Brain injury is the leading cause of death and disability in children and young adults, and lawyer Lawrence Saftler in New York can help clients seek damages. According to the Brain Injury Association of America, every 21 seconds one person in the United States sustains a traumatic brain injury. There are open and closed head brain injuries. An open head injury is when a person has a skull fracture or the skull can become out of place. A skull fracture can allow the brain to swell. Pieces from the skull can cause further injury by entering the brain, as well as no longer protecting the brain. A closed head injury occurs without having the skull fractured.
Brain injuries can occur during numerous types of accidents, including auto accidents, product liability, sports injuries, wounds to the head (such as bullets or knives), physical violence, and Shaken Baby Syndrome. Brain injuries also occur during the disruption of oxygen flow to the brain. Health conditions such as infectious diseases, heart attacks, drug abuse, and more can also cause brain injury.
In the event of a traumatic brain injury not caused by health conditions, such as accidents, medical and legal assistance may be needed. If you have a loved one that has suffered from a brain injury due to the mistreatment or accident of another person, medical and legal assistance is very important.
