How Our California Traumatic Brain Injury Law Firm Can Help
A severe traumatic brain injury can dramatically alter the course of your life in the blink of an eye, and at Feher Law, we do everything in our power to help smooth the way forward.
Determinación de responsabilidad
Personal injury claims involving injuries as serious as TBIs are especially complex, and determining liability in your claim is of primary importance. The savvy legal team at Feher Law takes a comprehensive approach to pinpointing liability in these nuanced cases.
1. Thorough Investigations
We launch a thorough investigation for every case we take on, which includes gathering and compiling all the relevant evidence regarding the precipitating accident, such as :
- El testimonio de un testigo visual
- The testimony of professionals with related expertise
- Accident reconstruction models
- The police report and any additional information generated by the authorities, such as any tickets issued in a traffic accident
- Your medical records along with your doctor’s report regarding your condition and prognosis
- Your account of how the injury has changed your life as well as the related testimony of those who know you best
2. Careful Legal Analysis
Identifying the responsible party in a TBI claim requires careful analysis and a deep understanding of the legal principles involved. Whether your claim relates to a traffic accident, a slip and fall accident, an accident caused by a faulty consumer good, or an accident on the job, the experienced California personal injury lawyers at Feher Law are standing by to help.
3. Collaborations With Leading Experts
For claims as complex as those involving TBIs, we often collaborate with leading medical experts as well as those in the field of accident reconstruction models to help gain a more thorough understanding of the injury itself and how it was sustained.
4. The Calculation of Comparative Fault
In California, a brain injury victim can seek compensation for the percentage of fault that the other party is responsible for – even if they, themself, share fault in the matter. At Feher Law, we’ll leave no stone unturned in our efforts to accurately identify and quantify the other party’s negligence – in focused pursuit of a fair settlement or court award.
¿Quién puede ser considerado responsable?
The matter of who can be held liable in your traumatic brain injury case comes down to the kind of accident involved. Some of the most common causes of brain injuries break down into several basic categories.
Accidentes de Tránsito
If you were injured in a traffic accident, the other driver’s negligence may be identified as the cause. Driver negligence can take many forms:
- Distracción
- exceso de velocidad
- Agotamiento
- Incumplimiento de las normas de circulación
- Agresión
- Discapacidad
En el trabajo
If your brain injury occurred on the job, you may be able to hold your empleador responsible for your damages – especially if they engaged in a particularly egregious form of negligence, such as a willful failure to create a safe working environment or to follow occupational safety standards.
Propiedad pública
If you’re injured on public property as the result of negligence – such as in a traffic accident on a poorly maintained roadway – the governmental entity responsible can be held liable for your resulting losses.
Faulty Consumer Goods
If a product that was faulty by design or defect caused you to suffer a head or brain injury, the el fabricante can be held responsible in a product liability claim.
Accidents on the Properties of Others
If you slip and fall or are otherwise injured on someone else’s property – as a result of unsafe conditions related to the owner or manager’s negligence – you can seek compensation via a reclamación de responsabilidad de locales.
Recovering Losses
The losses you experience in the aftermath of a serious injury like a TBI can be difficult to overstate, including in each of the following:
- El gastos médicos you experience will depend on the severity of your injuries, but they are very likely to be considerable and ongoing and may include the cost of physical and cognitive rehabilitation, physical and occupational therapy, assistance with the activities of daily living, home health care, and modifications to your home.
- After suffering a brain injury, returning to work may not be a possibility. A loss of this magnitude often comes with a serious emotional component – in addition to the profound financial loss you experience.
- Head injury victims often liken the results to an altered sense of self, which translates to immense emotional pain and suffering. In fact, this psychological element can overshadow the other categories of loss you experience combined.
Brain injuries are expensive injuries, and to adequately recover on your losses, you need an experienced brain injury lawyer in your corner from the start.

