Brain Injury sometimes referred to as Traumatic Brain Injury or TBI, is a catastrophic injury that often results in life-long impairment or death, particularly if not properly treated right away. Brain injury can result from a car accident, a slip and fall act of violence such as mugging, assault or other attacks, sporting accidents and workplace accidents.

The most important thing in a brain injury case is IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION. Even if you don’t have serious symptoms, if you strike your head and lose consciousness for even one second, you should seek prompt medical attention. People who claim to feel fine immediately after head trauma has DIED hours later due to a brain haemorrhage. You may not feel injured and may think you are fine, even if you are not. This is especially true of concussions. Victims may feel a little sore or nauseous but think that it will get better and go away by itself.

Unfortunately, brain injury symptoms tend to get worse if they are not quickly treated. All mild, moderate and severe symptoms should be taken seriously. If you bumped your head and are feeling confused, lightheaded, unbalanced or irritable, you should see a doctor right away. If you lost consciousness, vomited, had a seizure, have a big headache or have a severe cut to your head, you need emergency care IMMEDIATELY, so do not delay: play it safe and get medical attention NOW! Then call a lawyer.
