Understanding the Cost of Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injuries typically require longer hospitalization, recovery time and often result in some form of disability. As a result, it is important to recover compensation proportional to your medical and life-care needs. At the personal injury law office of Mingo & Yankala, S.C., we work closely with economists, life-care planners, and vocational experts in determining cost projections over the lifetime of a brain injury victim. We consider costs associated with surgery, in-home nursing care, physical therapy, medical equipment, and lost wages. If necessary, our attorneys create a day-in-the-life video to explain to jurors the daily challenges faced by our client and the loss in quality of life. After an award or settlement has been reached, we will discuss with you structured settlements and other forms of compensation.
