Brain Injury

In many cases, brain injuries are catastrophic to their victims. The majority of brain injuries in Utah happen as a result of car and truck accidents. In fact, nearly half of reported brain injuries can be attributed to vehicle crashes. The high velocity impact of a serious accident can cause the brain to move around inside the skull, and depending on how violent this movement is a variety of complications can arise. Utah brain injuries also occur on construction sites, in falls, and sports such as football, hockey and boxing. If you or a loved one has experienced a brain injury, the Utah personal injury attorneys at Day Shell & Liljenquist L.C. can help you pursue a claim to recover damages from parties that contributed to the injury.

Brain injuries can range in their severity from slight concussions to much more serious compressed skull fractures. Victims of brain injuries may experience problems with memory, communication, senses, and behavior. In some cases these effects can last a lifetime; and can even make victims more susceptible to diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.

Treatment for brain injuries can require long-term medical care that may include surgeries, testing, and rehabilitation. The costs for the necessary medical treatment can be more than brain injury victims and their families can afford. If the brain injury that you or your loved one has suffered was caused by someone else's negligence, you may be entitled to collect money damages for your medical bills and pain and suffering.
