Brain Injury
by admin@gotechark.com | July 27th, 2020
When it comes to feeling the effects of an injury long after it occurred, few are as disruptive to daily life as a traumatic brain injury (TBI). That’s because the brain controls so many aspects of the body, and damage to it can also result in significant behavioral, psychological, and cognitive changes.
People who suffer TBIs may struggle with the following burdens for years, or even the rest of their lives:
- Thinking—TBIs can make it difficult for victims to think clearly. They may become deficient in areas of cognition where they were once strong, such as abstract concepts, pattern recognition, mathematics, and more.
- Sensation—TBIs can affect victims’ ability to see clearly or walk in a straight line. They also may experience synesthesia, or the blending and confusion of their senses. That means they may “hear” colors or “see” sounds.
- Language—TBI victims may struggle to find the right words in conversations. Damage to language processing centers in their brains can also make it difficult for them to express themselves effectively to others.
- Emotion—TBI victims may be emotionally unstable and have volatile mood swings, and they may suffer from prolonged depression and anxiety. They also may display inappropriate reactions and emotions to certain events and in social situations.
At Lowell Stanley Injury Lawyers, we know that TBIs often change lives forever—both victims’ lives and the lives of their loved ones. They can make it impossible to work, and victims often need expensive medical care and rehabilitation.
That’s why our Virginia brain injury lawyers work hard to help victims get maximum compensation. If you or someone you love suffered a TBI due to someone else’s negligence, we want to help. Call today for a free consultation.

At Lowell Stanley Injury Lawyers, we know that all injuries have the capacity to change victims’ lives forever. Whether it’s broken bones, cuts and contusions, or soft tissue damage, injuries can result in big medical bills and pain that makes it difficult or impossible to work. However, few injuries affect victims as profoundly and permanently as traumatic brain injuries (TBIs).
TBIs can occur in a wide variety of accidents. They can happen during car accidents, even when victims are protected by seat belts and air bags. They can occur when victims slip and fall on wet, slick, or uneven walkways. They can affect motorcyclists, even those who wear DOT-approved helmets. They can even change the lives of patients undergoing medical procedures when doctors and surgeons don’t take proper precautions.
Our Virginia brain injury lawyers know how devastating TBIs can be today, tomorrow, and 30 years from now. For many victims, the expenses never stop adding up. They need lifetime care, and they’re permanently disabled. Getting a quick one-time settlement from the insurance company simply isn’t enough to cover their expenses, and yet that’s what adjusters believe is fair. Of course, their goal is to protect their profits—not pay victims the money they need.
Don’t let that happen to you. Our legal team is ready to take your call and put our experience and dedication to work for your family. Contact us today for a free consultation. Your family has suffered one of the most devastating injuries, and it’s our job to get you the money you deserve.

Many types of injuries can result in long-term or even permanent disability. But few have the ability to change victims’ lives and the lives of their loved ones the same way that traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) do. People who suffer from TBIs can experience a wide range of complications, including personality changes, impaired cognition, reduced motor skills, and even loss of independence.
At Lowell Stanley Injury Lawyers, our Virginia brain injury attorneys believe that TBIs caused by others’ negligence are unacceptable. Whether they’re the result of auto accidents, motorcycle accidents, slip and falls, or even medical mistakes, preventable TBIs often cause a lifetime of suffering and lost potential. That’s why we believe victims and their loved ones deserve maximum compensation.
However, it’s important to note that insurance companies rarely award injury victims the full amounts they deserve. When they actually agree to pay settlements, they usually look to pay only a percentage of victims’ current medical bills—not the expenses they’ll incur years in the future due to their injuries. The same is true for TBIs, the costs of which can be astronomical when viewed over the course of a lifetime.
If you or someone you love suffered a TBI that resulted in big medical bills and affected your ability to work, we want to help you get the compensation you’re owed. You’ve gone through a serious, life-changing injury, and you deserve money for your injury-related expenses. Contact us today for a free consultation. We have decades of experience fighting for innocent victims, and we want to help you, too.

