Lawyer Helping Victims of Traumatic Brain Injuries in Leesburg

Personal Injury Car Accidents Truck Accident Motorcycle Accidents

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most devastating injuries a person can experience. It can disrupt every aspect of a victim's life, from their ability to work and care for themselves to their relationships with family and friends. These injuries often require intensive medical treatment and long-term support. When a TBI is caused by another party's negligence or wrongful actions, victims can work with an attorney to recover compensation for the physical, emotional, and financial harm they have suffered.

Whitlock Law works with people in Leesburg, Virginia who have sustained traumatic brain injuries. We help our clients take steps to hold the responsible parties accountable and make sure they will receive the financial compensation they need to rebuild their lives. By investigating the circumstances of an accident, identifying liable parties, and advocating for full compensation, we help TBI victims address their immediate needs and plan for their future care and stability.

Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries

TBIs can occur in many different situations in which people experience impacts to the head or jolts affecting the head and neck. Common situations where people may suffer brain injuries include:

Motor Vehicle Accidents: Car crashes, motorcycle collisions, and truck accidents can cause victims to strike their heads. High-speed collisions or other factors causing strong blows to the head can lead to severe brain injuries. Negligent drivers, trucking companies, or vehicle manufacturers may be held liable for these injuries.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Accidents: When people on foot or people who ride bicycles on or near the road are struck by vehicles, they are highly vulnerable to head injuries. Negligent drivers may be held liable for the devastating impact that these injuries can have on victims.
Slip and Fall Accidents: Issues such as wet floors, loose carpets, inadequate lighting, or damaged handrails can lead to fall injuries in which a person hits their head on the ground or other objects. Falls from heights or on hazardous surfaces can be especially dangerous, leading to serious brain injuries. Property owners may be held responsible for injuries that occurred because they failed to address dangerous conditions that affected the safety of visitors.
Assaults: Victims of physical violence may sustain TBIs, and perpetrators or negligent security providers may be liable for damages.

The Impact of Traumatic Brain Injuries

TBIs can range from mild concussions to severe injuries and permanent brain damage. Even seemingly minor brain trauma can lead to serious complications over time, and the full impact of a brain injury may not be fully understood until several weeks or months after an injury occurred. The effects of brain injuries may include:

Cognitive Impairments: Victims may experience issues such as memory loss, difficulty concentrating, impaired reasoning, and reduced problem-solving abilities. They may also struggle to speak or understand language, leading to difficulties with communication.
Physical Symptoms: Headaches, dizziness, seizures, fatigue, and loss of coordination may affect a person for some time after an injury, and they may be persistent issues that can lead to permanent impairment. These issues significantly affect a person's mobility and independence.
Emotional and Behavioral Changes: Brain injury victims may experience mood swings, depression, anxiety, or personality changes. These issues can place strain on personal or family relationships.
Sensory Issues: Victims may develop vision or hearing problems, sensitivity to light and sound, or balance disorders. These issues can affect their daily activities and limit their ability to work.
Loss of Independence: Severe TBIs may leave victims unable to perform basic tasks without assistance. In-home care or residential treatment may be needed, and the inability to address their basic needs on their own can cause additional emotional trauma.

Medical Care for TBI Victims

The treatment that may be needed following a traumatic brain injury can be extensive. Multiple forms of medical care may be required for multiple years, and permanent care and assistance may be needed in some cases. Treatment that can help address the effects of a brain injury may include:

Emergency Medical Intervention: Surgical procedures may be performed to relieve pressure on the brain or repair damage that has occurred.
Rehabilitation Services: Physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and other ongoing treatments may be needed to help a person regain skills they have lost.
Psychological Support: Counseling or psychiatric care can help address the emotional and behavioral issues affecting a brain injury victim.
Assistive Devices and Home Modifications: Wheelchairs, communication aids, and changes to a victim's living space may be required to accommodate ongoing disabilities.
Medical Monitoring: Regular assessments may need to be performed to identify issues that can affect a victim, manage complications, and adjust treatment plans.

The costs of treatment for a TBI can be overwhelming, and victims may also face a significant loss of income if they are unable to return to work. At Whitlock Law, we can help ensure that victims will be able to address all of these costs and take steps to meet their continuing needs.

Our considerable experience and focus on personal injury law can give you a significant advantage, because we will use our knowledge and skills to protect your best interests. If insurers do not offer full compensation through settlement negotiations, Attorney Whitlock is a force to be reckoned with in the courtroom.
