A Traumatic Brain Injury can occur from a number of accidents, such as a motor vehicle accident, pedestrian accident, slips and fall, etc., especially if you take a direct hit to your head. But even being unconscious for a period of time can cause symptoms of a Traumatic Brain Injury. A Traumatic Brain Injury can range from mild to severe, and can significantly interrupt your daily life as well as your career. Pain and suffering as well as any lost-wages relative to your Traumatic Brain Injury are compensable when another party was at-fault for the incident that caused it. Some individuals may not even realize, though, that they have a Traumatic Brain Injury, especially if they did not suffer trauma to the head.
