Your Go-To TBI Lawyer

Types of Accidents Leading to Traumatic Brain Injuries

Motor vehicle collisions, including car accidents, truck accidents, and motorcycle accidents, are a common cause of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). The sudden impact or forceful jolt experienced during a collision can result in the brain striking the skull’s interior, leading to various types of brain injuries.

Participating in sports and recreational activities such as football, soccer, hockey, and skiing can also pose a risk of sustaining a significant brain injury. Contact sports predominantly carry a higher risk due to the potential for direct blows to the head or violent collisions with other players or equipment, leading to concussions or more severe TBIs.

In some cases, traumatic brain injuries can occur as a result of workplace accidents, particularly in industries involving construction, manufacturing, or transportation. Falls from heights, being struck by falling objects, or being involved in machinery accidents can all lead to head injuries with varying degrees of severity.

Pedestrians and cyclists are vulnerable road users who face a heightened risk of sustaining traumatic brain injuries. The impact of a vehicle collision or being thrown from a bicycle can cause the head to strike the ground or other objects, resulting in concussions, skull fractures, or other brain injuries.

Frequently Asked
Questions

Retaining a lawyer as soon as possible post-accident is extremely important. Richard Edwards will guide you through important first steps and provide critical guidance throughout the process. It is important to note that you have a 2-year limitation from the accident date to file a claim against the other party involved in the accident. 

At Edwards Injury Law, our initial consultation is always free of charge, even if you decide not to open a claim. Our brain and injury law firm works on a contingency basis, which means that we will deduct an agreed-upon percentage of your settlement only at the conclusion of your case. We will never charge you for any lawyer fees or disbursements while we are working on your personal injury claim.

If you choose to accept this compensation, your claim will be considered closed. You will not be able to re-open it in the event you feel you deserve more money. It is important to note that insurance companies may not offer you what your claim is worth. If you think you are not being provided with a fair offer, you should contact a personal injury lawyer. Richard Edwards will assess your claim to its full potential.
