Florida Traumatic Brain Injury Attorney

Providing experienced and focused representation

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a penetrating or concussive head wound that causes damage to the brain and disrupts its normal function. TBIs occur when the head violently and suddenly hits an object or when an object pierces the skull and enters the brain tissue. The attorneys at Holliday Karatinos Law Firm have a familiarity with the medical and legal issues involved provide significant benefits in the resolution of your case.

What are the symptoms and consequences of a brain injury?

There are two basic types of brain injuries. In open head injuries, the skull is fractured. A closed head injury does not involve a skull fracture, but these injuries can be more even more serious than open head injuries because the brain may swell or blood clots may form under the skull.

Brain injuries can cause many complications even when the victim appears outwardly healthy. Symptoms of complications you should be alert to and take seriously after you have sustained a head injury include:

Severe headache
Confusion and difficulty remembering events
Lightheadedness and dizziness
Blurred vision or tired eyes
Numbness or weakness on one side of the body
Ringing in the ears
Bad taste in the mouth
Unusual tiredness

Because these injuries can result in serious and long-lasting damage that affects your ability to perform everyday activities, it is important to retain an experienced Brooksville traumatic brain injury attorney to represent and protect your interests.

Speech and language deficits such as difficulty speaking, reading or writing
Memory loss
Partial or total vision loss
Loss of the sense of touch, smell or taste
