lawyers can help you find the medical institution that will offer the right services for your particular case.

Similar to personal injury law, surgery, research, rehabilitation, and pediatric injuries require different areas of expertise. Here are just some of the many excellent local treatment centers for brain injuries:

Brain Injury Research Center (BIRC)

The Brain Injury Research Center (BIRC) is associated with UCLA. The Department of Neurosurgery at the David Geffen School of Medicine provides a steady stream of medical students, residents, fellows, professors, and other medical professionals to treat brain injuries. They also maintain an academic program of cutting-edge research. This allows them to offer the most current information and treatments. For the past twenty years, the UCLA neurosurgery program has made U.S. News and World Report’s list of top neurosurgery programs in the country.

Centre For Neuro Skills

A doctor developed the Centre for Neuro Skills with a personal mission. In 1972, a young man named Steve Ashley was left permanently disabled at the age of 21 as the result of a devastating brain injury. His brother, Dr. Mark Ashley, founded the Centre with the goal of treating brain injury patients with respect and dignity. They work with brain injury patients to help them reach their maximum potential for rehabilitation. Even small areas of independence can help brain injury victims regain some control over their world.

The Neurological Institute At The Children’s Hospital Of Los Angeles

Children have unique treatment needs after a brain injury. Their brains are still developing, and this can make an injury either more or less susceptible to damage and receptive to treatment. It is vital for a child brain injury victim to receive treatment from neurological experts who have specific experience with children’s brains. It is also essential to get the right treatment started as soon as possible. While time is of the essence in any brain injury, it is especially critical in addressing injuries to a developing juvenile brain.

The Neurological Institute at the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles has been ranked among the top ten programs in the nation for pediatric neurology and neurosurgery. The Institute has a high patient volume, which gives its staff extensive experience in a short amount of time. Children come from all over California – and even other states – to receive treatment for brain injuries at the Neurological Institute. The Institute has designed its hospital and programs for children, and the staff has experience in helping children through the complicated (and often frightening) procedures they must endure. This helps reduce the emotional toll that brain injury treatments can take on a child.

Deadline For Filing A Brain Injury Case In California

Accidents resulting in traumatic brain injuries fall under personal injury. In California, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, if your brain injury was due to medical negligence, there is a one-year time limit to file for civil action. For incidents where a government entity is liable for your accident, you have six months to file a lawsuit.

Brain injury symptoms may not appear immediately. Delayed discovery means the deadline for filing depends on the date of discovery. Delayed discovery of TBIs can lead liable parties to argue that you failed to seek a timely diagnosis. They may use this to minimize your injuries. That’s why it’s crucial to consult a doctor, even for seemingly minor injuries.

No matter your situation, our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury attorneys are here to protect your rights. With a proven track record in TBI cases, we combine legal and medical expertise to give you the best chance of securing maximum compensation.

Statistics On Brain Injuries

Traumatic brain injuries can occur in many different situations. Victims may suffer these injuries in a traffic accident, at work, or even from a slip-and-fall incident in a mall. In fact, provisional data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that in 2023, there were over 68,000 TBI-related fatalities in the U.S. August had the highest recorded number, with more than 6,000 cases. For 2024, provisional data covering the first half of the year (January to June) reported over 33,000 TBI fatalities.

The CDC also highlighted the following based on their latest data as of October 2024:

  • Approximately 32% of hospitalizations and 28% of deaths related to traumatic brain injuries involve individuals aged 75 and older.
  • There were over 214,000 TBI-related hospitalizations in 2020.
  • Males are nearly twice as likely to be hospitalized for a TBI and three times more likely to die from a TBI than females.

While millions experience traumatic brain injuries annually, nearly 800,000 suffer non-traumatic brain injuries. Studies show that among children, these non-TBI cases occur at a rate of 82.3 per 100,000. Toxic substance exposure is the leading cause, followed by brain tumors and meningitis.

Due to the high rate of accidents leading to brain injury cases, TBIs in particular, many victims may need support. This is especially true if someone else’s negligence caused the injury. Our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury lawyers will help you fight for the justice you deserve.

Questions People Frequently Ask Our Los Angeles Brain Injury Lawyers (FAQs)

Navigating the aftermath of an accident that causes a brain injury can be overwhelming. At our Los Angeles law firm, our experienced brain injury lawyers can provide you with the answers and guidance you need. Below, we’ve compiled a list of common questions to help you better understand your situation and the legal steps you can take.

In most cases, Los Angeles brain injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you won’t have to pay anything unless we secure damages on your behalf. This arrangement ensures that you can pursue justice without upfront costs or financial risk and that our success aligns with yours.

It’s possible to sustain serious brain injuries without realizing it, even if you feel fine right after an accident. Symptoms may not appear for days or even months. It’s essential to consult a doctor right away. A medical professional can conduct tests to detect any underlying issues and begin treatment promptly.

Furthermore, our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury attorneys can use your medical records as evidence if you choose to pursue a lawsuit. These documents help demonstrate the full extent of the injury’s impact on your health and quality of life.

The recovery period for a traumatic brain injury is highly individual and depends on the severity of the injury. While some people can recover within a few months to a year, some only see improvements five to ten years following the injury. Sometimes, recovering from a severe brain injury may require an extended or lifelong process of treatment and rehabilitation. Consulting a doctor who specializes in these conditions is important.

Our Los Angeles brain injury attorney will help you or your loved one secure compensation for your losses. We will also connect you with top medical experts to ensure the right treatment for a smoother recovery process.

After a severe brain injury, hospitals, rehabilitation centers, outpatient clinics, support groups, and therapeutic settings can provide treatment and rehabilitation services. For the best chance of a full recovery, it’s important to see a specialist who focuses on treating your specific type of brain injury.

Given the high costs of therapy and treatment, it’s crucial for those affected to consult an experienced traumatic brain injury attorney in Los Angeles as soon as possible.

There is no straightforward answer to this because answers vary depending on your situation. Your physician can provide a more accurate answer based on your conditions after the accident. Some minor cases of brain injury may improve within a few months with the help of therapy. Meanwhile, when someone suffers moderate to severe head trauma, they often need to adjust to a new reality that involves lifelong challenges.

When an injury significantly alters your life, our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury lawyers can help you seek damages. While compensation may not restore the life you once had, it can help cover the essential needs you require for your new way of life.

It would be difficult to answer this question without knowing the intricacies of your case. However, settlement amounts for brain injury cases in California can vary widely. It may range from $1,000,000 to $3,000,000, depending on the surrounding circumstances. 

However, it is important to understand that each case is unique. Several factors may play a role in influencing the amount of the potential settlement, including the severity of injuries. Our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury attorneys can assess the damages you’ve suffered and accurately calculate them. We will ensure you understand the fair and appropriate settlement amount for your case.

Anyone who has suffered a TBI due to someone else’s negligence, regardless of age, has the right to seek justice. Parents or legal guardians can pursue a claim on behalf of children or minors. If the TBI has caused incapacity or death, spouses or family members can file a lawsuit on the victim’s behalf.

In some situations, filing a lawsuit may be necessary, but victims can also pursue justice by filing a claim. Our Los Angeles traumatic brain injury attorneys will help you explore your legal options and clearly explain the advantages and disadvantages of each. This ensures you can make a well-informed decision.
