There are different types of head injuries with different levels of severity. They may vary from minor contusions to serious traumatic brain injuries. Even a minor head injury may bring a lifetime of changes.
Concussions are common in car wrecks. The effects may last for days, weeks or in severe cases be permanent. During that time victims may be unable to work or drive. The extent of the damage may not even be realized by brain injury victims until well after the initial accident.
A victim who sustained a head or brain injury caused by the negligent or reckless actions of another person may be eligible for monetary compensation. Medical bills, costs of therapy and lost wages from missed work and other damages are recoverable. This may include the permanent effects from your injury, even if they are currently unclear or unknown to you.
