Retaining an experienced, trial-hardened personal injury lawyer after a brain injury is an essential step toward recovering full compensation for your suffering. The medical and rehabilitative costs associated with a traumatic brain injury can quickly snowball. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that the annual cost of traumatic brain injury in the United States is roughly $48.3 billion.
