A brain injury refers to any damage to the brain caused by trauma, such as a blow to the head, or by medical conditions affecting brain function. These injuries can range from mild concussions to severe, life-changing damage. Recognizing the severity and nature of brain injuries is critical when pursuing legal action, as it affects both the claims process and the compensation sought.
Brain injury cases typically involve proving negligence or fault, documenting the extent of the injury, and calculating the damages, including medical costs and lost wages. The legal process may include gathering witness statements, expert testimonies, and detailed medical records to build a compelling case.
Familiarizing yourself with these legal terms can help you better understand the process and your rights in brain injury cases.

In brain injury matters, clients may choose between seeking a limited approach focusing on specific claims or pursuing comprehensive legal action addressing all related damages. Each option has its merits depending on individual circumstances and goals.
If the brain injury is mild and the damages are straightforward, a limited legal approach may efficiently address compensation for medical bills or lost wages without extensive litigation.
When the responsible party is willing to settle early and the compensation fully covers the injury’s impact, a limited approach can save time and resources.
Severe brain injuries involving long-term care or loss of earning capacity require a detailed and broad legal approach to ensure full compensation.
In cases where fault is contested, comprehensive legal services provide thorough investigation and advocacy necessary for challenging such disputes.
A comprehensive approach ensures that all dimensions of your injury are evaluated, including current and future medical costs, emotional distress, and lifestyle changes.

In Minnesota, the statute of limitations generally allows you to file a personal injury claim within two years from the date of the injury. However, exceptions might apply depending on the case specifics. Contacting an attorney early ensures timely action and helps avoid losing your right to compensation due to missed deadlines.
Compensation can include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and costs of ongoing care or rehabilitation. Each case is unique, so the amount depends on the extent of injuries and impact on your life. An experienced attorney can help calculate damages accurately to pursue full compensation.
Most brain injury cases are handled on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay legal fees only if we secure a settlement or verdict in your favor. This approach makes it accessible to pursue justice without financial burden upfront. During a consultation, we explain all costs and fee structures transparently.
Case duration varies widely based on complexity, insurance negotiations, and whether litigation is necessary. Some cases may resolve within months if settled quickly, while others may take a year or more if going to trial. We strive to resolve claims efficiently while ensuring your best interests are protected.
Filing a claim years after a brain injury can be challenging due to statutes of limitations, but exceptions may exist, especially if the injury was not immediately diagnosed. Contacting an attorney will help determine if your case qualifies despite the time elapsed.
Bring any medical records, accident reports, photographs, and documentation related to your injury and its circumstances. This information helps us evaluate your case and provide informed legal advice from the start.
Many brain injury cases settle out of court through negotiation or mediation. However, if a fair settlement cannot be reached, we are prepared to take your case to trial to seek full compensation. We discuss all options with you to choose the best path.
Medical records, expert testimony from neurologists or rehabilitation specialists, and psychological evaluations are critical evidence demonstrating injury severity. Proper documentation is necessary to support your claim effectively.
