Brain Injuries Can Have Lifelong Consequences — We Help You Move Forward
Even a “mild” head injury can have serious and lasting effects on daily life.
Brain injuries often don’t show their full impact right away. Symptoms may emerge over days or weeks — including memory loss, headaches, confusion, mood changes, or speech difficulties.
These injuries can result from a variety of incidents, such as:
- Car, motorcycle, or truck accidents
- Falls on unsafe premises
- Workplace injuries and construction accidents
- Physical assaults or shaken baby syndrome
- Sports injuries
- Defective products or faulty equipment
Whether your TBI is classified as mild, moderate, or severe, you deserve full compensation and the support you need to rebuild your life.
Understanding Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)
TBIs occur when a blow or jolt to the head disrupts normal brain function — sometimes permanently.
Traumatic brain injuries can vary in severity and impact:
Concussions
Contusions
Penetrating Injuries
Diffuse Axonal Injuries
Anoxic Brain Injuries
Symptoms may include physical, cognitive, emotional, and sensory impairments — many of which may last a lifetime.
Who May Be Liable for a Brain Injury in Milwaukee?
Multiple parties may be responsible depending on how the injury occurred.
Establishing liability requires a thorough review of how the injury happened and who failed to prevent it. Liable parties may include:
- Negligent drivers in motor vehicle accidents
- Property owners who failed to maintain safe premises
- Employers who ignored workplace safety standards
- Product manufacturers in cases of defective helmets or safety equipment
- Medical professionals in birth injury or malpractice cases
- Sports coaches, schools, or organizations that failed to provide proper care
Our legal team works to uncover the facts, build a strong case, and hold every responsible party accountable.

Brain Injuries Often Require a Lifetime of Medical Care
Treatment for a brain injury can involve surgery, rehabilitation, therapy, and long-term support.
TBI victims often require:
- Emergency medical treatment
- Hospitalization and neurological evaluations
- Physical, occupational, and speech therapy
- Mental health counseling
- In-home care or assisted living
- Lost income and loss of earning capacity
These costs add up quickly — and insurance companies frequently undervalue TBI claims. Our team ensures all current and future expenses are accounted for.

Challenges in Brain Injury Claims
TBI cases are often misunderstood and undervalued — especially by insurers.
Some common challenges include:
- Delayed or subtle symptoms that insurers claim are unrelated
- Disputes over the severity or cause of the injury
- Lack of immediate loss of consciousness used to downplay the trauma
- Insurance adjusters offering settlements that ignore long-term consequences
We fight back with medical evidence, expert reports, and strong advocacy to ensure your story is heard and your needs are addressed.
What to Do After a Brain Injury in Milwaukee?
Acting quickly can preserve your health and strengthen your legal claim.
- Seek immediate medical attention – Brain injuries are serious and can worsen without treatment.
- Follow up with specialists – Neurologists and therapists can help monitor symptoms and recovery.
- Document symptoms and changes – Keep a journal of how the injury affects daily life.
- Avoid signing anything from insurers – Don’t accept a settlement without legal advice.
