Fishers Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyer

According to the Indiana State Department of Health, traumatic brain injury is one of the primary causes of patient hospitalization in Indiana. Thousands of Indiana residents enter the hospital system each year with traumatic brain injuries, and more than 112,000 Indiana residents live with chronic disabilities due to TBI. 

If you or someone you love is living with the effects of TBI, you may be able to seek compensation if the injury occurred because of someone else’s actions. A Fishers traumatic brain injury lawyer at Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers can provide a free case analysis and help you understand your legal rights to fair compensation under Indiana law.

You Need an Attorney Who Is on Your Side

Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers has an entire team of attorneys dedicated to providing injury victims with personalized representation and support. We understand the toll that a traumatic brain injury can take on you and your loved ones. It is our goal to reduce the pressure by handling the legal aspects of your claim, so you can focus on recovering from your injuries.

Our Fishers TBI lawyers will:

  • Obtain evidence to support your claim
  • Determine the financial value of your losses
  • File a claim with the insurance company for your total losses
  • Aggressively negotiate for a fair settlement on your behalf
  • File an injury lawsuit for fair compensation, if an agreement is not reached

At Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers, we maintain that every victim deserves compensation for injuries they received due to someone else’s negligence. We will uphold your right to fair compensation, no matter how aggressive the other party’s tactics. Our attorneys will fight to ensure that you receive the compensation you deserve.

Protect Your Legal Rights 

When you are injured due to someone else’s actions, the insurance company will often try to reduce their liability by offering a lowball settlement or shifting the blame. An insurance company’s initial settlement offer rarely covers more than basic hospital expenses, and most settlements come with a waiver of liability that prevents you from seeking additional compensation. 

If you sign a settlement agreement before consulting with an attorney, you could lose hundreds of thousands of dollars in compensation. Protect yourself from unscrupulous tactics by following these guidelines:

  • Do not admit fault, even if you think you might be partially to blame.
  • Do not make any official statements until you speak to an attorney.
  • Do not say anything that could be construed as an admission of fault, even to the police or your own insurance company.
  • Do not discuss the accident while your case is ongoing, even on social media. 
  • Do not speculate about the cause of the accident in your statements to insurance or police. Stick to the facts. 
  • Do contact an attorney as soon as possible.

A Fishers traumatic brain injury attorney from Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers can shield you from shady insurance companies and unfair settlement offers. They will help you establish fault in the accident and ensure that the guilty parties are held accountable for your injuries.

What You Should Know About Traumatic Brain Injuries

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) define traumatic brain injury as “an injury that affects how the brain works”. TBI may be mild, moderate, or severe. 

Patients with mild TBI can present a variety of symptoms, such as: 

  • Headaches
  • Insomnia
  • Irritability
  • Confusion
  • Blurred vision
  • Sensitivity to light and sound
  • Bad smells or tastes with no source

Moderate and severe TBI patients can have any of the above symptoms, as well as:

  • Uncoordinated movement
  • Loss of cognitive function
  • Vomiting and nausea
  • Dizziness
  • Loss of consciousness
  • Inability to wake up
  • Coma

If you have experienced a jolt or blow to the head and have any of the above symptoms, seek medical aid right away. Untreated TBI can worsen quickly and cause significant long-term health issues.

What Causes a Traumatic Brain Injury?

Traumatic brain injury is caused when the brain is struck, pierced, or jolted. The brain can be injured through contact with an object or when it strikes the inside of the skull due to a sudden head movement. 

According to the CDC, almost half of all traumatic brain injuries in the U.S. happen when people fall unexpectedly. Other causes of TBI include: 

  • When a firearm is discharged at the head
  • When the head is pierced by a bullet or other object
  • When the head is struck by a blunt object
  • When the head is jolted by a sudden stop or change in direction, as in a car accident

If you believe you have a TBI due to someone else’s actions, contact a Fishers TBI lawyer as soon as possible to learn about your legal rights and possible next steps.

Damages for Fishers, Indiana Traumatic Brain Injury Claims

Over the course of their lifetime, a victim who suffers a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury can pay anywhere between $1 million and $3 million for costs associated with their injury. If you were injured due to someone else’s actions, you should not be expected to pay for the losses you incurred as a result. 

The state of Indiana allows injury victims to seek compensation for losses they incurred due to someone else’s negligence. You can include both economic and non-economic damages in your claim, including hospital bills, lost income, therapy, pain and suffering, and rehabilitation costs.

Our Fishers traumatic brain injury lawyers will examine your claim to determine who is at fault and help you establish which damages you can claim.

Filing a Wrongful Death Claim

If you lost a loved one due to a traumatic brain injury, we extend our sincere condolences. We understand that a financial settlement cannot make up for your loss. However, a wrongful death attorney can help you obtain compensation to cover the costs associated with the loss of your loved one, including lost income, funeral expenses, and loss of companionship. 

Speak with a wrongful death attorney at Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers today to discuss your options.

To ensure the best chance for a positive outcome, reach out to a Fishers TBI attorney as soon as you can after the accident.
