Damages You Can Expect from a Skull Fracture in Lafayette
Unfortunately, our catastrophic injury lawyers serving Lafayette have encountered clients with skull fractures. Though each injury is different, we understand the pain, financial costs, long recovery, and psychological toll that skull fractures impose.
Our team will seek compensation for all of your recoverable damages, which may include:
Medical Expenses
Columbia University Neurosurgery explains that each patient needs a personalized treatment plan for their skull fracture. These injuries vary in their type and severity, and some patients need surgery while others do not.
Potential medical services for a skull fracture include:
- Surgery
- Hospitalization (which Columbia notes is generally necessary)
- Medications to prevent pain
- Antibiotics to prevent infection
- Medical equipment to stabilize the skull and surrounding body parts
Even once your initial injury has healed, you may need medical care for enduring symptoms related to the injury. Our team will work with your doctors and our medical experts to determine the cost of all necessary medical care.
Rehabilitation Costs
When a skull fracture occurs along with a brain injury, the victim may need rehabilitation. Johns Hopkins Medicine notes that rehabilitation can improve symptoms of a brain injury. We’ll work to ensure that you receive total compensation for any rehab you’ll need, either now or in the future.

A skull fracture can cause pain and suffering for both the victim and their loved ones. A victim may experience:
- Intense physical pain
