Symptoms of a Serious Brain Injury
The brain is very vulnerable to traumatic injuries. When there is blunt force to the skull such as hitting your head on the dashboard, or a skull fracture, serious brain damage can result. However, there are various levels of brain injuries, depending on the extent of the force. While some people may only suffer a concussion and recover after a short period of time, others may endure a mild or traumatic brain injury with permanent damage.
In other cases, a brain injury may be difficult to diagnose or may be misdiagnosed by an ER doctor or physician. Depending on the extent of brain damage, people with a brain injury may suffer from:
- Short- or long-term memory loss
- Headaches and chronic pain
- Mood swings or personality changes
- Impairments in speech (slurred speech)
- Loss of control over motor skills or emotions
- Other varying physical and mental symptoms

In a car accident, slip-and-fall accident, motorcycle accident or other personal injury case involving a closed head injury, the symptoms of brain damage may not initially surface. Therefore, it is imperative to seek proper medical attention right away — not only to ensure you receive proper medical treatment, but also to ensure your injuries are documented.
As an highly experienced Connecticut personal injury lawyer, I understand the complexities of cases that involve serious injury, such as a brain injury. I will thoroughly investigate the accident, determine all angles of potential liability and pursue full compensation on my client's behalf. I understand that full compensation is important in cases involving brain injuries because my client will likely require long-term medical treatment, daily care assistance and have other extensive needs. In addition, a person with a brain injury may suffer lost wages and endure permanent loss of income. I work to get the compensation my client will need to get the care, support and resources he or she will need living with a brain injury.
I represent clients who have suffered a brain injury, spinal cord injury, broken bones or other injury in a car accident or motorcycle accident or who have been harmed in any number of other catastrophic accidents.
