The Lasting Impact of a TBI
Traumatic brain injuries range from concussions to severe, permanent impairment. Even a 'mild' TBI can cause lasting cognitive, emotional, and physical problems. The full extent often emerges over time, which is why these claims must account for future medical care, lost earning capacity, and diminished quality of life.
Documenting a Brain Injury Claim
Brain injuries are sometimes invisible on standard imaging, so building a strong claim requires neurological evaluations, neuropsychological testing, and testimony from medical and life-care experts who can project lifetime costs.
Recovering Full Compensation
Under Utah's modified comparative negligence rule (Utah Code § 78B-5-818), you can recover as long as you are less than 50 percent at fault. The statute of limitations is generally four years under Utah Code § 78B-2-307.
