Traumatic Brain Injury Attorneys in Spokane, WA

Layman Law Firm Works Extensively in Traumatic Brain Injury Law

One specific area of law that we have become very well-known all over the Seattle area, as well as nationwide is handling Traumatic Brain Injuries. Not only have we successfully handled dozens of cases in this area, but many of the lawyers here at our firm have been and are deeply involved in various brain injury associations that work to help victims of these injuries get back on their feet.

For example, here are a few of the places that our lawyers actively are giving back to the brain injury community:

With increased attention from contact sports organizations such as the NFL and NHL, brain injuries are a fast-growing segment of medicine and are gaining great awareness in our culture.

In the past, you were just told to ‘shake it off’ and get back in the game. What we have started to realize after seeing the horrific after-effects of this type of behavior is that the brain isn’t getting a chance to fully recover and heal, leaving it more susceptible to further injury, which could potentially be fatal.

In the cases we handle, these brain injuries are more often caused by vehicle and auto accidents, which often include other bodily injuries that will heal over time. Sadly, the injuries to the brain are ones that are much harder to see and diagnose, so often get overlooked, or treated a just a normal injury that will heal shortly.

If you don’t have the proper medical care, and representation against the insurance companies, then chances are you won’t get the care you need to properly recover, which can lead to a lifetime of pain and suffering.

You can rely on our experience and involvement with the brain injury community to know your case is being handled correctly.

Why would you put your future to chance with a cheap TV lawyer?

You owe it to yourself and your family to find the best brain injury representation you can, get the most out of your case, and the justice you deserve.