Cases Involving Both Brain and Spinal Cord Injury
Severe traffic collisions, falls from height, and workplace accidents frequently cause both traumatic brain injury and spinal cord injury in the same incident. These combined cases require coordinated medical and legal expertise because the symptoms overlap, treatment plans must be unified, and the long-term care costs are substantial.
If you or a loved one suffered injuries to both the brain and the spinal cord, our California traumatic brain injury attorneys handle these combined catastrophic injury cases. We coordinate with neurology, neurosurgery, and rehabilitation specialists to document the full extent of the injuries.
Why Combined Brain and Spine Injury Cases Are Different
- Higher settlement values: Lifetime care costs for combined TBI and spinal cord injuries typically exceed $5M to $10M+, well above either injury alone.
- Specialized medical evidence: Combined cases require neurology, neurosurgery, neuropsychology, and physical medicine experts to document harm.
- Longer case timelines: Recovery and final medical assessments take 18 to 36 months, which affects when settlement maximizes value.
- More complex damages: Lost earning capacity, 24-hour attendant care, home modifications, durable medical equipment, and adaptive technology all add up.
Brain and Spine Injury Settlement Ranges (2026)
| Combined Case Type | Rango de liquidación típico | Casos catastróficos |
|---|---|---|
| Mild TBI + cervical spine soft tissue | $200,000 - $750,000 | $1 millón – $2 millones o más |
| Moderate TBI + spinal cord injury (incomplete) | $ 1 millones - $ 3 millones | $3 millón – $7 millones o más |
| Severe TBI + spinal cord injury (complete) | $ 3 millones - $ 10 millones | $10 millón – $25 millones o más |
| TBI + paralysis (paraplegia) | $ 2 millones - $ 7 millones | $10M+ |
| TBI + paralysis (quadriplegia) | $ 5 millones - $ 15 millones | $15 millón – $30 millones o más |

What increases TBI case value: documented imaging showing brain damage (CT, MRI), neuropsychological evaluation showing cognitive deficits, lost earning capacity (especially for high-skilled professions), need for lifetime care, and clear liability evidence. ¿Qué disminuye el valor? pre-existing cognitive issues, lack of imaging evidence, full recovery within 6 months, and missed medical appointments.

Important Initial Steps to Take
One of the hallmarks of brain trauma is that it is not only exceptionally dangerous but is also completely unpredictable, which means that, if you sustain a traumatic brain injury as a result of someone else’s negligence, your experience will be utterly unique to you. This said, however, there are certain steps that everyone in your difficult situation can benefit from:
- Seek the immediate medical attention that you require. TBIs can be difficult to diagnose and don’t always present with easily identifiable symptoms, which makes it that much more important to pursue medical care.
- Reach out to a practiced head injury lawyer as soon as you’re able to do so, which is one of the most important steps you can take.
- Carefully follow your medical team’s advice and instructions, which includes scheduling the treatments, tests, and procedures you need as well as following through with all your appointments.
- Report the accident to the proper authorities, such as the police if the accident was a traffic collision. This creates a record of the event, which can help bolster your claim.
- Retain your medical records, which will outline the physical and mental health challenges you’ve faced as a result of the other party’s wrongdoing.
- Collect all the evidence that you can –including photos and videos taken at the scene of the accident as well as the testimony of eyewitnesses and their contact information.

