We Will Build a Strong Evidence-Based Injury Case
Evidence is a crucial part of proving your case. It substantiates your claim and shows how the negligent actions of another person or organization caused your injury. To build a strong suit, we may use the following types of evidence:
- Medical reports and diagnostic tests such as CT scans, MRI scans, X-rays, brain mapping diagrams, intracranial pressure monitoring results, and doctor’s reports
- Cognitive function and physical ability tests
- Witness statements
- Expert medical testimony from neuropsychologists, neurologists, physical therapists, or psychologists
- Police accident reports
- Employee records
- Wage stubs
The evidence we use will vary depending on how the accident occurred and the severity of the resulting brain injury. However, we leave no stone unturned when building your case. We know where to find the evidence and how to use it to ensure you are fairly compensated for what you have been through.
We Will Assess Your Financial Damages
Before we can seek financial compensation from the at-fault party, we will need to carefully assess the full extent of your injuries, how they affect life, and what this means for the future.
- Current and ongoing medical bills, treatment, and rehabilitation costs
- Lost income and compensation if your long-term working ability is affected
- Expenses needed for your recovery, such as home care or home modifications
- Financial damages for your physical pain and emotional suffering
- Loss of enjoyment for the impact of the injury on your quality of life
- Disability stemming from the coma
If your loved one sadly passed from being in a coma, our wrongful death lawyers help eligible surviving families seek compensation from the at-fault party. Compensable damages in wrongful death lawsuits help families pay the decedent’s funeral and burial costs and medical bills. It can also help them recover their late loved one’s lost wages, loss of companionship, and financial support.
We Will Fight for the Compensation You Deserve
Due to the injury’s complexity and the cost of the treatment required to help coma patients, cases involving serious brain injuries tend to be well defended by the at-fault party and their insurers. However, this does not faze us. We prepare each case with trial-ready attention to detail because we understand the suffering you and your family are going through. We will fight hard for the compensation you need to rebuild your life.
