From falls to vehicle crashes, traumatic brain injuries are life-altering. We’ll fight for maximum compensation so you can focus on healing.
Why brain injuries need specialized advocacy
TBIs can be invisible on early scans yet life-altering at work and home. New York’s dense streets—from FDR and the BQE to the corridors around the Williamsburg and Brooklyn Bridges—produce high-force impacts even at city speeds. Mason Law PLLC coordinates care and proof for cognitive, emotional, and vocational harm, whether your TBI followed car accidents, micromobility incidents like bicycle accidents, or medical errors that fall under medical malpractice.
Common causes of TBIs in NYC
- Car, truck, and rideshare collisions: Impacts in FiDi, Midtown, and Atlantic Ave traffic; doorings and sudden stops that jolt occupants.
- Bicycle, moped, and e-scooter crashes: Lane intrusions along Kent Ave and Bedford Ave; bridge-approach conflicts.
- Falls: Subway station slips, apartment stair falls, and store incidents citywide.
- Medical/oxygen-related events: Anoxic or hypoxic brain injuries arising in medical settings.
From immediate medical treatment to ongoing rehabilitation and long-term care, we fight tirelessly to ensure you receive full compensation and justice after a traumatic brain injury.
Signs, symptoms, and documentation
- Headaches, attention/memory issues, mood and sleep changes: Track how symptoms disrupt work, commuting, and daily routines.
- Medical follow-up and neuropsychological testing: Specialist care and formal testing help quantify deficits.
- Tracking daily limitations and work impacts: Journals, employer notes, and therapy records support damages.
Building a strong TBI case
- Coordinating specialists: Neurology, neuropsychology, vestibular therapy, and rehab medicine build a complete picture.
- Proving causation and future needs: We use life-care planners and vocational experts to project treatment and earnings losses.
- Negotiation strategy and trial readiness: We negotiate from a well-documented record and file in Kings or New York County when necessary.
Damages and long-term support
- Medical expenses and therapy: ER, imaging, neuro consults, therapy, and medications.
- Lost income and diminished earning capacity: Pay stubs, HR records, and expert wage analyses.
- Pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment: We present the day-to-day impact with clarity and evidence.
