This mild traumatic brain injury case involved an elderly woman who was hit on the head by an unsecured canopy at a local community event. She did not lose consciousness. MRIs and CT scans were normal. She did not have even a scratch on her head. To make matters worse, she stayed at the event until it was over and even took pictures smiling with friends (which the defense made a big deal of). No other lawyer wanted to take her case because it wasn’t worth their time. They did not think her injuries were a big deal – they were “mild”. She was also “too old”, at nearly 80 years of age. Throughout the case, the defense argued that the impact to our client’s head was not sufficient enough of a blow to cause a brain injury. They called it a “bonk”. Six months after we filed the complaint – and after relentless, aggressive litigation tactics – we proved otherwise. After we were able to prove that our client’s injury was not “mild” and brought her brain injury to life, the defense offered $2 million to settle the case. Mild traumatic brain injuries are invisible injuries that are difficult to prove. These types of cases do not involve injuries that can be easily seen like a broken arm or leg. Our litigation team performed magic on this extremely difficult case using simple case strategies that our firm has developed over the years to succeed with proving difficult brain injury cases.
