Brain Injury

Tampa Brain Injury Attorney

A car, truck or motorcycle accident victim with a concussion or amnesia, or in a coma, should obtain a PET scan, which is "used to evaluate patients who have memory disorders of an undetermined cause, suspected or proven brain tumors or seizure disorders," according to the American College of Radiology.* The PET scan often demonstrates the extent of the brain damage more clearly than an MRI or CT scan does.

When a Crash or Fall Causes Serious Brain Injury

For guidance on brain injury recovery, talk to your doctor. To discuss how to deal with the financial losses resulting from your accidental injury, contact an experienced personal injury lawyer.

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) victim who has been hurt because of a construction accident or in a fall from a balcony or deck in Florida is encouraged to contact Winters & Yonker, PA by phone or e-mail to arrange for a free initial consultation.

Head Injury and Compensation

At Winters & Yonker, PA, we often hear others refer to us as "the aggressive attorneys." In fact, we make every effort to live up to that reputation. We do indeed aggressively pursue the compensation that a client with a brain injury needs and deserves.

Even when a Closed Head Injury is Invisible, Damage may be Long-lasting

People with closed head injuries often have to deal with the fact that observers who see nothing wrong assume that healing is complete and all is well. Insurance adjusters in particular often seem to imply that once acute amnesia, concussion, or coma is past, the injured person is now well enough to go back to work, or back to a normal life. In fact, brain injury victims and their spouses, children and coworkers know differently. Sometimes, memory loss and personality change do not go away, and the victim has trouble concentrating or carrying on a logical conversation.

With an Ample Settlement or Verdict, a Victim has New Hope

Our clients' best interests are our top priority. We are not simply out to "get money for victims." The whole point of compensation is to provide a victim with access to the best treatment, therapy, and rehabilitation that money can buy.

For experienced, aggressive legal counsel and representation after a car accident, industrial accident, or nursing home slip and fall accident, contact Winters & Yonker, PA.
