Traumatic Brain and Spinal InjuriesTraumatic brain injury (commonly referred to as TBI) is sudden physical damage to the brain, not associated to brain injuries that are hereditary, congential or degenerative, or brain injuries which were induced by birth trauma, toxic substances, or disease.
Traumatic brain injury is an area of law that is particularly complex to litigate because of the difficulty of proving the facts and the exact nature and extent of the injury.
Each year, an estimated 1.4 million people in the U.S. sustain a TBI. The severity of a TBI can range from a mild concussion to the extremes of a coma or even death. At least 5.3 million Americans currently live with disabilities resulting from TBI.
The leading causes of these TBI injuries are:
- Vehicle accidents and crashes
- Firearm use
- Slips and / or falls
