Traumatic Brain Injury

Consequences of a closed head trauma may be obvious where the victim dies such as in a wrongful death case, requires life support, or lives with an easily observable mental disability. However, long-term damage from a mild traumatic brain injury may be more subtle and difficult to demonstrate.

Following a blow to the head, you or your loved one may experience suffering and behavioral changes.

  • Memory loss
  • Mood swings
  • Learning disability
  • Chronic fatigue
  • Confusion

Too often, these symptoms are misdiagnosed as psychiatric disorders, and the patient is treated for depression or anxiety without addressing the underlying neurological damage. Our closed head trauma attorneys have the skill, the resources, and the determination to present a compelling case for you or your loved one.

Long-Term Costs of Traumatic Brain Injury and Closed Head Trauma

When evaluating what effect a traumatic brain injury has had on our clients, our firm engages the services of independent experts, including but not limited to, neurologists, neuropsychologists, neuropsychiatrists and neuro-rehabilitative specialists. These experts help us explain to the jury the full-extent of the injuries suffered and how medical care professionals can assist in making this person’s life better.

  • What is the cost of losing some or all of your brain function?
  • What is the effect of a child’s learning disability on future income?
  • What is the value of memory?
  • What do you lose when you suffer chronic depression?

We prepare every case for trial. Our reputation as successful trial attorneys often allows us to negotiate a fair settlement with the insurance company before the case goes to court. For general information, visit our personal injury practice center.

We'll put our experience and dedication to work for you. If there is no recovery, there is no fee. Contact our Kansas City, Missouri, brain injury attorneys and schedule a free consultation about your case.
