Birmingham Brain Injury Lawyer

If you’ve suffered a traumatic brain injury, getting your life back isn’t going to be easy. Fortunately, a Birmingham brain injury attorney can help you recover the compensation you need.

Brain injuries are some of the most serious injuries you can suffer—your brain is vital to every part of your life—the control center of the body. When it’s damaged, it can be difficult to function normally. At worst, it can be life-threatening. 

That’s why many victims work with an accomplished legal team to make sure they get the care and compensation they deserve after an accident. At the Henry Dailey Law Firm, we’re committed to making this happen. If you’re struggling with your case, call a Birmingham brain injury lawyer for help getting back on your feet and recovering.  

Brain Injuries Are Long-Term Wounds

Unfortunately, when you have a head injury, you’ll likely be suffering for a long time because of it. No matter how small it may seem, even a concussion can take months of pain and symptoms before you’re completely recovered. 

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can happen any time you suffer a serious enough blow to the head to cause damage. You might experience a moment or two of unconsciousness after a fall, or you might suffer long-term losses in accidents like car crashes and especially violent injuries. When the injury is serious enough, it could cause skull fractures and other major injuries. 

A brain injury will likely last for a long time. Other injuries, like bone fractures, take time to heal, as well, but as intricate and delicate as the brain is, even a small concussion can affect you months after the accident, and more serious injuries can take years before you’re able to return to taking care of yourself. 

If you’ve suffered a TBI in Birmingham, no matter how small it may seem, you likely need help pursuing the compensation you deserve. An attorney from our firm can help with that.

Fair Compensation for a Brain Injury in Birmingham

A TBI will take time to heal, which stretches the costs of a brain injury out over the course of weeks, months, or even years. When your expenses include multiple hospital visits, it can be difficult to keep up with the bills. 

If someone else’s negligent actions caused your brain injury, you deserve compensation for severe symptoms that will cause long-term disruptions in your daily life—long-term effects on your body, your finances, and your family. You need to be prepared for a long list of damages when you’ve suffered a TBI, such as the following: 

• Past and current medical expenses
• Lost wages
• Loss of earning capacity
• Mental anguish
• Loss of enjoyment of life

Your brain injury lawyer in Birmingham can help you recover compensation for these and other damages through a personal injury claim.

The Laws That Will Affect Your Case

You have the right to fight back and get compensation from the person who made this mess. With the right firm behind you, you could see compensation for all of the damages you’ve suffered. 

But it’s not as simple as filing your claim and moving on—you’ll need to be prepared for the defenses against your case and the Alabama statutes that govern lawsuits. For example, you’ll need to act within two years, or you could have your case dismissed, leaving you with the entire bill. 

In court, there’s still a chance for your case to be dismissed. Alabama observes pure contributory negligence, which means that any fault on your part, no matter how minor, could mean you won’t receive any compensation. While few accidents are completely the fault of one party, it will be important to prepare to demonstrate that the other party holds all of the blame.

It can be easy to make one little mistake and be barred from recovery, but with a brain injury attorney in Birmingham on your side, your chances are better. We want to make sure your case is a successful one.
