Unfortunately, car accidents aren't an uncommon occurrence
in daily life. And, in many of these car accidents, one or more
individuals will likely suffer personal injury.
Brain injuries from car accidents are a particularly challenging
injury. Unlike, say, a broken leg, brain injuries can be invisible
to outsiders and unpredictable for victims. No two brain injuries
are alike, and different individuals can experience wildly
different symptoms after suffering a brain injury.
Below, Michael will discuss how brain injuries from car
accidents are treated in personal injury claims and how they can
differ from other types of common personal injuries.
Brain injuries from car accidents often result from head trauma,
such as a blow to the head or whiplash. These injuries are
classified as "traumatic brain injuries" (TBIs), but
their severity can differ significantly.
