A traumatic brain or spinal cord injury is one of the most devastating experiences a person and their family can face.

Understanding Brain and Spine Injuries

Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)

A traumatic brain injury occurs when the brain suffers a sudden blow, jolt, or penetration. Even a seemingly mild concussion can have lasting effects. More severe TBIs can cause permanent cognitive, behavioral, and physical impairments.

  • Falls from unsafe property conditions
  • Sports or recreational accidents
  • Workplace and construction site injuries
  • Medical negligence or oxygen deprivation during surgery
  • Symptoms can range from headaches, confusion, and memory loss to seizures, loss of coordination, and personality changes.
