Dayton Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyer

Home  >  Dayton Personal Injury Lawyer   >  Dayton Catastrophic Injury Lawyer   >  Dayton Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyer

Assaults, car crashes, medical mistakes, and many other accidents could cause severe damage to the brain. A traumatic brain injury, or TBI, may happen when the brain collides with the inside of the skull with enough force to damage the brain's soft tissue. TBIs can cause debilitating symptoms and often impact cognitive function.

After sustaining a severe head injury, the road to recovery is often long and expensive. If another person's carelessness led to your or your loved one’s TBI, you have the right to hold them accountable for their actions, and our catastrophic injury attorneys can help. Our seasoned Dayton traumatic brain injury lawyers can help you fight for the compensation your family deserves while you or your loved one focus on recovery.

Symptoms of a Severe Concussion

Traumatic brain injuries can produce symptoms that range from mild to severe. Mild TBIs can heal in a few weeks to several months with little medical intervention. Severe brain injuries, however, are complex and require extensive medical attention and ongoing care. The long-term symptoms of a concussion include:

  • Personality changes, such as extreme mood swings
  • Difficulty paying attention or remembering things
  • Sleeping problems
  • Sensitivity to light and sound
  • Noticeable changes to sense of taste and smell
  • Vision or hearing alterations
  • Communication difficulties or changes in speech
  • Loss of enjoyment of life

Indications of head trauma often appear days or even weeks after the accident, making it imperative for anyone who may have sustained a brain injury to seek immediate medical attention, regardless of whether the symptoms seem mild. Our compassionate attorneys have seen the impact of TBIs and can assist you in proving the effects of your or your loved one’s head injury.

Recovering Civil Damages for a TBI

When a person suffers a TBI because of someone else’s negligence, they will need to prove that the defendant acted with negligence, recklessness, or intent to recover compensation.

If the plaintiff and their legal counsel are successful in proving liability for a traumatic brain injury, a judge may award the following damages:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Property repairs
  • Mental anguish
  • Pain and suffering
  • Loss of earning capacity

A skillful Dayton attorney can work with you to investigate and collect the evidence needed to prove liability in your severe head trauma case.

Statute of Limitations for Brain Injury Claims

Ohio Revised Code §2305.10 states that a person must file a lawsuit for most personal injury cases within two years of the date of the accident that caused their damages. However, depending on the type of incident that caused your head trauma, it may fall under a separate time limit. It is therefore in your best interest to consult with an attorney to ensure your traumatic head injury claim is filed within the applicable deadline.

Call a Qualified Traumatic Brain Injury Attorney in Dayton

It is essential to have representation who understands the complexities of severe TBIs and the civil court processes. If the careless acts of someone else led to you or someone you love sustaining severe head trauma, call our compassionate and experienced Dayton personal injury lawyers right away to discuss your legal options for filing a claim.
