You have the right to contact Omega Law Group Accident & Injury Attorneys and our Houston personal injury lawyers immediately after a life-changing accident. We have decades of experience between us and have recovered millions of dollars on behalf of our clients since the firm was founded in 2016.
You can trust us to take your losses seriously as you fight to recover.
What are Common Symptoms of Moderate and Severe Traumatic Brain Injuries?
How can you be sure you’re dealing with a moderate or severe traumatic brain injury? First and foremost, have a medical professional look you over after an accident. You need a medical professional to diagnose your condition if you want to ask for damages based on your losses.
However, there are symptoms you can look out for if you start experiencing discomfort in the days following your accident. Some of the most common symptoms of a brain injury include the following:
- Headaches that last for days at a time
- Vomiting
- Nausea
- New seizures
- Insomnia or an inability to wake up
- Increased exhaustion and fatigue
- Confusion, agitation, and changes in mood
Omega Law Group and its Houston brain injury attorneys can discuss your right to a personal injury case regardless of what kind of brain injury you’ve sustained or how severe your injury seems. It’s our goal to get you the resources you need to address your injuries as quickly and simply as possible.
Why Should You Work with a Houston Brain Injury Lawyer?
Unfortunately, brain injuries can leave you disoriented and unable to take care of your everyday needs for a considerable amount of time following an accident. It’s with the possible limitations you’re facing in mind that we recommend you work with a Houston, TX, brain injury attorney to address your losses.
Not only does our team have more resources to dedicate toward your recovery, but we also have decades of combined legal experience to call on as your case evolves.
We can connect with our professional network, which includes experienced investigators, to gather the data needed to build your case before referring to legal precedent to argue for your damages.
Moreover, we can run interference on your behalf. If an insurance claims adjuster starts reaching out and pushing you to provide them with a statement regarding your losses, we can intercede and make it clear that you will not be accepting an insufficient settlement offer or waiving your right to legal action. In other words, we can advocate for you while you heal.
We Conduct a Thorough Investigation of Your Losses
If you want to file a brain injury claim against the party you believe to be liable for your losses, you need to bring forward evidence proving that:
- The party in question owed you a duty of care at the time of your brain injury
- That party’s negligence or recklessness violated that duty of care
- You’ve continued to suffer economic losses as a result of that person’s negligence
What evidence can you use to make your case? Our team relies on a combination of photos, videos, accident reports, and eyewitness statements. We can supplement those findings with physical debris, electronic data, and expert witness statements as your case evolves.
All of this data comes together to create the story of loss behind your accident. We can bring that story to light in court or private negotiations to emphasize that you deserved protection and now deserve compensation for your losses.
We Advocate for Your Right to Fair Compensation for a Brain Injury
The evidence your brain injury lawyer in Houston gathers can help you pursue compensation in conversations with insurance claims adjusters and in civil court.
It’s up to you to decide which path you want to pursue. If you file an insurance claim, you retain the right to file a brain injury claim if a provider refuses to recognize your losses.
Before you file either form, you need to know the value of your desired settlement. We can calculate that value by finding the sum of your economic and non-economic accident losses. These commonly include the following:
- Emergency medical care
- Long-term medical treatments, including upcoming surgeries
- Pain management and physical therapy
- Lost wages or an inability to return to work
- Property damage, if applicable
- Reduced quality of life
- Temporary or permanent disabilities
- Emotional distress
- Pain and suffering
- Wrongful death and funeral expenses, if applicable
Your right to ask for these losses may vary depending on whether you file an insurance claim or a personal injury claim. Our team can outline the differences between these approaches to your recovery and highlight which one may help you maximize your final settlement. At the end of the day, we want you to walk away from both claims with all of the compensation you need to heal.
Know Your Statute of Limitations
Moving forward with a brain injury claim requires you to finalize your paperwork within Texas’s personal injury statute of limitations. Tex. Civ. Pract. & Proc. Code § 16.003 gives you two years and no longer to complete and file your claim.
If you want an attorney to make the process of filing simpler, we recommend you book your free case consultation sooner rather than later.
