Head trauma can cause serious injuries that can alter the life of the victim forever. Trauma to the head can affect speech, vision and hearing, as well as impact appearance. Beyond the physical injuries to the head, TBIs, also known as traumatic brain injuries can result in mental decline. TBIs can range from moderate to severe. If it is severe, it could interfere with brain function. The effects of TBI may include:

• Cognitive function is diminished
• Changes in behavior
• Memory loss
• Disorders of the mood or emotional
• Speech problems
• Headaches
• Physical impairments

The victims of head injuries might have to endure a lengthy course of treatments and medical procedures. Some may never fully recover and require long-term treatment. Traumatic brain injuries and head injuries can be devastating to the patient and their families.

What causes TBI and severe Head Trauma?

Car accidents and other motor vehicle collisions are the most common cause of brain and head trauma. A blow directly to the head may cause serious injury to the skull and brain, which can cause permanent injury. Unsafe conditions in the workplace or in medical facilities as well as business premises can result in head injuries, particularly for people who are older. If you suffer from a TBI or head injury as the result of negligence or unsafe conditions, the individual or company could be held financially liable and a judgment won in your favor.
