What Are Traumatic Brain Injuries?
A traumatic brain injury typically results from a forceful hit to the head, leading to damage to the brain, as the term suggests. TBIs can be either an open or closed-head injury. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that in the United States, TBIs rank among the main causes of disability and mortality.
Common causes of TBIs include but aren’t limited to: slips, trips, and falls from any height, motor vehicle accidents, and construction hazards.

The Severity And Effect Of Traumatic Brain Injuries
The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is a neurological assessment tool for brain damage. It runs on a scale of three (3) to (15) and helps you evaluate the degree of your TBI. Lower scores show more serious injury; a higher score denotes a milder injury.
Long-term problems like memory loss, reduced cognitive ability, and physical disability can follow after severe traumatic brain injuries. Treating a severe TBI may cost patients and their families anywhere between $87,000 and $1.8 million, which can be quite taxing financially.
If you or a loved one has a traumatic brain injury, you should immediately seek qualified medical attention, as early diagnosis and medical treatment can greatly affect recovery results.
To this end, you can speak with one of the award-winning NYC brain injury attorneys at Schwartzapfel Lawyers if you or a family member has suffered a TBI or other head injury by dialing 516-342-2200 or scheduling your free consultation online today. Alternatively, please continue reading.
How Do You File A Brain Injury Lawsuit?
A brain injury lawsuit requires your injury to have been caused by another person’s carelessness. For instance, you could have a strong case if a TBI was caused by a car accident brought on by a careless motorist or a fall from improperly maintained scaffolding at a construction site.
