Personal Injury

Brain Injury

Per the Brain Injury Association of America, an acquired brain injury (ABI) is an injury to the brain that is not hereditary, congenital, degenerative, or induced by birth trauma. Essentially, this type of brain injury is one that has occurred after birth. The injury results in a change to the brain’s neuronal activity, which affects the physical integrity, metabolic activity, or functional ability of nerve cells in the brain. There are two types of acquired brain injury: traumatic and non-traumatic.

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is defined as an alteration in brain function, or other evidence of brain pathology, caused by an external force. Traumatic impact injuries can be defined as closed (non-penetrating) or open (penetrating).

Often referred to as an acquired brain injury, a non-traumatic brain injury causes damage to the brain by internal factors, such as a lack of oxygen, exposure to toxins, pressure from a tumor, etc.

Wrongful Death

Wrongful death claims require special skills to pursue because these claims are controlled by statute. In the past, a person who had been seriously injured but lived would be able to recover significant compensation for his or her economic or non-economic losses from the at-fault party, but no one could recover should the victim pass away due to his or her injuries. States have since passed laws to allow certain family members of people who have been wrongfully killed, or the decedent’s estate, to pursue recovery for their losses. If a loved one has died because of someone else’s fault, it is important to call Nicholson Law Firm today at 603-856-8441 for a free case evaluation.

Wrongful death claims arise from car accidents, pedestrian accidents, truck accidents, ATV accidents, medical malpractice, motorcycle accidents, pool accidents, construction accidents, assaults, and other recreational accidents.
