What Is a Traumatic Brain Injury?
A traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs when a blow or jolt to the head damages the brain. Brain injuries range from mild to severe. Some people recover quickly. Others face lifelong challenges.
Brain injuries fall into two main categories:
- Open Head Injuries: The skull is broken or penetrated. Brain tissue may be exposed.
- Closed Head Injuries: The skull remains intact, but the brain is damaged inside. These injuries are often harder to detect.
Common Types of Brain Injuries
Some of the common types of brain injuries you can incur are:
- Concussions are the mildest form of traumatic brain injury. They result from a blow to the head or violent shaking. Most people recover from concussions, but some experience lasting effects.
- Brain Hemorrhages involve bleeding in the brain. This bleeding can increase pressure inside the skull. Brain hemorrhages are serious and require immediate medical attention.
- Diffuse Axonal Injuries occur when nerve fibers throughout the brain are damaged. These injuries often result from violent shaking or rotation of the head. Recovery can take months or years.
- Brain Edema (brain swelling) happens when fluid builds up in the brain. Swelling increases pressure inside the skull and can cause permanent damage.
How Do Brain Injuries Happen?
Falls cause nearly half of all traumatic brain injuries in Arizona. Motor vehicle crashes account for the majority of TBI-related fatalities, in addition to slip and falls, assaults, and firearm-related suicide. Pedestrian accidents, workplace injuries, and assaults also cause brain injuries.
Common causes include:
- Falls from heights or on level surfaces
- Car accidents and truck collisions
- Motorcycle and bicycle accidents
- Workplace accidents
- Sports injuries
- Assaults and violence
Brain Injury Symptoms
Brain injury symptoms can appear immediately or develop over days, weeks, or months. Some symptoms are obvious. Other signs are subtle and easy to miss.

Brain Injury Compensation
Arizona law allows brain injury victims to recover two types of damages:
- Economic Damages cover your financial losses. These include medical bills, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, and future medical care.
- Non-Economic Damages cover your pain and suffering. These include physical pain, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and permanent disability.
Mild concussions might settle for tens of thousands of dollars. Severe brain injuries can reach hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. The value of your case depends on the injury severity, medical expenses, lost income, and long-term effects.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to file a brain injury lawsuit?
Arizona law gives you two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. This deadline is called the statute of limitations. Missing this deadline means you lose your right to sue. Contact us immediately if you have been injured.
What if I was partially at fault for the accident?
Arizona follows comparative negligence rules. You can still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault. However, your recovery is reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you were 20% at fault, you recover 80% of your damages.
How much is my brain injury case worth?
The value of your case depends on several factors. These include injury severity, medical expenses, lost wages, age, and long-term effects. Most brain injury cases settle before trial. We evaluate your case and provide an honest assessment of its value.
How long does a brain injury case take?
Simple cases may settle in months. Complex cases can take one to three years. We work efficiently to resolve your case quickly. However, we never rush to settle for less than what your case is worth.
