A traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs when a sudden impact, blow, jolt, or penetrating injury disrupts normal brain function. TBIs range from mild concussions to severe brain damage, but even so-called “mild” injuries can have lasting effects.
Traumatic brain injuries may result from:
In Richardson and across the DFW Metroplex, TBIs frequently occur on major roadways such as US-75 and LBJ Freeway (I-635), as well as in workplaces, residential properties, and public spaces.
Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents are leading causes of TBIs. High-speed collisions and rollovers can cause the brain to strike the inside of the skull, even when seatbelts and airbags are used.
Falls are a major cause of brain injuries, particularly among older adults and children. Slip and fall accidents, ladder falls, and falls from unsafe properties often result in head trauma.
Construction site accidents, industrial incidents, and falls at work can cause severe head injuries, especially when safety equipment is missing or improperly used.
Unsafe consumer products, defective helmets, and faulty equipment can fail to protect users during impacts, increasing the risk of brain injury.
Often referred to as concussions, mild TBIs may still cause:
Symptoms may appear days or weeks after the injury.
Moderate TBIs may involve loss of consciousness and more pronounced cognitive and physical impairments, often requiring hospitalization and rehabilitation.
Severe TBIs may result in extended unconsciousness, permanent disability, or death. Victims often require lifelong medical care and assistance.
Brain injuries can affect nearly every part of a person’s life. Long-term consequences may include:
Families often face significant emotional and financial strain as they adjust to new caregiving roles.
Traumatic brain injury cases are challenging because symptoms are not always immediately visible. Insurance companies may attempt to minimize the severity of the injury or argue that symptoms are unrelated to the accident.
TBI cases often involve:
Fielding Law focuses on building cases that clearly connect the injury to the accident and demonstrate the full scope of long-term effects.
To pursue compensation, an injured person generally must establish:
Evidence may include medical records, accident reports, witness statements, expert opinions, and documentation of long-term impairments.
Treatment for traumatic brain injuries varies based on severity but may include:
Many TBI victims receive treatment at facilities such as Baylor University Medical Center or Parkland Hospital before transitioning to rehabilitation and outpatient care.
Most traumatic brain injury claims in Texas are subject to a two-year statute of limitations. This deadline generally begins on the date of the injury.
In some cases, delayed symptom onset or injuries involving minors may affect timing. Because TBI cases require extensive evidence and expert involvement, early legal guidance is essential.
Depending on the severity of the injury, compensation may include:
