Your brain is the most complex organ in your body, and an injury to the area can have devastating consequences for your whole body. Head trauma can lead to short-term or lifelong injuries, and if your injury occurred as a result of someone else’s fault or negligence, you need to seek out a compensation award. We explain how we can help you earn the award amount your rightfully entitled to in today’s blog.
The Importance Of Head Injury Compensation
Head injuries are arguably the most complex injury cases in the industry because every injury affects patients differently. While two arm fractures can be compensated in a similar manner, two patients who suffer a head injury in a car accident may have vastly different symptoms. One client may have frequent headaches and recurrent vertigo, while the other may have lifelong balance issues. Recovering from these injuries, and setting a fair compensation amount for all of these varying symptoms is a unique challenge, and one that should only be done with the assistance of an injury lawyer.
Aside from the fact that setting a compensation award amount is a complex formula based on a number of different factors, there’s another thing to consider – the stakes. Head injuries can stick with you for life and predispose a person to mental health disorders like anxiety and depression. All of these things can impact your ability to earn a living and advance in your career, meaning a simple head injury can cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost future earnings potential.
And that doesn’t even factor in the oftentimes incredible medical bills associated with a head injury. Even if you don’t need surgery, concussion symptoms can linger for months or years, and that will require regular medical treatment. If you need surgery and rehabilitation, odds are you’ll have a hefty bill even after insurance pays their portion. Others may need lifelong medication to manage their vertigo or migraines, and that’s another recurring expense every month.
So when you consider the oftentimes hefty bills and potential to affect the rest of your life, it’s imperative that you take your injury claim seriously and only move forward with a professional in your corner.
