Accidents that Cause Head Injuries

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) may occur because of a blow to the head or a forceful jolt to the body that causes the brain to shift inside the skull. Head injuries may also result from penetration, with a knife, nail or gunshot, for example. Oxygen deprivation and toxins may also cause brain damage. We regularly handle TBI cases involving these types of accidents:

• Fall:Falls often occur around the home or at work. A brain injury victim may slip or trip or fall down steps or off a ladder. Children risk falling from playground equipment, off a trampoline or out of a crib.
• Vehicular accidents:One of the most common causes of TBI are automobile accidents involving motorcycles, cars, tractor-trailers, ATVs or watercraft. Pedestrians and bicyclists who are hit by an automobile are at high risk of brain injuries.
• Sports:Young athletes are particularly susceptible to sports injuries, especially while participating in gymnastics, cheerleading, football, lacrosse, hockey, skateboarding, snowboarding and skiing and other contact and extreme sports.
• Violence:An assault victim may suffer brain damage when she or he is struck by a gunshot or pushed, hit or beaten. The assault may have occurred because of inadequate security on a premises or as an act of domestic violence.
• Shaken baby syndrome:Child abuse at the hands of a daycare provider or nanny can result in head injuries. Babies’ delicate brains can be injured by a seemingly minor jolt, referred to as shaken baby syndrome.
• Explosives:Military personnel may experience lingering effects from the blasts of explosives while on active duty. Certain industrial and manufacturing jobs may also expose workers to explosion-related brain injuries.
• Toxic exposure:Exposure to brain-damaging toxins may happen under certain dangerous work conditions or from defective household products.
