Ohio Severe Brain Injury Lawyer
More than a million Americans suffer closed-head brain injuries on an annual basis in car accidents, falls, as the result of medical malpractice, assaults and many other causes. Traumatic brain injuries occur when there is a sudden impact to the brain as it slams into the interior of the skull. These can be extremely debilitating and often life-changing injuries for victims and can greatly impact the lives of their families as well. The impact of the most severe brain injuries is immediately apparent. Less severe brain injuries may not be initially detectable, but can cause significant behavioral changes or cognitive problems over time.
Contact us for a free consultation if you or a loved one was the victim of any type of brain injury.
Any brain injury is an extremely serious matter that can impact the victim for many years, if not a lifetime. No matter how your brain injury happened or what level of severity it may be, it is important for you to seek medical attention for a thorough analysis. Having a complete record of your injury and the treatment you received can help to establish a pattern of the medical issues you encountered and the progression of your injuries. — Partner Peter H.

Indications of a Brain Injury
Though the type and severity of the symptoms will vary from one person to another, there are a number of telltale signs that can indicate a brain injury. Some of the more common symptoms of brain injury can include:
- Forgetfulness
- Learning difficulties
- Difficulty concentrating
- Tiredness/fatigue
- Headaches/pain
- Impaired judgment
- Personality changes, including impulsive or aggressive behavior or outbursts
- Problems with organization
- Restlessness/difficulty sleeping
In their evaluation of brain injury claims, insurance companies may attempt to classify them as mild in order to minimize their financial exposure. The truth of the matter is that there are no "mild" brain injuries. While some are clearly more severe than others, any attempt to refer to a brain injury as mild is irresponsible. Our Cleveland mild brain injury lawyers know how to investigate these cases and identify the negligent parties. We work to fully understand how the injury occurred and develop a customized plan designed to secure the best possible outcome.
