Our Los Angeles Heady Injury Lawyer Helps Clients Throughout California

When someone suffers a head injury because of a Los Angeles accident, it is very common for them to suffer a more serious brain injury which may dramatically affect their quality of life.  A head injury generally occurs when someone suffers an injury to their spinal cord, head, skull or brain.  The most severe type of head trauma is often referred to as a traumatic brain injury.  A head injury may either be a closed head injury or an open head injury.  A closed head injury may result from either a car accident in which someone hits their head on their windshield or a motorcycle rider who hits his head on the pavement after a motorcycle accident.  Head injuries occur so frequently that there are an estimated 1.1 million people who are treated for traumatic brain injuries each year in a hospital.

Head Injury / Head Trauma
Head trauma is one of the most traumatic injuries because it results in permanent physical disabilities.  Additionally, a head injury may result in a skull fracture, blood clot or bruising.  Some of the most common symptoms someone may suffer includes:

• confusion;
• clear fluid draining from your nose and / or ears;
• lethargy;
• loss of consciousness;
• no breathing;
• no pulse; and
• severe bleeding from face or head.

If you have suffered a brain injury, it may have resulted from one of the various types of auto accidents, a slip and fall accident or other physical injury.  While many people have suffered a brain injury during their lifetime, very few of these people have needed to seek medical attention because the injuries have not been severe.  Statistically, males aged 15 - 24 are the most likely to sufer head injuries because of a car accident or motorcycle accident.  Also, about 70% of all accidental deaths and disabilities
