Phoenix, Arizona Brain Injury Lawyer
Motorcycle accidents and car accidents are two causes of traumatic brain injury (TBI). TBI can also be caused by bike crashes, falls, explosive shock waves, on the job accidents and sports-related accidents. TBI can reach from one end of the spectrum to another. They can be very mild or extremely severe. If you have a TBI you might suffer personality changes, have impacted sleep patterns, or have changing bodily functions. The most serious kinds of brain injuries can lead to irreversible brain damage that impact your entire life and your relationships.
Traumatic Brain Injury Symptoms
There are several symptoms that can result from TBI. The symptoms you suffer can depend on the severity of your injuries.
- Dizziness

Brain injuries of the most serious nature might cause a vegetative state or coma. When someone is in a coma, you don’t show signs of awareness or wakefulness. When someone is in vegetative state, you are awake but show so no sign signs of being aware of what is happening.
Ways to Avoid Traumatic Brain Injury
There are ways to prevent traumatic brain injuries or significantly reduce their risk of occurrence. They are often the result of failing to wear a bicycle helmet or a motorcycle helmet. Studies show
that in an accident or fall, wearing a helmet can significantly impact the severity of the injuries sustained. Studies show that riders who don’t wear a safety helmet are 37% more likely to die in an accident than those who do wear one. If during the claims process it is determined that the injuries sustained were partially caused by the failure to wear the proper helmet, the amount of compensation received by the victim can be significantly reduced.
