Walnut Creek Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyer

The brain is the control center of the human body, so you can guess that trauma from a blow, bump, penetration, or other violent impact can have catastrophic effects for the victim. The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) report that traumatic brain injury (TBI) leads to around 61,000 fatalities every year and is a top cause of disability for those who survive. Some victims will experience short-term implications, while others may suffer from effects for years or the rest of their lives.

Because your losses can be considerable as the victim of a TBI, it is critical to take advantage of all legal remedies under California law. You may be entitled to compensation, and our team at Venardi Zurada LLP can help you navigate the legal process. Please contact our office to schedule a free consultation with a Walnut Creek traumatic brain injury lawyer, and check out an overview about the relevant concepts. 

Liability Issues for Victims of TBI

A head injury can result from a medical condition or under non-traumatic circumstances, but TBIs are also caused by accidents. In the practice of law, liability for personal injuries works according to the concept of negligence. To recover compensation, you must prove that the at-fault party caused your TBI by breaching the duty to act with reasonable caution. For instance, head injuries may be the result of:

  • Car, truck, and motorcycle crashes;
  • Other traffic-related accidents, such as those involving pedestrians and bicycle riders;
  • Slips, trips, and falls;
  • Dog bites and animal attacks;
  • Construction and other workplace accidents;
  • Intentional attacks and criminal assault;
  • Sports and recreational activities;
  • Defective products.

Seeking Compensation for TBI Complications

The long-term complications for someone with TBI can vary greatly because they depend upon the severity of the trauma and location of the injury. A minor TBI, such as a concussion, might lead to dizziness, mood swings, blurred vision, headaches, and memory loss. Severe head injuries might mean permanent brain damage, paralysis, and cognitive disorders. In some cases, a victim may lose independence and be reliant on others for care.

Considering the extensive complications of TBI for the victim and family, it is critical to pursue all available legal remedies. The Venardi Zurada LLP team will be at your side throughout the legal process, which usually starts by filing an insurance claim. We will attempt to reach settlement by agreement, but we will resort to litigation to protect your rights. Our Walnut Creek traumatic brain injury attorneys work to recover:

  • Costs of medical care;
