Are you suffering from a brain injury caused by someone else's negligence?
The symptoms of a traumatic brain injury can vary greatly. Many times someone suffering from this injury appears normal from the outside. However, one or more of the following symptoms usually surface:
- memory loss
- hange in personality
- difficulty finding words
- blurred vision
- difficulty organizing tasks
- headaches
- inability to focus
- nausea
- ringing in the ears
Brain injuries can arise from a variety of types of accidents, including car accidents, slip and falls, and injuries caused by defective products.
Our lawyers have experience handling brain injury cases and know the steps that need to be taken to ensure the best result for the client. These are ‘expert intensive’ cases that require more than just medical testimony to present to the jury the full impact of the injury. Testimony from a neurologist, psychiatrist, and psychologist is just the beginning. We routinely a retain vocational rehabilitation expert to testify to the loss of future earnings, a life care planner to identify the types of future care and costs a brain injury victim will have to endure, and an economist to prove the future damages.
Brain injury cases are some of the most difficult cases to prosecute. Typically, they are fiercely defended by insurance companies because the stakes are very high. The discovery process usually involves numerous lay witness depositions, expert depositions, medical examinations, motions to compel, and motions in limine to exclude evidence.
The lawyers at Bucci & Dix have both the experience in litigating brain injury cases and the willingness to fight for their clients at every step in the litigation process.
