Glendale Accident Attorneys

California Brain Injury Lawyers

Even when no visible head injury is present, a brain injury may still occur. Even from a simple and seemingly minor car accident or slip and fall, any head impact can cause bruising or swelling of the brain and cause complications. That is why it is so important to seek medical attention even after a minor accident. You may have injuries that will not show up until later unless you get medical help.

A brain injury is categorized as a catastrophic injury because it is potentially life-threatening and can have an enormous impact upon a person’s motor functions, memory and even personality. Additionally, an insurance policy may not cover brain injuries. If you would like to seek compensation for your medical expenses and wage loss, having an attorney handle your claim and case is a logical step to take.

In the case of a traumatic head injury, a person may be unable to work for months or may be disabled permanently. The importance of an approved insurance claim for the full amount you are entitled to is of the essence. At the Law Offices of Yarian & Patatanyan, we understand this and therefore do our utmost to help you get the full claim amount you are eligible for. Even if insurance cannot cover all of your expenses, we will seek other means to obtain money as payment for damages.
