Traumatic Brain Injury Compensation
Traumatic brain injuries can be devastating and life-altering. TBIs can affect sufferers physically, mentally, and emotionally and cause severe side effects and complications. If another party is responsible for your injury, you and your family should not have to face financial hardships on top of coping with serious health issues.
Our California traumatic brain injury lawyers can seek damages to pay for your medical treatment, long-term care needs, and intangible losses. In general, TBI compensation may include:
- Medical expenses. Because severe TBIs can cause permanent complications, the lifetime cost of medical treatment can be significant. Our attorneys can help you pursue current losses and seek estimates for your future care needs. We can pursue compensation for emergency services, medical procedures, medical devices and equipment, physical and cognitive therapy, long-term nursing, in-home health services, and life care.
- Loss of income. If a TBI prevents you or a loved one from working, we can seek lost wages and employment benefits, lost future income, and compensation for diminished earning capacity.
- Assistance with household services and activities of daily living (ADLs). Household services include cooking, cleaning, laundry, childcare, transportation, home maintenance, and other chores you may be unable to perform because of your TBI. ADLs include bathing, dressing, eating, and using the bathroom.
- Pain and suffering. We can pursue monetary damages for quality-of-life reductions, physical pain, loss of mobility, mental anguish, emotional suffering, and loss of enjoyment.
- Wrongful death. Our wrongful death attorneys in California serve the families of fatally injured parties. If your loved one died because of a TBI, we can pursue awards for medical bills, burial and funeral expenses, lost financial support, lost services, and loss of your family member’s care, guidance, and society.

Call Us NowHow Long Do You Have to File a TBI Lawsuit in California?
You must file most personal injury lawsuits in California within two years of your accident, according to CCP § 335.1. If we cannot resolve your case with an insurance settlement, we must take legal action before the statute of limitations expires. If time runs out, the court will likely refuse to hear your claim, even if you have solid proof that another party is liable.
