A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can change your life in an instant. Unlike a broken bone or surface wound, a brain injury is often invisible—but its consequences can be profound. From memory loss and personality changes to chronic headaches and the inability to return to work, TBIs demand serious medical attention and aggressive legal advocacy. At Malloy Law Offices, our Del Ray TBI attorney is here to help you pursue full and fair compensation after suffering a brain injury caused by negligence.
A TBI occurs when a sudden jolt, blow, or penetrating force disrupts normal brain function. TBIs are typically categorized by severity:
Mild TBIs (concussions): May involve dizziness, brain fog, headaches, or temporary memory issues.
Moderate TBIs: Symptoms may persist for weeks or months and impact speech, focus, and coordination.
Severe TBIs: Often result in permanent cognitive impairment, loss of mobility, or even coma.
Even so-called “mild” TBIs can have lasting effects. If you’re experiencing symptoms after a head injury—even if a scan appears normal—you may still have grounds for a claim.
Brain injuries can occur in almost any serious accident. Our Del Ray TBI lawyers frequently handle cases stemming from:
Car accidents and truck crashes, especially high-speed or rear-end collisions
Slip and fall incidents, particularly on unsafe stairs or wet surfaces
Bicycle and pedestrian accidents, where the head is often exposed
Workplace accidents, involving falls or blunt force trauma
Assault or physical violence, including shaken baby syndrome or sports-related head trauma
Bus accidents, where passengers may be thrown without restraint
If another person or entity was careless and caused your injury, we can help you pursue justice and compensation.
TBI symptoms are often delayed and vary by person. If you’ve experienced any of the following after an accident, get checked by a medical professional—and speak to a lawyer:
Memory problems or confusion
Difficulty focusing or following conversations
Headaches, nausea, or vomiting
Sensitivity to light or noise
Fatigue or difficulty sleeping
Mood swings, anxiety, or depression
Slurred speech or vision issues
Documenting these symptoms early is critical to connecting your injury to the event—and holding the at-fault party accountable.
Traumatic brain injuries often impact every aspect of daily life. Depending on the severity, a TBI may cause:
Cognitive dysfunction – Trouble with problem-solving, processing information, or decision-making
Behavioral changes – Anger, depression, mood swings, or impulsivity
Loss of independence – Some individuals require long-term care or supervision
Employment disruption – Many TBI survivors cannot return to their previous job
Strained relationships – Families often bear the emotional and financial burden
These impacts must be taken seriously—and factored into your legal claim.
The cost of treating and living with a traumatic brain injury is substantial. Our attorneys fight for maximum compensation that may include:
Medical bills – Including diagnostics, hospital care, neurological treatment, and medications
Rehabilitation costs – For physical, cognitive, and speech therapy
Lost wages – For time missed from work or diminished earning capacity
Pain and suffering – For both physical and emotional distress
In-home care or assisted living
Home modifications or assistive devices
Wrongful death damages, if the injury was fatal
We work with neurologists, life care planners, and economists to build a claim that reflects your needs today—and long into the future.
