After you sustain a traumatic brain injury, the path to getting compensation for your medical bills, treatment costs, and lost income can be long and complicated. If you are hurt on the job, the workers’ compensation insurance provider may try to prove that your accident wasn’t caused by work, leaving you to handle the bills on your own. If your injuries are caused by a slip and fall accident or car accident, the other party’s insurance provider will do everything in their power to minimize your payout or completely deny you the compensation you deserve.
How do they do that? They may try to get you to accept fault for the accident or use your official statement to discredit your injuries. You’re at serious risk of being manipulated if your head injuries have left you with confusion, memory loss, severe pain, or other symptoms that make it difficult to communicate clearly. Before you’ve even had a chance to understand what’s happening, you may well end up signing away your rights to a settlement in exchange for a sum that won’t even cover your ambulance bill.
The Las Vegas brain injury lawyers at Oronoz & Ericsson, LLC know exactly what tricks insurance companies use and how they try to minimize their companies’ losses. Our goal is to help victims get fair and appropriate compensation for brain injuries. Due to our extensive experience in personal injury law, we are able to handle every step of the negotiation process. Most personal injury cases settle before ever reaching court. If the other side’s insurance company realizes that their client is at fault, they have solid motivation to settle. Going to court has risks, and both sides benefit from a fair and prompt settlement.
Using all of the evidence we have, we will show the insurance company how their client is responsible for your severe or mild traumatic brain injury. By digging into the details of your case, we can figure out how much your medical bills are likely to be, what type of future care you may need, and what your pain and suffering may be worth. We will negotiate aggressively on your behalf to get you what you deserve.
If the other side’s insurance company won’t negotiate in good faith, our work doesn’t stop there. Your head injury lawyer will prepare for court and create a solid case that the jury can’t ignore. Remember, settling is still an option at this point. As we uncover evidence and develop our case, it’s likely that the insurance company will reconsider and come back to the negotiating table. If we go to court, we will do everything in our power to hold the other party accountable. We have successfully negotiated many major and minor traumatic brain injury settlements. Justice is the first step to healing as you and your family recover from your injuries.
After an accident occurs, you may wonder if you really need a brain injury attorney. The initial symptoms of a brain injury are often mild and may lull you into a false sense of security. Seek medical attention of you show any signs of brain injury.
