What Accidents Can Cause Brain Injuries?

There are several different accidents that can cause serious brain injuries, all of which can stem from someone else’s negligence. Some of the most common of these accidents include the following:

Falls, including slip and fall accidents
Car accidents
Motorcycle accidents
Sports injuries
Truck accidents
Pedestrian accidents
Explosion accidents

If you want to take legal action against another party after any of these accidents, you need to prove that negligence put you in harm’s way. You can do this by investigating the circumstances that led to your accident, including deliberate driver misconduct, landowners’ failures to maintain their properties, or mechanical failures.

Our brain injury lawyers in Cleveland can manage an investigation on your behalf, whether you plan on bringing a personal injury claim to civil court or filing for support through an insurance provider.

When Should You Contact a Cleveland Brain Injury Lawyer?

The weeks and months following a brain injury can leave your family out of sorts. Unfortunately, there are several parties that may want to take advantage of your stress and confusion. These parties can include insurance claims adjusters and even the parties responsible for your accident.

Insurance companies may attempt to remove evidence that is key to your recovery from an accident scene. An at-fault party may try to invoke Ohio’s comparative negligence laws to blame you for a percentage of your accident. All the while, you have to worry about Ohio’s personal injury statute of limitations and building a claim before your two–year filing deadline expires.

It’s with recovery interference and fast-coming deadlines in mind that we recommend you contact a Cleveland brain injury lawyer sooner rather than later. Your first case consultation comes free of charge and does not obligate you to continue pursuing a claim.

Can Cleveland Brain Injury Lawyers Help You File Insurance Claims?

Our team can help you file an insurance claim immediately following a brain injury. Our involvement in your pursuit of an insurance settlement can minimize an insurance company’s bad-faith tactics, making it easier for you to:

Communicate the true value of your losses
Prevent insurance claims adjusters from requesting inappropriate personal information
Deny an insurance company’s recorded or written statements about your losses
Get the settlement you need to pay your bills

However, insurance claims only allow you to recover damages based on your economic losses. Fortunately, our team can help you explore alternative funding options, including the pursuit of a personal injury claim.

Can an Experienced Attorney File a Personal Injury Claim on Your Behalf?

Unfortunately, some brain injuries can have a long-term impact on a person’s ability to represent their best interests. In these cases, an injured party has the right to forfeit responsibility for the legal aspects of their recovery to a personal representative. That representative may then work with an experienced brain injury attorney in Cleveland to draft a personal injury claim.

If you have the right to represent an injured loved one and would like to do so, you can schedule a free case evaluation with our office. We can discuss the logistics of pursuing legal action on someone else’s behalf and how we can help you build your case.

What’s the Average Brain Injury Settlement?

We individually calculate the value of our clients’ brain injury settlements. Because we don’t base our calculations on an overarching average, we can more effectively individualize the settlements our clients receive.

When calculating the value of your compensation, you can count on our team to address your:

Pain and suffering
Emotional distress
Reduced quality of life
Emergency medical expenses
Lost wages
Long-term brain injury treatments
Temporary or permanent disabilities
Property damage and restoration

Our team has a long history of getting results for survivors like you. Let’s discuss your right to fair compensation during your free case evaluation.

How Can You Hold the Right Liable Party Responsible for Your Brain Injury Losses?

No Cleveland, OH, brain injury lawyer will force you to go to trial if you want to fight for loss-based compensation. In fact, many of our cases are resolved in out-of-court settlement negotiations.

If a liable party recognizes that their negligence resulted in an accident, and you walked away with a serious brain injury, they owe you money. You can lay out an estimate of your losses during negotiations and discuss how a liable party plans to compensate you.

If you can’t come to an agreement during settlement negotiations, your attorney may prepare you to go to civil trial. We can represent you throughout the trial process and, in high-stress cases, keep your contact with a liable party minimal. We can also account for any physical or mental complications a brain injury may introduce into your life.

We know that brain injuries can rob you of your independence, job opportunities, and physical health. Don’t let your injury rob you of your financial security, too. You can book a FREE, no–obligation case consultation with our staff today.

For the most part when you need legal representation something has not gone well. You are concerned, anxiety is up, you feel low, even frightened, and there does not seem to be a light anywhere around. Thus, I am very happy that I called CooperElliott. Much of that despair began to lift, I knew I had someone behind me, in front of me, beside me, and that I was not alone. I was treated like I had been a client for forever by everyone I was in contact with and met with. A great firm that will fight for you, and that means a great deal when you need someone who will do that with you. Thank you CooperElliott.

