Brain and Head Injuries

San Francisco Brain Injury Attorneys

Serving Injured People Throughout California, Arizona and Nevada

Trauma to the brain can have lifelong and devastating consequences. Injuries that initially seemed minor could be much worse than they appeared, resulting in significant personality changes, loss of mobility and even death. The experienced personal injury attorneys at the Brandi Law Firm understand the lasting effects these injuries have on victims. With over 70 years of combined experience, we have handled thousands of injury cases, and we have the compassion, skill, and dedication to help every client obtain the financial compensation they need and deserve.

If you or a loved one has suffered a traumatic brain injury or a closed head injury, e-mail our San Francisco law office, or call us toll free at 800-481-1615 or locally at 414-989-1800 for a free consultation.

Our attorneys have extensive experience handling many kinds of serious head injuries:

  • Skull fractures from slip and fall accidents, or auto accidents
  • Traumatic brain injury from blunt trauma to the head as in car or truck accidents or falls in the workplace
  • Closed head injuries leading to concussion or tearing of brain tissue
  • Hypoxic brain injury from lack of oxygen, as experienced in fires

People who have suffered brain and head injuries may lose short or long-term memory, the ability to make decisions, sensory function, the ability to handle and manage money, the ability to care for themselves safely and lose impulse control. Their personalities can dramatically change. Sometimes they become prone to mood swings and emotional outbursts, or could begin gambling or drinking to excess.

Brain injuries can be subtle, and it takes a skilled attorney to convey the true impact of the injury on a person’s life. Unfortunately, some jurors may initially discount the affects of subtle personality changes or memory loss, or may doubt that these changes have developed as the result of head injuries.

Over the years, our lawyers have successfully handled thousands of personal injury cases, securing over $1.5 billion in compensation for our injured clients. We regularly work with experts to convey the full impact of injuries on our clients’ lives. Our commitment to quality representation has led us to seek out the very best expert witnesses available. The neuropsychologists, neurologists, cognitive therapists, rehabilitation physicians and psychologists we work with are leaders in their fields, coming from some of the most prominent health care organizations and institutions in the country.

In addition to expert witnesses, we also effectively use family members, friends and coworkers (both past and present) to help jurors understand how our clients’ lives have changed. People who are intimately familiar with the victim both before and after the injury are powerful witnesses, able to convey even the most subtle of personality changes to the judge and jury.

If you or someone you love has suffered a serious brain or head injury, contact us today for a free consultation. You can send us an e-mail, call us toll-free at 800-481-1615 or locally at 415-989-1800.
