Summary: Brain injury results in lifelong challenges for the brain-injured person and his or her family.

Brain trauma results in lifelong challenges for the brain-injured person and his or her family. Brain injuries may show only minor indications immediately following an injury. However, brain injury and closed head injury can result in significant changes to personality, memory, the ability to make decisions, the ability to manage money, the ability to work, and the ability to manage day-to-day functions, tasks and activities. Brain-injured persons can become impulsive, moody, or quick to be angry. Brain injury can cause dramatic emotional, mental and physical changes. Brain injury can cause the loss of the ability to speak, understand, walk, and handle even minor tasks. Brain injury can also cause death.

David Lopez, Esq. has over 20 years experience handling hundreds of serious injury cases, many of those, traumatic brain injury cases. David Lopez has the knowledge, experience, and skill to obtain the financial compensation brain injured persons need to handle the challenges they face. Traumatic Brain Injuries are catastrophic injuries that require careful attention to the future needs and cost of future care for the brain-injured person. Because they are catastrophic injuries, brain injuries can result in life-long disability and the need for life-long medical care, lifecare assistance, learning assistance for even minor skills, and household services assistance, among other needs. Such catastrophic injuries require careful analysis of complicated financial damage calculations, large damage awards, well-crafted structured settlements, analysis of the effects of probable reduced life expectancy, and placing values on a person's daily needs for his or her life expectancy. Experienced analysis is required to carefully calculate the future needs of the brain-injured person and place financial values on those needs to ensure appropriate compensation for the catastrophically brain-injured person.