Through the law firm Cooper Elliott, I dealt with attorney, Bart Keyes. Bart was very thorough and understood that I Had no clue of how this process would go. Bart took the time needed to help educate me on this process for a very positive outcome.I can’t thank Bart and the staff at Cooper Elliott enough for all they have done for me. I am now able to move on with my life!

My name is Anthony Johnson and I just spoke with Ben Cooper about a wrongful accusation case, unfortunately they don't take on cases such as these but Ben gave me some valuable information and I could tell he really was trying to help me. Very knowledgeable and a great listener. Give him all call for anything law related. Made me feel important.

I worked with Adam Richards and his team. They were empathetic to my situation and extremely professional. I don't know what I would have done without their expert guidance and counsel. Adam really knows his stuff, and it was clear he had an excellent rapport with all who assisted in the case. Adam's communication abilities were next level. I never had to worry about getting ahold of him when needed. I know he and his team will continue to knock it out of the park for all future clients like they did for me.

My husband, Bob and I were injured in an automobile accident in December, 2022 when someone came through a Stop sign. We contacted Cooper Elliott, and were fortunate to work with Sean Alto and Kaela King. They came to our home several times to meet us and discuss the case, and got to know us personally as well as professionally. They really care about their clients! In addition, Michael Tonovitz stayed in contact with us to keep us informed on the progress of the case, which was resolved to our satisfaction.We highly recommend this law firm for personal injury!

I am so glad I found cooper Elliot. My attorneys Jon and Adam helped me through the entire process. After a traumatic experience in my life I was confused and in pain. They worked tirelessly to become familiar with all the details of my story and represented me in a way that made me more able to process and understand the trauma myself. This was huge for me, while there’s still healing to do, I can do that work now instead of staying in a purgatory of cognitive dissonance. They didn’t just win justice for me, they are a significant part of my healing journey. They were validating, non judgmental, honest, and knowledgeable.

Jonathan Bond handled a personal injury claim for me quickly with maximum results. He’s pleasant and enjoyable to work with, as well as compassionate. The firm handled all the legwork of getting medical records and copies of paperwork, which not all firms do. I would recommend Jonathan to anyone and would definitely go back to him if the need were to arise again.

Very satisfied! We dealt with Bart Keyes who showed genuine interest in our situation. Bart was always very quick to respond when we had questions and kept us informed throughout the case. If you need legal representation for a commercial real estate dispute we highly recommend Bart and the Cooper Elliot firm!

I honestly struggle to find the words to describe how incredible this firm is, especially Jeffrey Kenny and Sean Alto. 7 years ago, my family started a journey through a nightmare. When the criminal justice system fell woefully short, Jeff agreed to take on our incredibly challenging and lengthy case, with no other reason than that it was the right thing to do, and he believed we deserved justice. There were so many times when I would have understood if they walked away, but they refused and vowed to get us the justice we deserved, and almost 7 years later, they have given my family just that. I will never, ever, forget what they have done for us. We were never just another case. They made us feel like we were their ONLY case! Thank you will never come close to the gratitude and respect I have for Jeff and Sean, as well as for Cooper Elliott. They will be superheroes in our home, forever!

Everyone from top to bottom in this company is always polite and ready to help. and no matter what is thrown their way, it's handled quickly and skillfully. Whoever represents you will show themselves to be a master in their craft. You can feel safe working with Cooper Elliott.

I would highly recommend Cooper Elliott to any of my friends and family! Chip Cooper was extremely helpful guiding me through a difficult process. Chip was patient with me and provided feedback during the process that kept me informed until the desired outcome was achieved. There were interactions with other staff of the firm (whose names I do not know) that were helpful as well, I was impressed with the entire team!

Adam Richards is the best attorney I have ever met. He is responsive and very patient (I had a lot of questions) and he truly cares. He fought hard for me and he stands up to the bully. he is not afraid to take on anyone. Anytime I hear someone who has a legal issue I go out of my way to recommend Adam. He is unlike any attorney I have ever met. He is compassionate and he always answers his phone. There is no way I would have got the results I received with any other attorney. He was a bulldog in my case and really went to bat for me. Words cant express how grateful I am to him. His actions personally affected my life in a very positive way. He protected me in so many ways I couldn't begin to name them. It is a great feeling when you know your attorney outmatches the other party's attorney and it is obvious.
