Head Injuries

A head or brain injury can be sustained through any impact to the skull. They can occur under many different circumstances, including falls and auto accidents. Some common symptoms of head injuries are:

• Irritability
• Impaired judgment
• Disturbed sleep
• Emotional outbursts
• Slowed thinking
• Problems seeing or speaking
• Loss of balance
• Severe headaches

Head injuries can have devastating consequences for victims and their loved ones. In addition to the traumatizing effects on the victim’s personal life, head injuries can also prevent people from working for long periods of time, and possibly keep them from ever again working to their full capacity. Coupled with expensive medical bills, the financial impact is one of the most difficult, and often overlooked, consequences of a head injury; however, an experienced attorney is often able to help. Many head injuries are the result of someone else’s negligence – a slippery floor that causes a fall, for example – and Zevin & Rosenbloum can help you secure compensation in such cases.
