Traumatic Brain Injuries
Every five minutes, one person in the United States suffers a traumatic brain injury (TBI). A traumatic brain injury changes lives and relationships forever.
There's something different about a traumatic brain injury. TBI is known as the "silent epidemic". Often a TBI is invisible. It may not show up -- even on medical testing. A TBI only becomes real through conversations with family members and close friends who knew the injured person before and after the TBI.
Most brain injuries are caused by trauma such as motor vehicle accidents, falls, or injuries on property or premises owned by another. Even a mild TBI may affect your memory, your ability to concentrate, and your ability to understand and follow directions -- all requirements you need to maintain your job.
Traumatic brain injuries require specialized knowledge to identify brain anatomy, symptoms, and proper treatment. We get the best evaluation and treatment available for the survivor . . . and the compensation to get on with your life.
