Oakland Brain Injury Attorneys
A traumatic brain injury has the potential to permanently alter or disrupt any function of the brain, including memory, concentration, physical movement, and speech. Serious brain injuries can cause permanent physical disability requiring 24-hour medical care. Because brain injuries change a victim's life so much, a victim's close family members will also feel the effects of an injury, and in some cases, even assume the role of a caregiver. When a brain injury is the result of an accident that was caused by someone else's negligent actions, the victim and their family may be entitled to substantial compensation from the liable party.
Advocates for Brain Injury Victims
After any accident that leads to a serious injury, obtaining full and fair monetary compensation from the party responsible for an injury is important. However, especially with brain injuries, because of the severity of the injuries and the tremendous expense of caring for a brain injury victim, obtaining full and fair compensation is absolutely critical. Before you accept a settlement offer, talk to a lawyer. Immediately after an accident, the full physical, emotional, and cognitive effects of an injury may not be clear. Because some injuries worsen over time, it is important to understand the full effects of an injury before accepting any settlement.
At Estey Bomberger, our Oakland personal injury attorneys are compassionate advocates for brain injury victims. We fight to ensure victims and their families receive nothing less than the maximum money they may receive for past and future medical bills, rehabilitation and therapy, lost earnings, pain and suffering, and other accident-related expenses. We have obtained a number of large verdicts and settlements for victims of brain injuries, including a recent $14 million settlement for a brain injury victim (see our case results).
