What Our Clients Say
What Is Considered a Head Trauma Injury?
“Head trauma” refers to any injury to the scalp, skull, or brain, ranging from mild to severe. These injuries are often categorized by type and severity, with some causing temporary symptoms and others resulting in long-term disability or even death.
Common Types of Head Trauma:
Concussions – Mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBIs) often caused by a blow or jolt to the head.
Contusions – Bruising of brain tissue due to direct impact.
Penetrating Injuries – When an object breaks through the skull and enters the brain.
Diffuse Axonal Injury – Damage from violent shaking or rotational forces, common in car accidents.
Skull Fractures – Breaks or cracks in the skull, which may or may not impact the brain.
Hematomas – Blood clots or bleeding in or around the brain, often requiring emergency surgery.
Even so-called “mild” brain injuries can result in cognitive, emotional, and physical difficulties. It’s essential to take any head injury seriously and seek medical and legal help as soon as possible.

Why You Need a Carrollton Head Trauma Injury Lawyer

What to Do After a Head Injury
If you or a loved one has suffered a head injury, taking the right steps early can protect both your health and your legal rights.
1. Seek Immediate Medical Attention
Even if symptoms seem mild, a proper diagnosis is essential. Traumatic brain injuries are not always obvious.
2. Follow Medical Instructions
Attend all follow-ups, take prescribed medications, and comply with therapy. These records strengthen your legal case.
3. Document Everything
Photograph your injuries, keep a journal of your symptoms, and save receipts for medical expenses and lost work time.
4. Avoid Giving Statements to Insurance
Don’t let the insurance company twist your words or pressure you into a lowball settlement.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How long do I have to file a head injury claim in Texas?
In most cases, the statute of limitations for personal injury in Texas is two years from the date of the accident. There are exceptions, but waiting too long can bar you from filing a lawsuit, so it’s important to speak with a lawyer as soon as possible.
What if I wasn’t diagnosed with a brain injury right away?
It’s common for head injury symptoms to be delayed. If a doctor later confirms your brain injury is related to the accident, you may still have a valid claim. Always report all symptoms to your healthcare provider and document the progression of your condition.
How much is my head trauma case worth?
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer. Your case value depends on the severity of your injury, long-term effects, lost income, and other damages. We work with medical experts to estimate lifetime costs and fight for fair compensation based on your needs.
What if the insurance company says my head injury is “mild”?
Insurance companies often downplay concussions and mild TBIs to reduce payouts. But “mild” doesn’t mean harmless. We know how to challenge these tactics with medical evidence and expert testimony to protect your rights.
Will I have to go to court?
Many head injury claims settle out of court. However, if the insurance company refuses to make a fair offer, we are fully prepared to go to trial to advocate for your best outcome.
