How Does an Attorney Prepare a TBI Case?

A catastrophic injury lawyer begins working with an injured person in a traumatic brain injury case as soon as the injured individual retains a catastrophic injury lawyer. It is so important that evidence from the scene of a catastrophic injury is collected as soon as possible.

Photographs, witness statements, and surveillance footage are some examples of things that must be collected immediately following the event that caused a traumatic brain injury. The hazard that caused or contributed to the catastrophic injury may be altered, people’s memories may fade, and surveillance footage may be recorded over. These are but a few reasons why it is imperative to contact a Boynton Beach brain injury attorney as soon as possible following the event that caused the person’s traumatic brain injury.

Qualifying Evidence

As part of preparing your claim, your attorney may request notes regarding your symptoms, i.e., the hospital and doctor’s notes, physical therapy notes, occupational therapy and neuropsychology notes; charts, records, diagnostic reports, images of scans, and test results from any and all health care providers who have treated the client following the event that caused the alleged traumatic brain injury, are all qualifying evidence.

Testimony from the injured person, medical documentation, and the use of expert medical witnesses to testify at trial as to the nature and extent of injuries sustained, the necessity of past medical treatment, and also the necessity of ongoing and future medical treatment. A catastrophic brain injury can have long lasting damages.

A Boynton Beach brain injury lawyer can collect evidence through medical records. The attorney will read the records and understand exactly the medical condition that explains the medical treatment. At mediation, the lawyer will make a presentation of the facts and use photographs. At trial, the attorney will present the testimony of the injured person and expert witnesses; medical records, bills, photographs of the traumatic brain injury, et cetera. The injured person’s testimony will likely be used to establish how the accident happened to show who is at fault.

How Can the Injured Party Help Build their Claim?

The injured person can document all the ways that the injury has affected their lives, including specific examples of cognitive impairment, et cetera. The injured person should always keep the lines of communication open with their attorney and update the attorney on any medical changes and new doctors they have seen. They should always follow their doctor’s orders and avoid speaking with an insurance company representative without discussing it with their lawyer.
