Head trauma may cause a serious brain injury. This trauma may be sustained when a person slips and falls, is assaulted or is involved in a motor vehicle accident of some kind. Severe trauma to the head may cause bruising or swelling of the brain and a number of subsequent complications, including unconsciousness, concussion and coma. Brain injuries may also be caused due to a lack of oxygen to the brain, as may occur in an accident involving asphyxiation – such as drowning or choking. An infant may also suffer serious brain injury, such as cerebral palsy, due to a lack of oxygen during the labor or delivery process.
Protecting Victims of Brain Injury
It is important to determine who is at fault in your case. If you or someone you know has suffered a serious brain injury, your lawyer will need to conduct an investigation and determine what party can be held legally responsible. It may have been the driver of the other car in an auto accident, or a doctor in a medical malpractice case. At Freedman Law Group we have the experience and resources to effectively determine the at-fault party and seek financial compensation on your behalf.
