Top Sacramento Lawyers for Head Trauma Victims

As advocates who have past experience in insurance defense work, we are able to take strategies usually used by insurance companies in head and brain injury cases and build strong catastrophic injury cases for our clients around those strategies.

What are some symptoms of a Brain Injury?

Symptoms of a head or brain injury can vary depending on several factors, like the severity and angle of traumaticDoctors examining brain scan​ impact to the head. Brain injury symptoms can range from minor inconveniences on a person’s life, to completely limiting function or interaction.

Symptoms can include:

  • Dizziness
  • Confusion
  • Excessive sleepiness / disturbed sleep
  • Emotional outbursts
  • Pain in other body parts
  • Severe headache
  • Loss of acquired skills
  • Vomiting
  • Loss of consciousness
  • Coma
  • Impaired memory / memory loss

Generally, symptoms of a traumatic brain injury (TBI) should lessen as the brain heals, but this takes time. Some symptoms are permanent. Sometimes the symptoms actually worsen because of the patient’s inability to adapt to changes in the brain, including brain swelling. Psychological problems, like depression and anxiety, can occur. Many head and brain injury victims’ lives are never the same.

Early Detection of Brain Injuries

While a head injury is often the first injury to occur in an accident, it can be the last to be diagnosed. For example, in a motor vehicle accident, often the brain is injured when the brain strikes the inside front or rear of the skull immediately after the impact of the vehicles. Sometimes, symptoms of a brain injury do not become apparent for weeks – or even months – after an accident.

Even then, extensive testing may be needed to determine the full scope of the injury. Patients often work with neurologists and are subject to MRIs and CAT scans, electroencephalograms (EEGs), SPECT scans, PET scans, and other studies. These tests can be very expensive.

Assessing Your Brain Injury Claim's Value

At Miller Injury Attorneys, clients often ask us how much their cases are worth. Your case value depends on many factors. To determine its value, we often conduct an extensive review of your injuries and losses, including your medical expenses and wage loss. Our lawyers also consult with life care planners and other experts. These experts may testify at trial about your economic situation after a brain injury, and the home care, nursing care and support you or your loved one may need to make life as normal as possible.

Recovery Prospects After a Traumatic Brain Injury

Recovering from a brain injury depends largely on the severity of the injury you sustained. Those who suffer a mild traumatic brain injury typically recover within a few months, although there are many variables that can change this timeline. Recovering from a more serious injury can take longer and can raise the chances you will need some form of medical intervention as part of the recovery process such as speech therapy or physical therapy.

  • I was pleased with the end result.

    “In December 2019 a Lyft driver just could not wait for me to finish getting into the car and took off prematurely running over my left foot. I suffered tears to a couple of ligaments and tendons. After not receiving any return calls from Lyft I enlisted the help of Miller Injury Attorneys. Rebecca McMartin was the legal assistant who helped me every step of the way. She was always courteous and very professional. She was responsive to all of my questions and concerns and allayed any doubts I had. I was amazed that we were able to settle just after one year of the incident. I know personally injury claims can be extremely lengthy, but this was short and sweet and I was pleased with the end result. I highly recommend this firm and if you are fortunate to be able to work with Rebecca, you are in good hands.”

    “I have nothing but good things to say about Mr. Miller and his staff. I could not be more satisfied with the outcome of the case that they stood by me with and helped me win. Even at the most discouraging times, they were always there to listen and offer advice, and ensured that I never gave up hope. Thank you to Mr Miller and your wonderful staff! I am so glad that I came to you and your firm to bring a happy ending closure to this case!”

  • I LOVE JOHN MILLER AND HIS STAFF

    “One of the main reasons why I love John Miller and his staff, especially Shannon, is because of the way they treat you. They treat you like human beings. I have not been able to find a law team that would take my case even with all my evidence... because I am low rent. John Miller and Shannon were the only ones who didn't treat me like I'm cheap and that I deserve all of these things just because of the fact of me being poor. They are always updating you on your case and keeps you abreast to all moving parts of the lawsuit. I hope this never happens to you or your family members, as all of mine have been affected, but if it does it's GREAT TO SEE AND KNOW THEY HAVE YOUR BACK and that you are working with people who REALLY CARE ABOUT YOU AND WHAT YOUR GOING THRU!!!!”
