Baltimore Brain Injury Lawyers
A brain injury occurs when there is sudden trauma to the head that causes sufficient damage to the brain. Many times a brain injury can be noted as anything from a mild concussion to severe injuries, such as coma or death. There are also instances where brain injuries are incurred while under the care of a medical physician. For example, a patient may be given a lethal or damaging dose of medication or due to inexperience a surgeon may make simple mistakes on the operating table. No matter what the case, you need a brain injury lawyer that can help you or your family get the compensation they deserve.
Whether your head was injured in a motorcycle accident, an automobile accident, a slip and fall or any one of a number of different accidents, it is important to familiarize yourself with the types of brain injuries you might incur.
• Concussions – This pushes the brain up against the skull, often a result of a blow to the head.
• Contusions – Impact to the head causes bruising of the brain.
• Coup-Contrecoup – This is a brain injury that occurs on both sides of the brain due to the impact of the blow and of the brain being hit against the side of the skull.
• Recurrent Traumatic Brain Injury – An injury suffered before the proper healing of an initial injury to the brain.
• Diffuse Axonal Injury – Most commonly resulting in coma or indefinite unconsciousness, this brain injury occurs when the brain shifts and floats around in the skull.
