Know the Symptoms of a TBI

Not all TBI injuries are immediately apparent. In fact, you can develop brain trauma without ever being struck in the head or losing consciousness. Mild traumatic brain injuries can be present for several weeks before symptoms appear. If you’ve recently had an accident or injury, be aware of common TBI symptoms, including:

• Headaches
• Dizziness
• Seizures
• Memory loss
• Issues with speech and language
• Partial or full loss of hearing/vision
• Sleep disorders
• Behavioral disorders
• Personality changes

1.7 million Americans suffer a traumatic brain injury each year. Over 70,000 develop a long-term disability as a result.

Undiagnosed or untreated head injuries can have devastating long-term effects, including dementia, Alzheimer’s disease, Lou Gehrig’s disease, and depression. If you’ve been in an accident, seek immediate medical attention to ensure your health and safety.

Quick Answers from Our Attorneys

Q: How long do I have to file a traumatic brain injury lawsuit in Oregon?

Oregon has various time limitations for filing and settling a traumatic brain injury claim. In general, you have 2 years from the date of your traumatic brain injury to file and settle your claim. In most cases, after this statute of limitations, any rights of monetary compensation will be lost.

Q: Do you accept cases when the client can’t pay the costs?

We believe everyone deserves to be heard and have their day in court, regardless of where they come from or if they are rich or poor. Contact us to learn more about our fees and how the process works. Our firm provides free consultations, and you won’t pay any attorney fees unless we secure compensation for you.

Q: Why do you represent people with traumatic brain injuries?

Representing someone who has suffered a traumatic brain injury requires patience, understanding, and a deep level of commitment to seeking justice. My science background, legal experience, and personality make me particularly well-suited to handle these types of cases.

What Our Clients Say

“We can't say enough good things about Kimberly and her associates. They were thorough, professional, and easy to work with.

We will always be grateful and highly recommend her.”
