Brain Injury Attorney in Montgomery County

If you or a loved one has suffered a suspected brain injury, it may benefit you to contact an experienced brain injury attorney to see if you are entitled to reparations. Silver & Silver are the region’s trusted brain injury attorneys and medical malpractice lawyers for residents of Delaware County, Montgomery County, and Philadelphia.

Each year, in the United States alone, over two million people suffer a traumatic brain injury. A traumatic brain injury is an affliction that is caused by an external impact or trauma to one’s head and brain. This includes both closed-head and penetrative wounds. The term “concussion” is used to refer to some traumatic brain injuries, but no matter what you call it, any brain injury can have a severe impact on your life, which is why our brain injury attorneys will fight hard to get justice for your suffering.

Processes like oxygen-deprivation or anoxia can also result in severe brain injuries. These types of head traumas are called acquired brain injuries and can be the result of such traumas as smoke inhalation during a fire, near drowning, or a heart attack. If you have been involved in events like these, you may need to contact Silver & Silver to speak to a brain injury attorney or a catastrophic injury attorney in Philadelphia, PA, today.

Injuries to the brain can result in severe physical, emotional, and cognitive limitations and can be devastatingly life-altering for those who suffer from them. Nevertheless, some brain injuries can go long-undetected as obvious symptoms are not always present immediately after an accident.

Brain injuries frequently occur due to falls or car crashes where there is brunt contact with the head. However, they can also happen as a result of indirect impact to the head, such as a severe and sudden shake. If a driver gets whiplash (where the neck snaps forward and back in a sudden and shocking manner) when he or she is rear-ended in a car crash, they may suffer from head trauma. If you’ve suffered any injuries as a result of an automobile accident, contact Silver & Silver’s auto accident attorneys in Philadelphia, PA, for a consultation. Our automotive vehicle services also include motorcycle accident lawyers for residents of Philadelphia, PA, and surrounding areas.

Traumatic brain injuries can result in a wide range of types and severity of symptoms, including:

  • Limited ability to focus
  • Lack of appetite or sleeplessness
  • Loss of balance or dizziness
  • Changes in temperament or behavior
  • Memory loss
  • Mood swings
  • Fatigue
  • Neck pain
  • Back pain
  • Sensitivity to bright light
  • Sensitivity to sound
  • Headaches
  • Slurred speech

Frequently, the person with the brain injury may not realize the severity of the symptoms. For example, someone with memory loss may not realize they are repeating a conversation until a family member alerts them. It is important to write down any symptoms you think may be related so your doctors can adequately assess and treat your condition.

If you have had a concussion in the past, it can make you more susceptible to suffering more severe head trauma in the future. Fortunately, medical care for traumatic brain injuries has improved dramatically in the last decade. The Philadelphia area has several medical facilities that are dedicated to treating traumatic brain injuries, such as Jefferson Hospital or the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.

Each brain injury situation is unique and deserves close attention and due care. If you or a loved one living near Philadelphia, Montgomery County, or Delaware County has suffered a traumatic brain injury that was caused by someone else’s negligence, you should contact a brain injury attorney today as you may be entitled to compensation for the other party’s fault. As leading personal injury lawyers, including slip and fall cases, in Montgomery County and surrounding areas, nobody is more dedicated to your compensation and health than we are. Contact us today to set up a consultation.
