What to Do After Suffering a Brain Injury in an Accident

CASE EVALUATIONS ARE FAST, EASY, AND FREE.

The time following a traumatic brain injury can be confusing, especially since you might not understand all that has happened to you. You are likely facing a difficult road to recovery and ever-increasing medical bills that you shouldn’t be responsible for covering if your accident was someone else’s fault.

When you’re unsure of how to move forward after a severe head injury, the assistance of a qualified lawyer can make all the difference. We will help you weigh your options, file a personal injury claim, and hold the person who hurt you accountable.

Get Help from an Experienced Attorney

Before anything else can be done, it’s important to retain the help of an attorney. The process of filing a personal injury claim can become quite complex; specific deadlines need to be met and complicated legal jargon is a lot to handle when you’re already dealing with a traumatic brain injury.

At Craig Swapp & Associates, we take pride in our principle of always prioritizing the needs of our clients. Your lawyer will be able to explain our next steps and advocate for you so you are able to spend your time focusing on recuperating.

Organize Evidence to File a Personal Injury Claim

Once you’ve hired a lawyer, we will begin by taking your statement of the events of your accident. Then, we will collect additional evidence to support your case. This may include witness statements, police reports, and medical documentation, all of which can help establish the severity of your injury and your need for compensation from the liable party.

While gathering evidence, we will be able to determine who should be held responsible. How we determine this will depend heavily on the type of accident you were involved in. For example, if you were involved in an auto accident, we would investigate the vehicles involved and the other driver for fault.

Next, we will use the diagnosis and opinion of your medical team to calculate how much we should seek for compensation in your brain injury claim. We do this by adding the amount of your medical costs and lost wages to the non-economic damages we are able to place a value on.

Finally, we will begin negotiations with the insurance company or negligent party before resorting to going to court. Should the other side fail to deliver a reasonable settlement offer, we are prepared to bring your case to court.

Client Reviews

“I was concerned with all the paperwork”

Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"

My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"

I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"

I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"

My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
