What is Brain Injury Law? This type of injury is generally
categorized as a catastrophic injury in tort law and involves the
representation of people who have been injured as the result of the
wrongful conduct or negligence of someone else, or the representation of
the individual(s) being sued for the alleged negligence that caused the
brain injury.
Because brain injuries are so diverse and complicated, is can be a complex legal issue. In addition to negligence and tort law, these injuries can also touch on administrative law, such as workers’ compensation or social security and disability. There’s also a great deal of legislation being proposed in an effort to decrease incidences of recreational and sports-related head injuries, and motor vehicle related brain injuries, and, more specifically, concussions.
If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury as the result of another party’s negligence, an attorney knowledgeable in this area of law, can assist you in recovering compensation for the injury, suffering, medical and hospital care, current and future wage loss and the cost of future care and rehabilitation.
