Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can be earthshattering for both victims and their families. While you can pursue compensation for your injuries and treatment, no amount of funds can alleviate the lasting physical, emotional, and psychological trauma you’ve endured. If another party was liable for your accident, our Laguna Beach personal injury attorneys can help. Throughout the years, we have recovered more than $300 million in settlements and trial verdicts, a substantial portion of which was in accidents resulting in traumatic brain injuries. If you or a loved one have suffered a brain injury, we encourage you to call us at 1-800-GO-HARRIS. If you cannot make it to our Laguna Beach office, we will come to you.

The Lasting Impact of Traumatic Brain Injuries

At Harris Personal Injury Lawyers, our Laguna Beach brain injury attorneys have represented clients in a broad swath of brain injury cases. Brain injuries can generally be categorized as one of two primary types: traumatic brain injury (“TBI”) and acquired brain injury (“ABI”). ABI describes any type of head injury that is not the result of a birth injury or a hereditary or degenerative condition. This may include stroke, tumors, infectious disease, or a lack of oxygen supply to the brain. TBI is a specific type of ABI that results from external force or strain aimed at the brain or nervous system. Our attorneys are experienced in representing accident victims who have suffered TBIs. In addition to concussions (minor TBIs) and moderate-to-severe TBIs, our Laguna Beach lawyers also represent victims suffering from:  

• Closed head injuries;
• Open head injuries;
• Brain hemorrhages;
• Hematomas;
• Edema;
• Anoxic/hypoxic brain injuries;
• Diffuse brain injuries; and
• Other brain injuries.

• Physical pain and suffering stemming from the accident
• Emotional and psychological distress
• Permanent disfigurement or disability
