Houston Traumatic Brain Injury Attorney
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can have life-altering consequences, impacting the injured individual and their loved ones. If you or someone you care about has suffered a traumatic brain injury due to someone else's negligence, the experienced attorneys at Merka Law are here to help you seek justice and compensation.
Understanding Traumatic Brain Injury Cases
A traumatic brain injury occurs when an external force, such as a car accident, a fall, or a violent impact, causes damage to the brain. TBIs can range from mild concussions to severe brain damage, potentially resulting in long-term physical, cognitive, and emotional impairments.
Do I Have a Case?
Several factors must be considered to determine if you have a valid TBI case, including the cause of the injury, the responsible party's actions, and the damages you have suffered. Our attorneys can provide a free consultation to evaluate your case and discuss your legal options.
Do I Need an Attorney?
Traumatic brain injury claims are often complicated, emotionally charged, and require a profound understanding of the legal and medical aspects involved. Legal studies indicate a higher likelihood of success for claimants who seek representation from experienced attorneys. A seasoned TBI attorney can provide vital support in deciphering legal intricacies, collecting crucial evidence, dealing with insurance companies, and securing the rightful compensation you are due.
How Much Does It Cost?
Merka Law operates on a contingency fee basis, which means you don't pay any attorney fees unless we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.
What is My Case Worth?
Every traumatic brain injury case carries a unique set of circumstances and impacts, shaping the compensation that may be due to you. Our dedicated attorneys at Merka Law will meticulously assess your case, seeking compensation that covers not just immediate financial costs like medical bills and therapy costs, but also factoring in the broader impacts such as lost earnings, diminished future earning potential, and the non-economic costs like pain, suffering, and loss of life's pleasures.
Traumatic Brain Injury Statistics
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) continue to significantly contribute to the national death and disability rates, with recent data revealing over 611 TBI-related hospitalizations and 190 TBI-related deaths per day across the United States. A significant proportion of these cases involve people aged 75 and above and males. Though specific data for Texas remains unavailable, the alarming national prevalence highlights the importance of informed legal representation in TBI claims.
