Victims of truck accidents face various injuries ranging from fractures to nerve damage. One of the most serious injuries a victim may obtain from a truck accident is brain damage or traumatic brain injury (TBI). The brain is the center of the nervous system and any trauma to the brain can cause permanent damage or even death. One of the common causes to brain damage is from a vehicle collision because of the sudden impact that leads to sudden acceleration or deceleration within the cranium, causing alterations in the cerebral blood flow and pressure within the skull. If you or a loved one have sustained a brain injury from any truck accident or other personal injury accident, please contact us now, including for referrals to doctors who may provide treatment without a request for payment until the claim is resolved, in Glendale, Burbank or anywhere in California.
