A brain injury is a life-changing injury that requires extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation. Getting proper care for a brain injury is necessary, but expensive.

A Philadelphia brain injury lawyer at Kane & Silverman will fight for your rights during this difficult time.
If the negligence of another party caused your brain injury, you deserve justice. Our brain injury attorneys will get you justice by holding negligent parties accountable. When we hold wrongdoers accountable, others are discouraged from acting negligently in the future. This can help reduce the number of brain injuries caused by negligent actions.
About Brain Injuries
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most serious types of injuries one can suffer. Traumatic brain injuries, which include concussions, can range from mild to severe. Brain injuries are more complex than other injuries. They can affect your cognitive abilities, motor functioning, sensation and emotion. An injury to the brain can cause severe and sometimes irreparable changes in personality. Recovery after a brain injury is functional and is based on mechanisms that remain uncertain. No two brain injuries are alike and the consequences of two similar injuries may be different.
Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries
Brain injuries are caused by a blow, bump, jolt, or penetration to the head that disrupts the brain’s normal functioning. The most common causes of traumatic brain injuries include:
- Falls
- Being Struck by or Against an Object or Person (including sports injuries)
- Motor Vehicle Crashes
- Assaults
Negligence can happen in all these situations. If your brain injury occurred because of a slippery floor, distracted driver, or some other negligent act, you may be entitled to compensation.
