Common causes of brain injuries in cases our Huntington Beach brain injury attorneys represent include:

What Happens When A Person Suffers A Brain Injury?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns that brain injuries are a serious public health problem in the U.S.  They are one of the leading causes of death and disability. Even a seemingly minor bump or blow to the head can cause lasting impacts for both victims and their loved ones.  As experienced Huntington Beach brain injury attorneys, Harris Personal Injury Lawyers help people in our area deal with the adverse effects they are likely to suffer, both now and in the years to come.   A loss of oxygen or any type of sudden bump, blow, or shaking of the head can disrupt neural pathways in the brain. According to the CDC, common symptoms of brain injuries include: 

  • Dizziness and difficulty maintaining balance; 
  • Loss of memory regarding people, places, or things; 
  • Inability to concentrate or maintain your focus; 
  • Difficulty forming thoughts into words or understanding what is being said; 
  • Problems with performing even simple daily tasks; 
  • Chronic headaches and vision disturbances; 
  • Trouble falling asleep or staying awake; 
  • Changes in personality, including increased anger, anxiety, depression, and fits of rage. 

These symptoms may be subtle, appearing weeks or even months after an accident. To protect your health and your rights in filing a claim, it is important to seek treatment for suspected head injuries immediately.  

What Are My Rights In Filing A Brain Injury Lawsuit?

Accidents resulting in brain injuries are often the result of the reckless actions of others. You have the right to hold those at-fault accountable in a brain injury claim.  Our Huntington Beach brain injury attorneys guide you in seeking the compensation you are entitled to in a lawsuit. Under the California Civil Code, this may include: 

  • Economic damages: These cover any current or future medical expenses, lost wages, or other expenses you are likely to incur;  
  • Non-economic damages: These compensate you for the pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment in life you suffer as a result of your accident or injuries; 
  • Punitive damages: This is an additional amount which may be ordered by a judge in cases where the at-fault party acted in a particularly reckless manner.
