Concussions and Brain Injuries From Head Trauma Accidents
Hancock Law Firm, P.A.
The human brain is complex but fragile. The jarring from a car accident or other violent impact can alter not only cognitive function, but a person's senses, speech, mobility, emotions and personality. Some brain injuries are severe and devastating and reveal themselves immediately. Others, however, are subtle and slow to be diagnosed. The person may have just been dazed by the accident, or had a brief loss of consciousness, but may otherwise initially appear to be fine. Yet that person may later develop memory loss, headaches, cognitive problems, irritability, and a change in personality that may only be noticed by close family and friends. These are known as mild traumatic brain injuries.
The legal team at Hancock Law Firm, P.A., is dedicated to achieving justice for accident victims and their families after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) by holding negligent parties and their insurance companies accountable for paying for all the harms and losses caused by the accident or malpractice.
We represent victims of serious and catastrophic accidents resulting in brain injuries in the greater Tampa Bay area, surrounding counties of west central Florida and statewide. If your loved one suffered a brain injury or you suspect it, contact us today to learn more about our comprehensive approach and service to clients.
