Sacramento County Head Trauma Attorney
Even a subtle or moderate brain injury can leave the injured person affected for life. He or she may experience job loss, financial disaster, personality changes, impaired cognition, loss of independence and dependence on caregivers or family members. At the San Francisco law firm of Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger, we understand the lasting consequences of a brain injury to both the victim and his or her family.
For more than 50 years, our attorneys have helped the injured and their families file personal injury claims against negligent parties whose actions caused damage to our clients' health and futures. We have handled cases in Sacramento, San Jose, San Diego, Los Angeles and other communities in California. We work with medical experts including physicians, therapists, social workers and rehabilitation specialists to build strong cases for our clients.
Brain injuries can arise from a multitude of causes including auto collisions, falls, accidental blows to the head, oxygen deprivation during surgery, chemical exposure and many other events. The resulting injury can alter a victim's ability to walk, perform tasks that require fine motor coordination and other physical problems. Victims may become unable to process information, remember, make decisions or understand reality. They may become paranoid or develop other psychological conditions.
The deficits caused by brain injuries can require lifelong treatment and care. Our attorneys assess the potential costs of treating and caring for our brain injured clients. We investigate the possibility of vocational training and rehabilitation. We determine the resources our client needs in order to live as fully as possible.
We also evaluate the intangible costs of a brain injury to a client and the affected family. We know that brain injuries cause significant stress on the families of the injured. We determine how to compensate the victim and the family for the loss of the injured person's support, love and companionship.
We identify the liable party and determine how the injury occurred. Our law firm has the experience, resources, knowledge and record of accomplishment to put our clients in a position to achieve maximum value for their case.
