Brooklyn, NY Brain Injury Lawyer

Brain injuries can vary in overall seriousness. Victims with mild concussions often make a full recovery. However, more serious incidents—like traumatic brain injuries—can cause issues that last a lifetime. An injury can greatly impact a person’s memory, motor function, create speech or language problems, and impact their overall cognitive abilities. Many victims become unrecognizable after a brain injury, and it’s often the family pursuing compensation on their behalf.

The immediate costs families pursue compensation for are medical costs. Besides bills like hospital stays, operations, and medication, a brain injury can mean ongoing care like regular physical therapy. Victims may also need to have their homes or apartments remodeled, which is common if a brain injury leads to the loss of certain motor functions. Modifications may include installing ramps, lowering counters and shelves, adding non-slip flooring, and more.

Besides immediate and long-term medical costs, our team will factor in other costs into our estimation. These costs may include lost wages, emotional distress, and pain and suffering. You may also be entitled to long-term disability payments. Our team always fights for the maximum compensation, and we always push back when insurance companies are unwilling to offer a fair settlement.