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can occur as a result of auto accidents, motorcycle accidents, medical malpractice, personal injuries, and more. People who suffer TBIs experience a wide range of harmful effects. Some victims may experience only minor symptoms, while others may become severely disabled and unable to live independently.
At Lowell Stanley Injury Lawyers, our Norfolk brain injury attorneys have seen the devastation that TBIs cause both victims and their loved ones. They’re especially damaging to victims and their families when they affect the primary income-earners in the household, as TBIs often make it difficult or impossible to work and earn a living. That can leave their family members in a financial bind—especially when they’re trying to pay expensive medical bills.
Getting full compensation for TBIs is difficult. That’s because the costs of TBIs are often difficult to calculate, as the effects are lifelong. In addition to being unable to work, victims also may require intensive medical care for the rest of their lives. Getting a single payment for initial costs may help in the short term, but in the long term, victims and their families deserve much larger settlements for what they’ve already gone through and what’s to come.
Because TBI claims are often bigger than other types of injury claims, insurance companies are reluctant to pay out to victims and their families. That’s where we come in. We believe that injured victims shouldn’t have to pay out of pocket for their own expenses, especially when others are at fault for their injuries. Get in touch with us today to find out how we can assist you or your loved one with your TBI-related expenses.

Many types of catastrophic accidents can result in traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), including auto accidents, motorcycle accidents, bicycle accidents, on-the-job accidents, medical malpractice, and more. Regardless of how they occur, TBIs can have devastating effects on the lives of victims and their loved ones. It’s common for TBI victims to lose their ability to work, and some even need frequent, if not daily, care from nurses and other healthcare professionals.
The costs associated with TBIs can be enormous. When victims are unable to work, it can mean years or decades of lost wages. And when they aren’t working, paying for their medical bills can be an even bigger burden on themselves and their families. In addition, TBIs often result in cognitive and behavioral changes, and victims frequently experience symptoms such as depression, anxiety, anger, and other personality changes.
At Lowell Stanley Injury Lawyers, our Norfolk brain injury attorneys know the wide-reaching consequences of TBIs, and we’ve seen how they can wipe out families emotionally and financially. It’s our goal to make the latter as small of an issue as possible, especially when TBIs are caused by other people’s negligence.
If you or a loved one suffered a TBI because of someone else’s carelessness, we want to help you get the money you deserve. We’ll fight to get you maximum compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Contact us today for a free consultation.

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are unique because of the wide-reaching consequences they have for victims. Depending on their severity, victims may experience everything from headaches and nausea to memory loss and impaired coordination. Some victims may even be so profoundly affected that they need in-home care from a nurse or other healthcare provider just to complete daily living tasks.
At Lowell Stanley Injury Lawyers, our Norfolk brain injury lawyers know that TBIs can occur due to a variety of accidents and scenarios, such as:
Regardless of their cause, victims often experience serious difficulties managing their day-to-day lives. And unlike many other injuries, TBIs are slow to heal and sometimes victims never get better, resulting in lifelong disabilities and complications. The expenses associated with TBIs can be enormous, especially when victims require ongoing rehabilitation and care and are unable to return to work.
If you or someone you love suffered a TBI due to someone else’s negligence, you deserve maximum compensation. Our legal team knows how to build strong claims that get results, and we know how to treat TBI victims and their families with the respect and care that they need during this difficult time.

At Lowell Stanley Injury Lawyers, our legal team meets people from all walks of life who have suffered many types of severe injuries. And while all injuries have the potential to cause devastating consequences, few have effects that are as life-changing as traumatic brain injuries (TBIs).
TBIs can occur due to a variety of accidents and scenarios, including medical malpractice, auto accidents, motorcycle accidents, workplace injuries, and even acts of violence. Because the brain has limited healing and regenerative capabilities, many victims who suffer TBIs experience profound cognitive, physical, and emotional difficulties for the rest of their lives.
The severity of TBIs can vary, as can their consequences. Some victims may experience subtle personality and cognitive changes, while others may have difficulty living independently or even require around-the-clock assistance. A Norfolk brain injury attorney knows how such injuries can affect families and their finances, especially when the victims were primary income earners for their households.
It’s important to remember that insurance companies may be reluctant to give victims of all accidents and injuries fair compensation—even TBI victims whose lives are permanently altered. Our team fights for the rights of victims and their families by calculating how much money they’re owed and aggressively negotiating to help them get it.

When people suffer head trauma, whether it’s due to accidents, illnesses, or even violence, there’s a chance that they will experience traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). TBIs can range in severity from minor concussions to severe and life-threatening bleeding and swelling. All TBIs have the potential to cause victims to experience lifelong side effects and complications, and the more severe the TBIs are, the more victims may suffer in the years to come.
The Norfolk brain injury attorneys at Lowell Stanley Injury Lawyers have seen firsthand how brain injuries can affect victims and their loved ones.

If you or someone you love suffered a TBI, you can count on our legal team to fight for your rights to get the money you deserve. You shouldn’t have to pay out of pocket for an injury that wasn’t your fault, and you shouldn’t have to fear whether you’ll be able to pay for the medical care you or your family member needs.
