When the Brain Is Injured, Everything Changes
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is not just a medical event—it’s a life-altering trauma with physical, cognitive, and emotional consequences. Victims may lose their ability to work, care for themselves, or engage in everyday activities. Families often face immense emotional and financial pressure. At Moore Payne, we understand the complexity of brain injury cases and are dedicated to helping victims seek justice and financial security.
What Is a Traumatic Brain Injury?
A TBI occurs when the brain is damaged due to an external force, such as a blow, jolt, or penetrating injury. Common causes include:
- Motor vehicle accidents
- Falls from heights or on unsafe premises
- Physical assaults or sports injuries
- Workplace incidents involving heavy equipment or falling objects
- Medical errors during childbirth or surgery
TBIs range in severity from concussions to permanent brain damage. In severe cases, victims may require lifelong care.
Symptoms and Long-Term Effects
Brain injuries are notoriously unpredictable. Symptoms may appear immediately or emerge over time, and they can vary widely depending on the area of the brain affected.
Common symptoms include:
- Headaches and dizziness
- Loss of consciousness or memory lapses
- Difficulty concentrating or speaking
- Vision or hearing problems
- Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
- Changes in personality or behavior
- Seizures or coordination problems
The consequences may be temporary or permanent—and often require intensive medical, therapeutic, and psychological treatment.

Why Brain Injury Cases Are Unique
Brain injury litigation demands more than basic legal skills. These cases often involve:
- Extensive Medical Evidence – Including brain scans, neuropsychological testing, and expert evaluations
- Proving Causation – Connecting the negligent act to the injury, especially when symptoms are delayed
- High-Stakes Damages – Long-term costs of care, rehabilitation, and reduced quality of life
- Expert Testimony – Neurologists, therapists, and vocational experts may be needed to testify
At Moore Payne, we have the experience and resources to build strong, evidence-backed cases and advocate for clients facing life-changing injuries.

Compensation in TBI cases must reflect both the immediate impact and the future implications of the injury. Our firm helps clients pursue damages for:
- Emergency medical care and hospital bills

- Home modifications and assistive technology
- Pain and suffering
- Loss of enjoyment of life

We work with financial planners and life-care experts to ensure all damages are properly calculated and presented.
