Dallas Brain Injury Lawyer

John David Hart: Dallas' Brain Injury Lawyer

A traumatic brain injury undoubtedly affects not only the victim, but the lives of those who surround them. And the effects of a brain injury can be totally life-altering — even after a simple head injury. Serious personal injuries to a person's personality, vision and entire body can happen; even paralysis can result from a brain injury. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has said that the most likely kind of injury to result in serious personal injury or wrongful death is a brain injury.  

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

A brain injury can happen after violent impacts to the skull disturb brain tissue and disrupt connections in the brain. The skull, a thick bone structure, protects the fragile brain; the brain is also protected by a fluid that absorbs minor impacts. When these protectors of the brain aren't enough and a brain injury occurs, the results can be extremely damaging to the victim. The scientific name for this kind of brain injury is traumatic brain injury, or TBI. 

Traumatic Brain Injury Damages

A traumatic brain injury damages more than just the brain — loved ones, in addition to the victim, are affected by the injury. This is because the normal function of the brain is disrupted by a traumatic brain injury. The results can be anywhere from mild brain damage, where mental status or consciousness may be affected briefly, to extreme brain damage, where paralysis and prolonged amnesia are possible. A brain injury can be so mild that a person may not even be aware that they have suffered a brain injury. Whether you or a loved one has suffered a mild or an extreme brain injury, determining the legal damages can be very difficult. Many things must be weighed, from how much your sight is worth to how much remembering and recognizing your loved ones is worth. An experienced brain injury lawyer can help you deal with the situation.
