Brain Injuries

Suffering brain injuries, especially at the hands of another person, can be extremely traumatizing, and the road to recovery may be long and expensive.

Our personal injury attorneys at Mark A. Hammer Inc., have achieved an enviable track record of results in helping brain injury victims file claims against negligent motorists, doctors, and trucking companies for the compensation they needed to cover medical expenses and lost wages.

Mark A. Hammer Inc., is proud to count brain injury law as one of our many practice areas, to help those in need. Our attorneys understand that brain injuries not only have an impact on the victim’s financial stability, but also effects on their quality of life.

If you or a loved one have suffered a brain injury because of someone else’s negligence, we may be able to help you recover compensation for economic damages, as well as any intangible losses, such as loss of life’s enjoyment.

When an individual files a lawsuit after suffering a brain injury, they may be able to recoup compensation for economic and non-economic damages:

Medical Bills: In a brain injury lawsuit, victims may claim compensation for any medical bills related to the injury. For example, a person may be able to file a lawsuit to gain compensation for expenses related to doctors’ visits, hospitalization, rehabilitation, and occupational therapy.

Pain and Suffering: Victims of brain injuries may be eligible to pursue monetary damages for any lasting physical or emotional pain, such as brain damage or amnesia.

Loss of Life’s Enjoyment: In a successful brain injury lawsuit, the plaintiff may also be entitled to compensation for their inability to participate in activities that they once enjoyed.

Lost Wages: Individuals who suffer brain injuries may miss substantial time at work. By filing a brain injury lawsuit, victims may be able to recover compensation for any lost wages that resulted from the brain trauma. Additionally, victims may also receive compensation for any damage to their future earning ability.

Wrongful Death: When a brain injury is fatal, the victims’ family may be able to file a wrongful death lawsuit. In these cases, the family can pursue compensation for any financial damages, such as funeral costs or lost wages, resulting from their loved one’s death.
Members of the family may also be able to file a lawsuit for the unique losses they face, including pain and suffering and loss of companionship.
