Brain Damage/Head Injuries
The answers to these accident and injury questions were answered by experienced lawyers who specialize in injury law.
Q: I was never diagnosed with a closed head injury or a brain injury at first-what does that do to my potential case?
A: It is fairly common that a brain injury/closed head will not be diagnosed at the ER or even in the first weeks after a wreck or collision. This alone will not defeat the potential case. Brain injuries are often missed at first even by trained professionals. Please read over other discussions we have posted related to brain injury law or case results. Call us to discuss your questions.
