Brain Injury Lawyers

What Causes a Brain Injury?

A brain injury is a broad term. Some brain injuries are more serious than others. For instance, a concussion is a form of brain injury. Most people fully recover from concussions and have no lasting effects. More serious brain injuries, such as bleeding and pressure on the brain, can leave someone fully disabled or can even cause death. Depending on the severity of the brain injury, it may be referred to as a traumatic brain injury (TBI).


Brain injuries may be caused by:

  • Being a victim of a violent crime, including domestic abuse, mugging, or assault
  • A sports accident
  • A diving accident
  • A construction accident
  • A car accident
  • A boating accident
  • A truck accident
  • A motorcycle accident

This list isn’t all inclusive. However, it does list common causes of brain injuries.

What Are the Symptoms of a Brain Injury?

Symptoms of a brain injury can differ depending on their severity. If you’ve been in an accident of any kind and experience any of the following symptoms, make sure that you get medical assistance right away. With early intervention, the long-term effects of a brain injury may be minimized.

  • Dizziness or lightheaded feeling
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Sensitivity to light
