Need a Brain Injury Attorney?
Imagine losing your ability to think clearly or remember happy times. Imagine being unable to talk or work or perform the everyday family things you take for granted. Imagine having to spend the rest of your life in a coma. A severe brain injury can happen in an instant and change your life forever.
Serious brain injuries can result from car accidents, semi-truck accidents or truck accidents, drunk driving accidents and motorcycle accidents. Brain injuries also can occur in construction site accidents, birth injuries or cases of medical malpractice.
At The Law Offices of Dianne Sawaya, our brain injury lawyers handle many types of severe head injury cases, such as:
- Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
- Brain damage
- Closed head trauma
- Short-term memory loss
- Post-concussive injury
- Mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI)
An experienced brain injury lawyer at The Law Offices of Dianne Sawaya can help. We take a team approach to handling serious brain injury cases. We have an extensive network of experts and specialists – neurologists, neurosurgeons, life care planners, vocational rehabilitation experts, cognitive retraining specialists and more – who work with us to build your case.
If you’ve been diagnosed with a brain injury or other serious head injury, be sure you get experienced legal advice from Dianne Sawaya before you talk to an insurance company.
Brain injuries are complex, and in an attempt to pay you as little as they can get away with, insurance companies often don’t adequately consider how your future may be changed after a brain injury. We want you to have the money you need to live a productive and healthy life. No matter what caused your accident, we will work to find who was at fault and hold them accountable.
If you or someone you love has suffered a brain injury, call a brain injury attorney at Dianne Sawaya’s law office, (303) 758-4777, or email us for a free evaluation of your brain injury case.
There’s no obligation, and if we work together we won’t charge you a fee unless we get you a settlement or jury award.
