Closed Head Injury - Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

The human brain is a delicate organ. Trauma to the brain caused by an accident or medical error can lead to oxygen deprivation, which in turn can result in catastrophic, life-altering consequences. At the Atlanta law firm of Goldstein & Hayes, PC, our attorneys possess the technical knowledge and proven results at trial to secure financial damages to improve the quality of life for victims of brain injury.

We have prevailed in brain damage throughout the southeastern United States. Our lawyers have access to the best medical experts and the resources to secure full compensation. In twenty-five years of handling catastrophic brain injury, our attorneys have obtained numerous settlements and awards far in excess of one million dollars.

Brain damage may be catastrophic or subtle, but it is always costly

Brain injury can lead to serious mental and physical disability that requires lifelong care. It can also result in subtle personality changes that affect the injured person in subtle ways, requiring ongoing physical and psychological therapy. In either case, the cost of a brain injury is ongoing.

Brain injury can arise from almost any type of catastrophic accident, including

• Truck accidents
• Car accidents
• Birth injury
• Medical negligence
• Defective products
• Swimming pool accidents
• Physical assault

Our law firm has the resources and commitment to undertake a full and thorough investigation of the accident that caused the brain injury. We promptly visit the scene to preserve evidence and take witness statements to trace liability. We consult with nationally renowned medical experts. Our 25 years of experience, and the knowledge of our nurse case manager, gives our law firm the ability to develop cases centering on technical medical issues such as hypoxic ischemic brain injury or hypoxic anoxic brain injury.

Goldstein & Hayes, PC, works with victims, their families, and experts in many fields to develop a life care plan that calculates future economic losses and medical and personal care. This plan is the basis for seeking compensation from the negligent party. Our goal is to improve the quality of life of the individual as much as possible, replace lost income, and cover the ongoing health care needs over a lifetime.

Early investigation of an accident resulting in brain injury is important. A statute of limitations may also restrict the timeframe in which a claim may be filed.
