If you have just received news that your loved one has (or might have) a traumatic brain injury, you will want to find out about the specifics of the brain injury. See "types of brain injury" and "common terms" to gain some understanding about what this means. If your loved one is in the ICU or a neuro ward of a hospital, you will want to read about "traumatic brain injury and the family" and understand the symptoms of brain injury. Depending on the specifics you may also want to look at some of our "medical articles" on brain injury and rehabilitation. Our "FAQs" will address many common questions for those new to brain injury.
If you are dealing with a traumatic brain injury we strongly suggest that you consult with specialized counsel experienced in dealing with brain injury. Read "Six reasons to retain a brain injury lawyer" to understand why. You may also want to review our article called "Legal Issues Following Brain Injury."
If there is a 'defendant' and insurance company involved, we recommend immediately retaining legal counsel while also concentrating on rehabilitation and recovery. For information on dealing with ICBC see our "ICBC Information Guide".
If you are just finding out about brain injury and the injury occurred a long time ago, consider reviewing the 'symptoms' of brain injury as well as the sections on 'community resources' and 'medical articles'.
If you are a lawyer , please call us for a consultation (free of charge) about any serious or permanent injury case.
