Nassau County Brain Injury Attorney
More than one million people sustain brain injuries each year in the United States, and the effects can be devastating. Some people may be able to make a full recovery after a brain injury, but other brain injuries may lead to permanent disability and sometimes death. The Nassau County brain injury team at Sullivan Papain Block McManus Coffinas & Cannavo, P.C. is dedicated to helping brain injury victims and their families recover compensation for injuries caused by someone else’s fault.
Brain Injury Team
- Our brain injury team is committed to representing your best interests. We will work with insurance companies and defense attorneys to negotiate a settlement that fully and fairly compensates you and your family.
- We approach each case as though we are taking it to trial so that we are wholly prepared if settlement negotiations break down. Most of our brain injury cases eventually settle, but in some cases, trials are necessary for injury victims to secure the compensation that they deserve.
- Our law firm has helped our clients recover more than $2 billion in settlements and trial awards over the past ten years. Every case is important to us, and our attorneys pursue maximum compensation for every injury victim.
- Brain injuries can occur following a car accident, motorcycle accident, bus accident, or construction accident.
Brain Injury Symptoms
No two brain injuries are the same. There are many types of brain injury symptoms, and injury victims may experience any number and combination of those symptoms. Common symptoms include temporary loss of consciousness, dizziness, confusion, and loss of memory. Brain injuries may also cause pain, loss of concentration, sleep disturbances, irritability, and changes in personality. Severe brain injuries can cause loss of mobility and other bodily functions.
How We Can Help
After a brain injury, it is critical to make sure that you get the medical treatment that you need. It is also important to make sure that you recover the compensation that you deserve, and we can help with both. Our brain injury attorneys can help you get an expert brain injury diagnosis and evaluation so that you can get appropriate medical treatment.
Your brain injury evaluation will help us understand the extent of your injuries and the impact those injuries will have on your future. The value of your claim depends on several factors including whether your injury is temporary or permanent, if the injury leads to lost wages, and if it impacts your ability to earn a living in the future. Other factors include your medical expenses, future medical expenses, and pain and suffering.
Fatal Brain Injuries
Our attorneys may be able to help surviving family members recover compensation for fatal brain injuries under a wrongful death claim. Under New York law, close family members may recover for financial losses they have suffered as a result of losing their loved one. These losses may include loss of the decedent’s financial support, loss of the value of the decedent’s household services, medical bills, funeral expenses, and other damages. In some cases, recovery may be available for the decedent’s pain and suffering as well.
