Brain Injury Attorney in Brunswick

Brain injuries are incredibly serious. They affect your physical abilities, cognitive functions, emotions, and personality. The impact can range from memory loss and difficulty concentrating to severe physical disabilities or even permanent vegetative states.

The recovery process is often long and challenging. More than half the time, it requires extensive medical treatment, rehabilitation, and ongoing support. Such an injury can also prevent you from working, enjoying hobbies you once enjoyed, and even maintaining relationships.

That explains why someone needs to be held accountable, especially if they were negligent or reckless.

Brain injuries can occur due to various incidents, with negligence being at the very top of the list. Here are some common causes:

• Car accidents
• Falls, especially in older adults
• Sports injuries
• Physical assaults
• Motorcycle accidents
• Bicycle accidents
• Pedestrian accidents
• Construction site accidents
• Medical malpractice
• Defective products

These causes illustrate how widespread and varied these injuries can be. As a result, each situation requires careful examination and powerful legal resources to determine the exact cause and the responsible party.

To have a viable brain injury claim, you must establish four key elements: duty, breach, causation, and damages. Here's how it works.

First, you need to show that the defendant owed you a duty of care. A good example is a driver's duty to drive safely.

Next, you must prove that this duty was breached through negligence or reckless behavior. Then, once that's out of the way, you need to demonstrate that this breach directly caused your brain injury.

Finally, you must provide evidence of the damages you've suffered. A Morgan and Morgan brain injury lawyer can help you gather and present this crucial information to build a strong case.

Your loved one deserves justice and compensation. You deserve a sense of healing and closure. The journey begins by having your case reviewed by a brain injury expert at Morgan and Morgan.
