A head injury can damage your physical and cognitive health and can even be life-threatening. Depending on its type and severity, it can leave you or your family with short- and long-term medical, rehab, and therapy bills. Our Delray Beach head injury car accident lawyer can help you recover compensation for these financial burdens.
These are costs the at-fault driver and their insurance company should cover. Our law firm works hard to ensure they do. At the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine, we stop at nothing to obtain the compensation you need and deserve. We will investigate your accident, prove its cause, and negotiate the best possible financial outcome for you. We start by reviewing your case at no cost.
A Car Accident Head Injury Can Result In Long-Term Medical Bills
The injuries you sustain in a car accident can vary depending on where you were sitting, objects in the vehicle, and the location of the impact. According to Johns Hopkins Medicine, the type of injury can also vary greatly, and can include:
- Concussion
- Skull fracture
- Linear skull fractures
- Depressed skull fractures
- Diastatic skull fractures
- Basilar skull fracture
- Intracranial Hematoma (ICH)
- Epidural hematoma
- Subdural hematoma
- Contusion or intracerebral hematoma
- Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI)
- Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
Diagnosing and treating a head injury is costly and can involve various imaging exams, prolonged periods of rest, pain management, and prescribed medications. It can also involve physical, behavioral, and cognitive therapies and surgery.
To ensure all past, current, and future medical care is covered, our Delray Beach car accident lawyer compiles the bills from every healthcare professional and facility where you received treatment. This includes a written prognosis and treatment plan to ensure all future care is covered by your settlement.
Additional Economic And Non-Economic Recoverable Damages
In addition to your medical care, our head injury car accident attorney ensures you recover compensation for other expenses and losses that stem from the accident. They can include:
- Past and future income loss
- Loss of future earnings capacity
- Property damage or destruction
- Diminished property value
- Physical disability
- Physical disfigurement
- Pain and suffering
- Mental and emotional anguish
If a head injury sustained in a car accident led to a loved one passing away, we help your family recover a range of wrongful death damages. Our legal team will clarify which family members can benefit from a wrongful death action and how long your family has to pursue this avenue of compensation.
We Make Sure Your Delray Beach Case Is Filed On Time
Like all civil lawsuits, yours is governed by the laws of your state imposing a filing deadline called the statute of limitations. Your potential lawsuit must be filed as follows:
- The personal injury statute of limitations is generally four years from the date of the accident, according to Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a)
- The wrongful death statute of limitations is generally two years from the date of your loved one’s passing, according to Florida Statutes § 95.11(4)(d)
The age of the injured party, certain actions the at-fault driver takes, and various other factors can cause the filing deadline to fluctuate. The sooner you inform our law firm of your accident, the more time we have to correctly interpret the statute of limitations for your case and file on time.
Proving Negligence Caused Your Accident And Resulting Injuries
Car accidents can have a variety of causes including drug and alcohol intoxication, driver distractions, fatigue, speeding, and recklessness. Even road and weather conditions can lead to dangerous collisions. To prove your right to compensation due to negligence, our law firm documents the following elements of negligence:
- Duty of care
- Breach of duty
- Causation
- Damages
When our head injury car accident lawyer serving Delray Beach takes on your case, we also take on the task of proving the negligence that entitles you to recover damages.
Evidence We Include In Your Car Accident Case File
At the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine, we understand the importance of a robust evidence file and the impact it can have on your case. We build your case file with:
- Accident report containing key contact details, vehicle identifiers, and police observations
- Medical records and bills describing your injuries and their cause, extent, and ongoing costs
- Employment and salary history records documenting the income you lose when your injuries and recovery prevent you from working
- Accident scene and injury photos, accident reconstruction, and statements from lay and expert witnesses
Leave evidence collection to us. We will compile and organize it for you and present it to the at-fault driver and their insurer. The evidence we collect can help steer your case toward a financial settlement versus a lengthy trial.
