Jennifer Kashar – McKinney, Texas Brain-Injury Lawyer

Unfortunately, any number of unexpected mishaps can result in brain injuries such as a slip and fall, a car accident, or a sports injury. The CDC reminds us that an average of 1.4 million Americans will suffer a brain injury every year.

Whether one has experienced a mild concussion or irreversible brain damage due to any type of head trauma, it is important to realize that only a seasoned personal-injury attorney can successfully bring a brain-injury lawsuit to a successful conclusion. As expected, the legal complexities are enormous.

Insurance companies will do their best to reduce payments to clients or their families in order to minimize their own losses. I am a former insurance company defense attorney, so I am well aware of their underhanded tactics.

Below you will find some basic, yet very crucial, information regarding brain-injury lawsuits.

1: Seek a Personal-Injury Lawyer

The importance of speaking with a seasoned personal-injury attorney cannot be overstated. Due to medical issues that must be addressed with brain-injury cases, the legalities involved are immense.

2: Be Aware of What You Will Need to Prove

There are several overarching elements that are required to be proven in brain-injury cases. Here are a few:

• Is the defendant legally liable for the brain injury? Determining negligence or ‘damages’ on the part of the defendant can be tricky and multi-faceted. This is where the expertise of a personal-injury attorney can be decisively effective.
• Did the defendant act with reasonable care towards the brain-injured party?
• Are the injuries of the victim measureable under the law?

An experienced personal-injury attorney will help uncover crucial information to address and clarify all these legal prerequisites. You want financial restitution, and fully achieving that will be directly due to the dedication and litigation experience of a personal-injury lawyer.

3: Proactively Gather and Prepare Evidence

Providing evidence to satisfy the three prerequisites listed above is of prime importance. Also, since the nuances of brain-injury lawsuits are so detailed, it is imperative any and all evidence be gathered immediately after the accident in addition to any details that might emerge days or weeks later. Whether evidence-gathering involves taking pictures and videos from the accident scene or gathering personal testimonies from witnesses, the bottom line is to be able to provide as much relevant information as possible to support your brain-injury case.

Additionally, documenting how the brain injury has altered the victim’s life is vitally important. Examples might include missed work, permanent loss of employment, and types of emotional pain and suffering.
