Fighting for Victims of Traumatic Brain Injuries
Injuries to the brain, also known as traumatic brain injuries or TBIs, can be incredibly serious and cause life-long disability or death. These injuries occur when hard contact is made with the head, such as with a blow, shake, blast wave, or penetrating object.
One common traumatic brain injury is called a concussion. If you have suffered a brain injury due to someone else’s act or negligence, the West Virginia personal injury lawyers at Katz, Kantor, Stonestreet & Buckner may be able to help you obtain compensation for the financial burden of this terrible injury.
