What Is a Brain Injury?
Brain injuries can result from a wide range of accidents, including car accidents, truck accidents, slip and falls, motorcycle accidents, sports accidents, blasts, and physical attacks.
If you want to demand compensation for your head injury or the traumatic brain injury that someone you loved sustained, you need to work with a medical professional to elaborate on:
- The extent of the brain injury in question
- The circumstances that led to the brain injury
- What medical support you or a loved one need to recover from the brain injury
Do not wait to get medical attention after an accident. Untreated brain injuries can lead to prolonged dizziness, loss of your short- or long-term memory, reduced coordination, and conditions that may impact your ability to meet your everyday needs.
Primary and Secondary Brain Injury
There are two types of brain injuries. Primary injuries are caused by direct trauma and include injuries caused by bruised or damaged blood vessels.
Secondary injuries are caused by indirect trauma and can result in different complications, including low blood pressure, hypoxia, swelling, blood flow changes, and increased intracranial pressure.
Anoxic Brain Injury
This type of brain injury can result from both internal and external forces, such as various forms of anemia and other diseases like asthma.
Also, certain types of medication overdose, choking, strangulation, smoke inhalation, and drowning can cause severe cases of anoxia and hypoxia.
Open Head Injury
Open head injuries result whenever a low or high-velocity projectile penetrates the skull. Penetrating brain injuries may be caused by skull bone fragments or foreign objects forced into the brain.
These are very serious injuries and can cause permanent disability or death in some cases.

When Should You Contact a Sugar Land Brain Injury Lawyer?
Treating a brain injury can take a lot of time and financial resources. Unfortunately, it’s often not safe for brain injury victims to go back to work while they’re contending with their injuries, meaning that your income may suffer while you recover. If you want to secure the support you need to overcome your most pressing expenses, you need help.
We encourage you to book a free case consultation with an experienced Sugar Land brain injury attorney sooner rather than later to discuss the best ways to financially recover from your losses. We are here to help you pursue an insurance claim or file a traumatic brain injury lawsuit, depending on how you want to recover.

What Can an Experienced Lawyer Do for You?
Our legal team is here to help you recover in the way that suits you best. You can work with us to:
- Investigate what specific instances of negligence led to your injuries
- Interpret the laws that let you take action on behalf of yourself or an injured loved one, as applicable
- Estimate the value of the expenses you’ve incurred as a result of your traumatic brain injury, including your medical bills and lost wages
- Name the right people liable for your losses

We’re here to help you undergo the claims process within that timeline without infringing on your need to physically recover.

What Compensation Can You Ask for After a Brain Injury?
Filing a claim in the wake of a brain injury allows you to demand compensation based on the cost of the economic and non-economic expenses you incurred. These losses vary between cases, as no two brain injuries look alike.
Working with our legal team allows you to independently account for your post-accident expenses and estimate the value of your desired settlement accordingly.
Our legal team has helped injured victims demand compensation for their:
- Emergency room fees
- Specialist care
- Prolonged medical stays and treatments
- Lost wages during time spent away from work
- Lost benefits, if you’re not able to return to work
- Property damage
- Reduced quality of life
- Temporary or permanent disabilities
- Emotional distress
- Pain and suffering
You do not have to go to trial to ask for compensation based on these losses. We’re prepared to help you negotiate with a liable party and insurers, provided that they’re willing to meet with you.
However, working with our team makes it easier to preserve your right to demand compensation in front of a judge, particularly if a liable party won’t acknowledge the true value of your losses.
