How can a brain injury lawyer help with my case?
A brain injury lawyer can help by investigating the cause of your injury, gathering evidence, and determining liability. They will handle communications with insurance companies, negotiate settlements, and represent you in court if necessary. Their goal is to secure the maximum compensation for your medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
What types of compensation can I seek in a brain injury lawsuit?
You can seek compensation for medical expenses (current and future), lost wages, loss of earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, rehabilitation costs, and any necessary home modifications. In some cases, punitive damages may also be awarded if the responsible party’s conduct was particularly egregious.
How long do I have to file a brain injury lawsuit?
The statute of limitations for filing a brain injury lawsuit varies by state but is typically between one and three years from the date of the injury. It is important to consult with a brain injury attorney like those at Chandler Law as soon as possible to ensure your claim is filed within the legal timeframe.
What factors can affect the outcome of my brain injury lawsuit?
Factors that can affect the outcome include the severity and impact of your injury, the strength of the evidence, witness testimonies, and the degree of liability assigned to each party. The skill and experience of your attorney and the insurance company’s willingness to settle also play significant roles.
What evidence is needed to support a brain injury claim?
Evidence may include medical records, accident reports, witness statements, photos of the accident scene, expert testimonies, and documentation of your injuries and their impact on your life. An experienced brain injury attorney at Chandler Law will help you gather and present this evidence effectively.
How long does it take to resolve a brain injury lawsuit?
The timeline for resolving a brain injury lawsuit can vary widely depending on the complexity of the case, the willingness of parties to settle, and the court’s schedule. It can take anywhere from several months to a few years to reach a resolution.
Can I still file a lawsuit if I was partially at fault for my brain injury?
Yes, you may still be able to file a lawsuit even if you were partially at fault, depending on your state’s comparative negligence laws. Your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but a brain injury attorney at Chandler Law can help determine the viability of your claim.
Will my brain injury case go to trial?
While many brain injury cases are settled out of court, some may go to trial if a fair settlement cannot be reached. Your brain injury attorney at Chandler Law will prepare your case for trial and represent you in court if necessary, but they will also work to achieve a favorable settlement whenever possible.
