Financial Compensation and Your Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) could be temporary or permanent, depending on where and how you were injured. In either case, you and your family will likely experience many types of damages, including but not limited to:- Medical expenses, ranging from emergency treatment and hospitalization to long-term care and therapy
- Loss of income, both now and in the future, if your injury affects your ability to work regularly or find a job
- Property damage, if you lost valuable personal items (e.g., a motor vehicle) in the same accident that caused your injury
- Other related expenses, such as hiring outside help or renovating your home to accommodate permanent disabilities
- Pain and suffering for all physical and psychological symptoms associated with your physical injuries
- Disability, including the loss of both physical and intellectual abilities, caused by your accident
- Diminished quality of life, for all of the ways that your life has changed for the worse since you were injured

- Medical malpractice, which could occur when a medical professional fails to diagnose or misdiagnoses a condition, prescribes an inappropriate treatment, or makes a mistake when applying treatment
- Nursing home abuse, such as when the home’s staff fails to assist residents in moving around or to provide necessary medical care, or when the staff physically abuses residents
- Construction accidents, such as falls from heights, falling object accidents, equipment malfunctions, or electric shocks
