Alabama Brain Injury Lawyer

Head Trauma, Traumatic Brain Injury and Brain Damage

A brain injury may be sustained as the result of physical trauma, as in the event of a car accident or fall, due to a lack of oxygen to the brain, or as the result of illness or disease. When a brain injury may be attributed to another person's negligence or wrongful conduct, the victim may have grounds to file a personal injury claim in order to seek financial damages for what he or she has experienced and will endure.

Brain injuries are typically classified as catastrophic injuries. They may have a significant impact on a victim's life and may be fatal if severe enough. At the Law Offices of Timothy A. Hughes, we help victims and families of victims of brain injuries throughout Alabama in exercising their legal rights to file claims or lawsuits in civil court. By talking to personal injury lawyer Timothy A. Hughes about your particular situation, you can get a better grasp on your options and what you can do at this point to positively impact your case.

Brain Injuries: Who is Liable?

The party that may be held liable for a brain injury will vary depending on the specific situation. If a brain injury is caused by an auto accident or motorcycle accident, for instance, the driver that caused the accident may be held accountable. If a baby suffers a birth injury that results in brain damage or a medical condition affecting the brain, such as cerebral palsy, the negligent doctor may be held responsible. An Alabama brain injury attorney can look over the particulars of your case to determine exactly what your claim may be worth and who should be held responsible.
