Long Island Brain Injury Lawyer

Brain injuries will often have a significant impact on the victim’s life. If your brain injuries were caused in an accident that was due to another party’s negligence or misconduct, you’re likely entitled to compensation for your suffering.

However, your injuries could be making it difficult for you to focus on anything else. Our Long Island personal injury lawyer at Friedman & Simon, L.L.P. will advocate for you and seek the financial recovery you need.

Recoverable Damages for Long Island Brain Injury Cases

When you retain our firm to provide effective legal representation, the Long Island personal injury lawyer assigned to advocate on your behalf will determine, in consultation with you, how much compensation you should seek in your brain injury case. There are various types of damages that you could receive based on the severity of your injuries, the various ways your life has been affected by the accident, and your prognosis.

We Will Seek Economic and Non-Economic Brain Injury Damages on Your Behalf

To ensure all losses are considered accordingly, damages are often split up into categories referred to as economic damages and non-economic damages. Economic damages account for all of your financial losses, while non-economic damages cover the intangible ways your life has been affected by your injuries.

Traumatic brain injuries are known for being particularly devastating. It is important to have all your costs covered by the liable party, so you are able to begin rebuilding your life. Examples of both economic damages and non-economic damages that could be paid out in a Long Island brain injury case include:

• Loss of income and other employee benefits
• Existing and future healthcare costs
• Scarring and disfigurement
• Costs of home health care and medical equipment
• Psychological trauma, emotional distress, and mental anguish
• Physical pain and suffering
• Loss of consortium (These are the special types of damages, recognized by law, a person experiences when their spouse suffers a personal injury.) 
• Personal property damages

If you are interested in learning more about how much your brain injury case is worth, Friedman & Simon, L.L.P. is here for you. We will go over every loss in-depth to ensure you are being appropriately compensated for your damages.