Fechas límites
El estatuto de limitaciones – or the time limit – for filing a brain injury lawsuit in California is dos años from the date of the injury-causing accident or two years from the time that you knew – or reasonably should have known – that you’d suffered an injury. Relative to the seriousness of your TBI, this isn’t a lot of time, which makes contacting an experienced California brain injury lawyer sooner rather than later to your advantage.
Recopilación de pruebas:
As mentioned, evidence is critical to your TBI claim, and it can come in many different forms:
- Your medical records and your doctor’s accounting of your condition, your recovery to date, and your prognosis
- The accident or police report and any additional official documentation
- El testimonio de un testigo visual
- Accident reconstruction models
- Testimonio experto
- Photo and video evidence, including any relevant dashcam or security camera footage
- Your personal account of how your life has been affected by the brain damage you’ve suffered and similar testimony from those who know you best
While your claim will hinge on evidence, you may not be capable of contributing to the evidence-collection process. If this is the situation you find yourself in, keep in mind that others at the scene of the accident are almost certain to involve themselves and that your attorney has the necessary expertise to get the job done.
Evidence About Specific Injuries
To begin, brain injuries are categorized in terms of being either closed or open:
- Lesiones cerradas refer to those caused by either a blow to the head that is serious enough to damage the brain tissue or by injuries that cause the brain to bang injuriously back and forth against the skull.
- Open injuries, on the other hand, refer to penetrating injuries, such as gunshot wounds.
When you combine this information with the fact that there are several distinct parts of the brain that control specific bodily functions, there is considerable room for diverse impairments stemming from brain injuries.
While no two brain injuries are ever exactly alike, the most common types include:
- Conmociones cerebrales
- Fracturas del cráneo
- Swelling of the brain – or cerebral edema
- Diffuse axonal injuries, which refer to tears in the brain that are caused by external forces
- Subdural hematomas – refer to bleeding near the brain that often occurs post-injury
- Hypoxia – oxygen deprivation
- Ischemia – blood deprivation
- Trazo
- Lesiones penetrantes
Signos y Síntomas
Brain injuries are unpredictable and can be very difficult to diagnose, but some of the signs and symptoms that are most closely associated include:
- The onset of dizziness
- Unexplained shifts in mood or personality
- Confusion or a sense of disorientation
- Dolores de Cabeza
- Dificultad para concentrarse
- Impedimentos del habla
- Pérdida del equilibrio
- Extreme drowsiness – or difficulty waking up
- Sensory disturbances, such as ringing in the ears, loss of smell or taste, or blurred vision
- Pérdida de la memoria
- Pérdida de consciencia
Mild vs. Moderate and Severe TBIs
El Centros para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades de EE. UU. (CDC) distinguishes between mild TBIs and moderate and severe TBIs, and they are careful to point out that any injury to the brain is serious, including a mild TBI. The consequences can affect how the victim thinks, acts, feels, learns, and sleeps. While most people recover from mild TBIs relatively quickly, those with a history of repeat injuries can face more serious symptoms and more difficult recoveries that can include long-term consequences.
When it comes to moderate and severe TBIs, however, the prognosis is much more dire. Consider the statistics related to five-year outcomes shared by the CDC:
- 30 percent of the injuries worsened
- 22 percent of the injuries stayed the same
- 22 percent of the injuries proved fatal
- 26 percent of the injuries showed improvement
If you’re suffering from a brain injury, your focus should be on recovering to the fullest extent possible. While you attend to this top priority, your accomplished accident attorney will attend to gathering the evidence necessary to build a robust claim that is difficult for the involved insurance company to refute.
¿Qué puedo esperar pagar?
The immense cost associated with a brain injury may leave you wondering how you can possibly take on the additional expense of experienced legal counsel, but this isn’t something you need to worry about during this challenging time.
We only get paid on a contingency basis, which means we’re paid based on a prearranged percentage of your settlement or court awards. In other words, you won’t owe anything up-front, and if your claim isn’t successful, you won’t owe anything at all.

Preguntas Frecuentes
What is the average TBI settlement in California?
The complexities of TBI claims are so unique and the injuries themselves are so nuanced that it's impossible to offer an average settlement amount. Suffice it to say that related settlements and court awards tend to be high – based on the serious consequences that victims endure.
How much is a mild traumatic brain injury worth?
Even a mild traumatic brain injury is a serious injury that can lead to lifelong consequences. This means that your losses can be immense, which translates to considerable worth. A defining factor of TBIs is that they are unpredictable, and therefore, every claim must be assessed on its own merits.
¿Cuánto cobran los abogados de lesiones personales en California?
Most reputable personal injury lawyers in California work on contingency, which means their pay is based on the outcome of their claims. In other words, you won't owe anything up-front. Instead, your TBI attorney will receive a predetermined percentage of your settlement or court award once the matter is finalized.
¿Cuánto tiempo se tarda en resolver un caso de lesiones personales en California?
Claims involving traumatic brain injuries are some of the most legally challenging and nuanced in the personal injury space. While this means that your claim may take longer to settle, sacrificing your overall compensation in order to expedite the process is not in your best interests.
What are the long-term effects of a traumatic brain injury?
TBIs can cause lasting cognitive, emotional, and physical effects including memory loss, difficulty concentrating, mood changes, chronic headaches, and in severe cases, permanent disability. These long-term impacts are factored into your compensation claim.
Can I file a TBI lawsuit if my injury happened at work in California?
Yes. While workers' compensation may cover some costs, you may also have grounds for a personal injury lawsuit if a third party such as an equipment manufacturer or negligent contractor caused your injury. An attorney can help you explore all available claims.
