Legal Guidance for Victims of Wisconsin Brain Injuries

When a brain injury occurs, it can turn life upside down for the injured person and their loved ones. The impact often goes beyond immediate physical symptoms. From work and relationships to long-term health and well-being, brain injuries can influence every aspect of life.

At Pemberton Personal Injury Law Firm, we understand the immense challenges that follow a brain injury. Our experienced Wisconsin brain injury lawyers are here to help you navigate this difficult time and secure the compensation you need to begin your recovery journey.

What Is a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)?

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) happens when an external force causes damage to the brain. This can occur from a blow to the head, a jolt, or an object penetrating the skull.

TBIs are classified as mild, moderate, or severe, depending on the extent of the damage and its effects on brain function. Even mild TBIs, often referred to as concussions, can have lasting consequences if not properly addressed.

Relevant Statistics

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), TBIs are a leading cause of disability and death in the United States. In 2020 alone, over 64,000 TBI-related deaths were reported nationwide (CDC).

Common Causes of Brain Injuries in Wisconsin

Brain injuries can result from a variety of incidents, including:

  • Motor Vehicle Accidents: Collisions involving cars, trucks, motorcycles, or bicycles are among the leading causes of TBIs.
  • Falls: Slips and falls, particularly among older adults and children, can result in serious head injuries.
  • Workplace Accidents: Construction sites and other hazardous work environments pose significant risks for TBIs.

If your brain injury was caused by someone elseโ€™s negligence or wrongful actions, you may be entitled to compensation for your losses.

The Long-Term Impact of Brain Injuries

Brain injuries often have lasting effects that require ongoing care and adjustment. Many individuals face significant challenges. Some challenges include difficulty returning to work, performing daily activities, and maintaining relationships and social connections. Victims may also find they must manage lifelong medical treatment or assistance.

These challenges make it essential to work with experienced legal professionals who understand the true cost of a brain injury. Our team at Pemberton is dedicated to ensuring you receive compensation that reflects your current and future needs.

Recognizing the Symptoms of a Brain Injury

Symptoms of a brain injury can vary widely, depending on the severity of the trauma. Common symptoms include:

  • Physical Symptoms: Headaches, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, and sensitivity to light or noise.
  • Cognitive Issues: Difficulty concentrating, memory problems, confusion, or slower thinking.
  • Emotional Changes: Mood swings, depression, anxiety, or irritability.
  • Severe Symptoms: Loss of consciousness, seizures, slurred speech, or significant behavioral changes.

Itโ€™s crucial to seek medical attention immediately if you suspect a brain injury, as early diagnosis and treatment can significantly impact recovery.

Experienced, Communicative, Sympathetic

At the core of our representation is our desire to see that clients receive all they need to recover from their injury โ€“ and to recoverย well.ย That starts with compassionate communication as the liaison between the client and the insurance company.

For example, itโ€™s not uncommon for confusingย terminology and jargonย to cause victims to feel lost and give in to the first insurance offer (or sometimes a total denial).

But our personal injury lawyers know what insurance companies are after. They know how to communicate what matters, and to ensure these parties consider all the facts surrounding the case and leave nothing out.
