Atlanta Brain Injury Lawyer

The human brain is extraordinary.  It is a nerve center that serves as “mission control” for the entire human body.  The brain plays an important role in everything we do and in defining who we are as individuals.  Fortunately, the brain is well protected from physical trauma by the skull and from potentially toxic substances by a protective membrane referred to as the “blood-brain barrier.”  Yet, the brain is still vulnerable and thousands of people each year suffer debilitating brain damage.

Our Atlanta brain injury lawyer knows that a brain injury can come from a variety of harmful mechanisms including, among others:

  • Exposure to toxic substances;
  • Anoxic brain damage (total deprivation of oxygen);
  • Hypoxic brain damage (partial deprivation of oxygen);
  • Untreated infection;
  • Stroke;
  • Tumor;
  • Burst aneurysm; and
  • Traumatic brain injury or TBI (physical trauma such as that sustained from a fall, car, or truck accident.)

Brain injuries, regardless of the cause, can be physically, emotionally, and financially crippling.  These terrible injuries can dramatically impair a person’s ability to function and enjoy life.  When a brain injury affects a person and family due to the negligence or wrongful conduct of others – whether from a motor vehicle accident, a fall, medical malpractice, a dangerous product, a near-drowning in an unsafe pool, or from some other harmful mechanism – the legal system may allow for just and substantial compensation.

Slip-and-Fall Cases Won

Accidents on some other individual's property occur, and injuries are frequently the outcome. Nevertheless, when somebody else's negligence (or carelessness) is a factor, you may be concerned about your legal rights. Whether you seek an insurance payout or bring a personal injury suit, you must prove that somebody else (the premises owner, in most cases) is legally liable for your injuries to win your claim.

Liability Theories in Slip-and-Fall Cases An injured individual must normally show one of the following to hold another party liable for injuries sustained in a slip-and-fall incident: A premise owner (or an agent or employee of the property owner) should have detected a potentially hazardous situation and eliminated or corrected it…

Slip-and-Fall Interrogatories to Defendant

If you cannot resolve a slip-and-fall injury case out of court, the plaintiff might well be required to bring a personal injury suit in civil court. If this occurs, the parties to the litigation — that is, the complainant (the injured individual) and the defendant (often the premises owner) — will disclose information about the incident and crucial components of the complainant's claim in a procedure known as "discovery." The issuance of interrogatories from one side to the other is a key discovery tool. Interrogatories are written queries, which must be answered honestly, in writing, and under oath by the receiving party ("under penalty of perjury," in Georgia). Slip-and-Fall Interrogatories To Defendant The primary concern in a slip-and-fall claim is generally if the premises owner — or the person or organization responsible for overseeing the premises — did not make sensible efforts to avoid the plaintiff's mishap. The complainant must…
