What Can a Brain Injury Lawyer Do to Help You?
When you suffer a brain injury, you may need extensive medical care, including hospitalization and rehabilitation. In some cases, your former abilities are never restored. Your mood changes, communication issues, and physical impairments can damage your relationships and make it impossible to go back to the activities you once did.
You deserve full and fair compensation for all that the brain injury causes you to lose. A brain injury lawyer will help you to get that compensation. At Berry Law, our personal injury attorneys in Omaha will:
- Identify all the defendants responsible for your brain injury to ensure that there is enough insurance coverage to fully compensate you for losses
- Help you to prove that the defendants were the ones who caused the car accident that led to your brain injury, or are liable for it because of rules like vicarious liability laws that make employers liable for on-the-job accidents caused by their workers
- Assist you in demonstrating the extent of damage your brain injury has caused, including how it impacted your ability to work and earn a living, how it affected relationships with loved ones, and the pain and discomfort that it caused you to experience
- Negotiate a settlement outside of court when possible so you can recover compensation quickly and avoid the stress of a court proceeding, as you are trying to cope with serious and sometimes life-changing symptoms
- Present compelling evidence in court to maximize the compensation that you receive based on the long-term impact on your life and relationships
