Idaho Falls Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyer

Traumatic Brain Injuries

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the term for brain damage arising from an accident or violent act. The injury can be mild, but a more severe TBI can have lifelong consequences or even cause death.

If you or your child has suffered a TBI and you believe another party may be at fault, our catastrophic injury attorneys at Parke Gordon Law can help you understand your legal options. An Idaho Falls traumatic brain injury lawyer will help you pursue justice and maximum financial compensation from the responsible parties.

Understanding TBIs

A TBI occurs when you suffer a blow or penetrating injury to the head. The event can cause damage to the blood vessels and shearing of brain tissue, and the swelling that occurs after the initial injury can further damage brain tissue and lead to cell death.

A concussion is a mild TBI. Although most people recover from a concussion in a few weeks, you may have lingering symptoms that can be debilitating in some cases. Moderate TBIs may produce permanent changes in functioning, and a severe TBI is a catastrophic and sometimes fatal injury.

Our Idaho Falls attorneys understand how challenging the recovery from a severe brain injury can be. If you hire us to represent you, we will aggressively pursue compensation from the responsible parties with the goal of getting fair compensation for you as quickly as possible.

Act Quickly or Risk Losing Your Rights

When you suffer a TBI in an accident, securing legal representation right away is critical. Idaho Code § 5-219(4) allows adults only two years from the accident date to file a personal injury lawsuit. If you do not file your suit by that deadline, you will be barred from ever filing for that injury, which also removed any leverage for securing a settlement.

Sometimes a government agency bears some responsibility for an incident that caused a TBI. In that case, speedy action is essential. You must notify the appropriate agency of your claim within six months of your injury or lose your right to sue.

Can You Determine Your Damages?

If you are partially responsible for the accident that caused your TBI, you can still collect reduced damages in many cases. Idaho Code § 6-801 establishes the comparative negligence standard that applies to personal injury cases. You can sue other negligent parties for your injuries as long as you were no more than 50 percent responsible for the accident.

During the settlement negotiation process, insurance companies will allocate fault between all parties on a percentage basis. If a case goes to court, a jury decides how much responsibility each party bears. The court will reduce your damages by the percentage of fault it allocates to you.

Insurance companies for the responsible parties will assign as much blame as possible to you to reduce their liability. The TBI attorneys at our Idaho Falls office will aggressively protect your right to compensation for your brain trauma.
