What Is a Traumatic Brain Injury?
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) occur when an external force damages the brain. TBIs range from mild concussions to severe contusions, skull fractures, and penetrating injuries. Even so‑called “mild” TBIs can cause chronic headaches, memory problems, and mood disorders, while severe injuries may result in permanent cognitive impairment or coma.
Brain injuries disrupt every aspect of life. Victims often require emergency surgery, lengthy rehabilitation, and long‑term support. Many cannot return to work or school. Family members may need to assume caregiving duties while facing overwhelming medical bills.
Common Causes of Brain Injuries
- Car and truck accidents, including rear-end collisions and rollovers
- Motorcycle crashes and bicycle accidents
- Pedestrian and crosswalk accidents
- Slips, trips, and falls on dangerous property
- Workplace accidents and construction site incidents
- Sports and recreational injuries
- Violent assaults and falls from heights
No matter how your injury happened, our legal team can investigate the cause, identify all liable parties, and demand accountability.
Symptoms and Long-Term Effects of Brain Injuries
Brain injuries can manifest immediately or develop over days and weeks. In the hours after a blow to the head, you may experience confusion, headaches, dizziness, nausea, or brief loss of consciousness. Later symptoms can include mood swings, depression, memory loss, difficulty concentrating, sensitivity to light or sound, and sleep disturbances.
Severe TBIs may cause seizures, paralysis, slurred speech, loss of coordination, and coma. Over the long term, victims may suffer cognitive impairment, personality changes, or reduced ability to care for themselves. Children and young adults may have difficulty reaching developmental milestones or returning to school.
Always see a doctor after any head trauma. Documenting your injuries early is critical for your health and for proving your legal claim.

"I had a claim involving my own insurance company. I tried to negotiate with them, and they completely denied my claim – two times. I then hired Strong Law, and the change was instant. The insurance company immediately began negotiating, and Jed was able to secure an unbelievably good settlement. I will never again attempt to take-on an insurance company without Strong Law in my corner. Thank you!"

Steps to Take After a Traumatic Brain Injury Accident
Protecting your health and legal rights starts immediately after an injury. Take these steps to strengthen your claim:
- Seek medical care. Call 911 or go to the emergency room after any head trauma. Follow up with your doctor and specialists.
- Report the accident. File a police report, notify the property owner or employer, and make sure an official record exists.
- Document everything. Take photos of the scene, obtain witness names and contact information, and keep copies of medical records, bills, and prescriptions.
- Track your symptoms. Keep a journal of headaches, dizziness, memory problems, mood changes, or other effects you experience.
- Avoid making statements. Do not post about the accident on social media and politely decline recorded statements from insurance adjusters.
- Contact a lawyer. A TBI attorney can preserve evidence, handle communications with insurers, and ensure you meet important deadlines.
By taking these steps, you protect your health and position yourself for a successful legal claim.

Tacoma Brain Injury FAQs
Tacoma Brain Injury FAQs
What is the statute of limitations for a brain injury claim in Washington?
Most personal injury cases, including brain injury claims, must be filed within three years of the date of injury (RCW 4.16.080). If your claim involves a city, county or other government entity, a notice of claim must be filed within 90 days. Missing these deadlines can prevent you from recovering damages.
What compensation can I recover for a brain injury?
You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, home and vehicle modifications, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
How do I prove my brain injury claim?
Evidence in a TBI case often includes emergency room records, neurology reports, MRI and CT scans, testimony from medical experts, accident reports, witness statements, and documentation of your symptoms and daily limitations.
How much does it cost to hire a brain injury lawyer?
At Strong Law, we work on a contingency fee basis—you pay nothing up front. Our fee is a percentage of the money we recover for you. If we don’t win, you owe us nothing.
How long will my brain injury case take?
The duration of a TBI case depends on factors like the complexity of the accident, the severity of the injury, and the willingness of the insurance company to negotiate. Many claims settle within six to 12 months, but cases involving catastrophic injuries or disputed liability may take longer.
