A traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs when you sustain any damage to your brain that results in brain dysfunction. Often, TBIs develop after you suffer a blow to the head, when a force violently shakes your brain, or when an object penetrates your skull.
If you are in an accident that leaves you with a TBI, you may be eligible for financial compensation. In these situations, trust the Kirkland brain injury lawyers at Colburn Law to fight tenaciously for your full recovery.

A TBI can result in a wide range of symptoms, depending on the severity and location of the injury. You may experience symptoms immediately after the accident, or they may appear days or weeks after the event.

After a devastating fall left him in a wheelchair for two years, he took on insurance companies and legal obstacles to win his own case. That journey inspired him to fight for others facing similar challenges. Today, Greg is dedicated to helping injury victims hold negligent parties accountable and secure the justice they deserve.

You should always go to the doctor after experiencing any head injury, even if you do not feel hurt. Without prompt treatment, a TBI can result in dangerous complications, such as coma or death.
Many accidents can cause a TBI, including car collisions, workplace accidents, and slip and falls. In some cases, you may be eligible to file a personal injury lawsuit or insurance claim to recover your TBI-related damages, such as medical expenses or lost wages. In these processes, you will need to prove that an at-fault party caused the accident and is liable for your injury and resulting damages.
If you sustained a TBI while at work, you may be eligible for a workers’ compensation claim. You will need to submit a claim to the Washington Department of Labor & Industries (L&I), proving that you sustained the injury while performing your work-related duties.
