About our Advocacy: We of the Brain Injury Law Group provde brain injury legal representation. But advocacy is more than being a lawyer. Advocacy means dedicating resources to the community the TBI community - the survivor, the family member of the survivor, the medical professional. To that end, we have created these TBI pages to help you learn and solve the problems you face.
Who We Represent: The actual practice of the Brain Injury Law Group is representing TBI clients injured as a result of the neglicence or wrongful conduct.
Of the questions we have heard in our years of brain injury advocacy, three themes keep repeating themselves:
- This TBI resource begins with three major divisions:
- Brain Injury Coma information;
- Information about Concussion, what we have been calling Subtle© Brain injuries on these pages for more than a decade, that condition more formally known as "mild brain injury"; and
- Brain Injury Symptomatology, the symptoms of the Post Concussion Syndrome.
Brain Injury "Coma Waiting Page": Since the beginning of our web advocacy we have focused on what we can do to help the family of someone in a brain injury coma, while they are waiting for progress. That continues to be the theme of this page, and its companion page: waiting.com.
Concussion: Our starting point of what we now simply call "subtle brain injury" (what is medically referred to as the post concussion syndrome) is correcting the ignorance about TBI. A TBI can occur even though there was no documented loss of consciousness, no blow to the head, and even though all imaging studies have been normal. We focus on efforts on explaining the science of TBI at subtlebraininjury.com. To continue on with our treatment of TBI click here.
Symptomatology: The third major area of focus is a detailed treatment of the symptoms and challenges of TBI. From the beginning of the Brain Injury Law Group we have been struck by the numerous miracles in coma cases, and the countless tragedies in the non-coma cases. Remarkably all severity of TBI often pose very similar chronic challenges to the survivor and the survivor's family and friends. After the severe brain injury conditions have been identified and treated, the diffuse and subtle problems relating to fatigue, memory, multi-attending and depression remain. So while we have expanded our treatment of the coma brain injury one of our most important missions is to broaden understanding of the subtle effects of brain injury. Click here.
The Brain Injury Law Group is involved with a network of plaintiff's trial attorneys across the United States united by a common interest in serving the rights of persons with traumatic brain injuries and a common commitment to fully understanding the anatomic, medical and psychological aspects of TBI, so we may be of better service to the survivors of TBI. This network of lawyers are not part of a national law firm. We have separate law practices and are licensed to practice only in our home states.
The Brain Injury Law Group is here to listen and for that reason we maintain an 800 number and a staff willing to discuss your case and legal information where appropriate. There is no charge to call. We only represent people on a contingent fee basis and charge a fee only when we recover for the client. For more on Attorney Gordon Johnson, click here.
