Traumatic Brain Injuries Create Long-Term Challenges

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are often the result of a sudden impact on the head. They can change how you manage daily tasks, communicate with loved ones, and continue your usual routines. You may struggle with memory, balance, or concentration, affecting your ability to work, manage household responsibilities, or participate in activities you once enjoyed. Physical symptoms, such as headaches, dizziness, or sensitivity to light, can interrupt sleep and make it difficult to return to your usual routine.

Families often step in to help with medical appointments, transportation, and adjustments at home. They may monitor symptoms, coordinate treatment schedules, or assist with tasks that now feel overwhelming. This shift in responsibilities can affect everyone in the household as loved ones adapt to new routines. These challenges can evolve as the injury changes over time, and it may take patience, structure, and continued medical guidance to regain stability.

Your Legal Options After a Traumatic Brain Injury in Alabama

Under Alabama law, you may pursue compensation when another party causes you harm. To succeed, though, you will need to prove negligence. Evidence plays a major role in these cases, and our office gathers this evidence, such as:

  • Incident and police reports
  • Medical records
  • Diagnostic imaging
  • Collision reconstruction
  • Witness statements
  • Phone records or surveillance footage

This evidence helps our office establish liability, supporting the link between the event and the injuries you face. We use this evidence to guide settlement negotiations and prepare for hearings when needed.

Statute of Limitations for a Traumatic Brain Injury Case in Alabama

Alabama law generally gives you two years to file a personal injury lawsuit after a traumatic brain injury. This deadline applies to most cases involving collisions, falls, workplace impacts, and other events that cause harm. The countdown usually begins on the date of the incident, and any delay can limit your ability to move forward with a claim.

Our office tracks all filing deadlines for our clients and explains what steps you need to take before the statute expires. These efforts help protect your ability to bring a lawsuit and allow your family to focus on treatment while we manage the legal timelines.

Actions to Take After a Traumatic Brain Injury

After a traumatic brain injury in Trussville, you can take several actions right away to protect your health and strengthen your future claim:

  • Depending on the type of accident, call 911 so first responders can document the incident and provide immediate medical assistance.
  • Get medical care immediately at facilities such as St. Vincent’s East or UAB and follow all treatment recommendations.
  • Avoid speaking with the insurance companies until you talk with our office, since early statements can affect your claim.
  • Save any damaged property, including clothing, safety gear, or personal items involved in the incident.
  • Photograph the accident scene, visible injuries, and anything that shows how the event occurred.
  • Collect names and contact information for witnesses or anyone who saw the incident.
  • Keep all medical paperwork organized, including imaging results, discharge documents, prescriptions, and follow-up instructions.
  • Write down the timeline of events as soon as possible while details remain fresh.
  • Call the Law Office of Dwayne L. Brown so our office can guide you through the next steps and help protect evidence.

Trussville, Alabama, Traumatic Brain Injury FAQs

How long do I have to file a traumatic brain injury claim in Alabama?

You generally have a limited time to act under state law, so timely action protects your ability to pursue a claim.

Can I file a claim on behalf of a family member?

You can act as a representative when your relative cannot manage the process, and our office can explain how that role works.

What happens if the insurance company denies responsibility?

A denial does not end the case, and additional evidence or evaluations may help clarify how the traumatic brain injury occurred in your claim.
