Brain Injury

Wilmington, Delaware, Brain Injury Lawyers

Concussions and brain damage often go undiagnosed in the aftermath of an accident. The person who is affected may not look any different after the accident. Eventually, family members begin to notice symptoms of traumatic brain damage (TBI) such as forgetfulness, difficulty in following directions or irritability.

Anyone who suffers a brain injury is likely to need lifelong medical and personal services. At the law firm of Murphy & Landon in Wilmington, Delaware, our lawyers are known for handling major personal injury cases, including cases that involve life-altering conditions such as brain and spinal cord damage.

A brain injury can result from an impact to the head in a car or truck accident. It can also result from swelling or bleeding in the brain or the surrounding tissues. With "closed head" injuries, there is no outward sign that a brain injury has occurred.

Brain damage cases can range from mild to severe. The earning capacity of any brain injury victim will be significantly affected. In cases of severe brain damage, the victim will not be able to work.

In Foley v. Elkton Plaza, Murphy & Landon was able to secure a $312,000 verdict for a victim who slipped on ice on a commercial property, which left the victim with a vestibular injury, permanent vertigo and unable to work.
