More than 1.5 million people sustain some form of TBI every year in the United States. If you recently suffered head trauma in an accident that someone else caused, turn to Long Beach brain injury lawyer Michael D. Waks for legal assistance.

For more than 30 years, the Law Office of Michael D. Waks has been representing clients in catastrophic injury cases. To speak to an experienced attorney who is prepared to listen and discuss your legal options, call (888) 394-1174 for a free consultation.

A Severe Brain Injury Isn’t Always Obvious

A skull fracture is easy to see, but sometimes there is no blood, not even a noticeable wound, just subtle signs that something isn’t right — slurred speech, memory problems, mood swings, confusion. However severe the trauma is, it can change your life, and those of your loved ones, forever. The costs can add up quickly, but a Long Beach brain injury attorney can help you seek the compensation you need to make your life whole again.

If you notice any of the above-mentioned symptoms, be sure to visit a doctor immediately. A fast diagnosis may be the key to a better prognosis. Also, seeking prompt care could put you in a more favorable position to pursue monetary damages.

It Takes a Team to Understand the Seriousness of a Head Trauma

Establishing the seriousness of a brain injury and determining possible therapies for restoration of brain capacity may require a team of physicians and neuropsychologists using imaging, studies, and tests. Treatment for a head injury entails time, money, and the right doctors. Because treatment is costly and often long-term, the victim of a brain-injury accident may need compensation for significant medical bills and lengthy rehabilitation.

Long Beach Traumatic Brain Injury Law Firm, The Law Office of Michael D. Waks uses a network of experts to help victims with brain damage, and their families.

In addition to medical professionals, attorney Michael D. Waks employs an aggressive investigative team to examine head injury accidents, and vigorously seeks the maximum compensation from all liable parties.

Damages in a California Brain Injury Case

You may already be aware that a personal injury claimant can seek compensation for their medical bills, but often, this is just a part of the potential settlement. Other damages that might be recoverable include past and future lost income, future medical care, home care, vehicle modifications, pain and suffering, and loss of life enjoyment.

If you or a loved one was involved in an accident resulting in a brain injury in Southern California, Michael D. Waks can help you through this extremely difficult time. Call (888) 394-1174 to discuss your legal rights in a free consultation.

Testimonials

Michael represented me in a personal injury case and I can’t recommend him enough. From the very first consultation he made sure that I was always aware of my options and up to speed with every aspect of my case. He answered all my questions and used his experience and expertise to help guide my decisions instead of trying to make them all for me. He not only ensured that the settlement I received was more than enough to cover all my bills and expenses but he also made sure I had piece of mind and would be taken care of going forward.

I would give attorney Michael Waks 10 stars if I could. It’s not only my case that is in his hands, but my heart is as well. My case is extremely delicate in that my son’s life was lost. From our very first meeting, Michael was very compassionate, sensitive, and determined to do the right thing for my family. He’s resilient and experienced, but he’s also a caring person, and that’s very important to me. Michael’s responsiveness, informative updates, and trustworthy character have made this painful process as easy as possible for me to go through.
