Personal injury litigation that involves brain injury can be legally and medically complex. We will dedicate all of our resources, including neurologists and other specialists, necessary to find the truth and pursue maximum compensation on your behalf. Head injuries can often lead to traumatic brain injury (TBI), personality changes, depression, permanent disfigurement and the need for life-long medical care. Patrick Shea has represented people in these types of tragic cases and knows the struggle that families endure in these circumstances. Whether through a general personal injury claim or through the workers’ compensation process, if you have suffered a head injury, we may be able to help you obtain maximum compensation.
While some head injuries result in obvious signs of trauma, some victims who suffer a traumatic brain injury do not realize they have been seriously injured until personality changes result or depression arises. Because these types of medical difficulties may be complicated, consulting with specialized neurologists is essential. At The Law Office of Patrick G. Shea, APC, our firm maintains close relationships with medical experts throughout California. Because of our relationships with such medical investigators and our long history of success in such cases, we have been tasked with investigating possible injuries to NFL players that may have resulted from traumatic head injuries. If you become our client, we will dedicate all of our resources to pursuing the type of settlement or judgment you need. Our goal will be to ensure that you or your loved one get the best available treatment, therapy, medical equipment and support.
In Settlement or Judgment, We Pursue Maximum Compensation for You
Patrick Shea and his staff are experienced in negotiating favorable settlements with insurance companies so that your claim for compensation does not need to go to court. However, Patrick is also a seasoned trial attorney who will take any opponent to court if that helps you get the financial support you need. Brain injuries can lead to substantial costs. If you or your loved-one’s injuries were caused by someone else’s negligence or irresponsible behavior, there is no need for you to struggle with the costs for:
- Physical and occupational therapy
- Home adaptations for accessibility
- In-home medical assistance or nursing home care
- Vehicle adaptations for wheelchair accessibility
- Surgeries
- Travel to appointments with specialists
While your own insurance may cover a portion of your costs or the responsible party may have insurance to assist you, many times insurance companies offer low-ball settlements or endlessly delay claims. With our firms assistance, you will have a much better chance of getting maximum compensation through a negotiated settlement or judgment. We can also answer any of your questions about lifetime benefits and creating a trust for a disabled family member.
