Carr & Carr

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can impact people's lives in a variety of ways. You may be unable to communicate; long-term memory may be erased or severely impacted; your ability to perform simple day-to-day tasks may be impaired. These may be some of the worst-case scenarios, but even mild brain injury can alter your life substantially. In our years of practicing law, the firm of Carr & Carr has seen many, many individuals whose lives have been severely disrupted by TBI.

Time Reveals the Extent of Brain Injury
Since every person's brain has unique characteristics, no two brain injuries are the same. Also, the impact of brain injury is not always immediately apparent. Social, emotional and physical changes can occur independently, or all three can happen at the same time. Doctors can only theorize on how the brain injury will affect your life; time will tell the real story as to your ability to perform at your pre-accident functional levels. It may take weeks or years to reveal the true outcome of your injury.

Associated Costs are Astronomical
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that each year, 260,000 people require hospitalization for TBI. Permanent damage is the outcome in 70,000-90,000 of these incidences. The costs of long and short-term care, rehabilitation and re-training are approximately $37 billion.
