Understanding Brain Injury Litigation

Attorneys often lack the tools to understand, evaluate, and communicate subtle impairments, and therefore are unable to secure relief for their clients with brain injuries. In this book, I share what I have learned in 25 years of representing clients with brain injuries. However, nothing in this book should be considered legal advice for your specific case.

If you are here because you or someone you love has suffered a brain injury, I may be able to help. My law office, along with hundreds of others, believes in sharing what I have learned with attorneys representing brain injury survivors.

This book is specifically about traumatic brain injury, the most common brain injury that is litigated in courtrooms. TBI is a subset of the larger category of acquired brain injury (ABI). Other kinds of ABI include stroke, dementia, and brain injury resulting from toxic exposures. Although other types of ABI are beyond the scope of this book, the strategies and approaches used in TBI litigation may be applicable to them as well.
