Closed Head Injury/Brain Injury

South Bend, Indiana, Traumatic Brain Injury Attorneys

Regardless of the type of accident involved, closed head and traumatic brain injury cases are uniquely and inherently difficult—for the injury victim, the family and loved ones, and in the courtroom. While it is fairly obvious if someone has lost a leg or suffered severe scarring, it is not always apparent to the untrained eye when a closed head injury has occurred.

At Lee, Groves & Zalas, in South Bend, Indiana, we have extensive experience representing traumatic brain injury victims and their families. Our attorneys also have experience on the other side of these cases, which gives us a unique insight into the tactics of the defense. If your loved one has suffered a brain stem injury or TBI in an accident or due to malpractice, contact us today to discuss your questions and concerns with a trusted, knowledgeable, and reputable attorney who is experienced handling these sophisticated claims.

Often there are no medical findings that will show an injury to the brain itself. Proving these cases involves a look into the person's past, how they behaved, how they performed, and what they did before in contrast to who they are now. Memory loss is also a frequent factor in determining whether a traumatic brain injury has occurred.

We work with a number of experts, including neurologists and neurophysiologists who will testify about your condition. Family members and close friends will also testify about changes have seen in their injured loved one. Our firm works regularly with a handful of credible experts with experience testifying on both sides of these cases.

If you are concerned about a loved one who has suffered a closed head injury in a motorcycle or car accident, truck accident, premises liability accident, or due to medical malpractice, you may be entitled to compensation for medical care, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other losses you sustained. We will clearly explain your rights and guide you through the legal process with compassion and attention, while advocating persuasively on your behalf.

Contact us today to discuss your rights with a reputable, trusted personal injury lawyer in a free consultation. All traumatic brain injury cases are handled on a contingency basis—you will not pay a fee unless we win a settlement for you.
