What Are the Symptoms of a Brain Injury?

Brain injuries can be very serious. Even a mild brain injury can leave you cognitively impaired, making it difficult to perform daily tasks, think as clearly as you once used to, and more.

Although traumatic, these injuries oftentimes go undiagnosed because the signs and symptoms can be so subtle. In many accidents, brain injuries are only apparent to the person suffering from the injury, and his or her friends or family. For this reason, it is important to know and understand the symptoms of a brain injury so that you can recognize the signs after a serious accident.

Here are some of the most common signs and symptoms that you may have a brain injury in Virginia:

Concentration and attention difficulties
Headaches
Irritability or mood changes
Depression
Anxiety
Sleep disturbances or insomnia
Blurred vision
Seizure
Nausea
Fatigue
Orientation problems

If you were in an accident and think you may have a brain injury, it is critical that you speak to your doctor. Describe all symptoms that you have experienced. Next, contact a Richmond brain injury lawyer to help you explain the injury to a jury and insurance company. This will maximize your opportunity to get the compensation you need to heal.

A Unique Focus On Traumatic Brain Injuries

My focus on representing TBI survivors is also unique. Most personal injury lawyers cast a very large net. They pursue, and will gladly accept, any case (large or small) that falls under the general “personal injury” heading. You can spot these practices by looking at their websites and clicking on the “practice areas” drop-down list. What you will see are many practice areas, only one of which will be “traumatic brain injury.” Think of these firms as the Wal-Mart Supercenters of the personal injury lawyer world. Wal-Mart has at least one of everything. The same can be said of most personal injury firms. They handle everything.

Nothing is wrong with such retail personal injury practices. My point is not to criticize that “generalist” approach to personal injury law. My point is simply to illustrate that my practice is different, just like a small nursery selling 20 different types of specialty garden hoses is different than a Wal-Mart selling one type of garden hose. Just like the nursery, I focus on one type of personal injury case – the traumatic brain injury case – and one type of client – the traumatic brain injury survivor.
