Lawsuits involving concussions

Is a concussion ground for a lawsuit?

From a legal aspect, you might be able to make a personal injury claim if you suffer a concussion and another person’s negligence caused the harm. If the damage was minor and there are no visible or persistent symptoms. If, however, the injury causes permanent or temporary mental or physical impairments, this is more significant damage for which you could be eligible for an award of compensation. Without impairments resulting from the incident and additional injuries, pursuing an action could be more trouble than the event is worth.

Your concussion’s severity, as well as any resulting limitations or impairments, suppose the injury is so severe as to impact your daily life. In that case, you could get entitled to compensation for expenses related to medical bills, lost wages, discomfort and impairment, and any other costs incurred due to the injury. How much compensation you are entitled to depend on medical treatment expenses and if these limitations affect your capacity to do your job. You must consult a concussion case-experienced lawyer to ascertain the validity of your claim and the potential settlement you may be due.
