Seizures after Car Accidents

Do you Have the Right to Sue?

Can you sue for the harm that you or a member of your family suffered due to a car accident? If the car accident was caused by the negligent actions of a drive or entity, you could sue for all the harm resulting from the incident. Could you sue for the seizure condition that you developed after a head injury or brain injury? You have the right to sue for any harm associated with the car accident – even if the harm develops weeks or months after the incident.

If you decide to pursue a claim, you must be able to establish negligence – that is, that the car accident occurred due to the negligence of a driver or other entity. A lawyer can help you prove that the car accident resulted from negligence.

How can you prepare to sue? Immediately after the car accident, there are a number of things that you should do. Consider some of the following recommendations:

• Take photos of all visible injuries caused by the accident
• Take photos of the damage to the vehicles involved in the incident
• Take photos of the entire scene of the incident
• Collect the contact information of all parties involved in the incident
• Gather insurance information from all parties involved in the incident
• Seek medical attention for the harm resulting from the auto accident
• Collect medical records
• Collect records of lost income
• Collect records of property damage
• Seek legal assistance as soon as possible

As previously mentioned, brain injuries can eventually lead to the development of seizure conditions. After your injury, your doctor likely warned you that seizures could occur.

As soon as you suspect that you are experiencing seizures, you should do the following:

• Seek further medical evaluation – ensure that your doctors know that you suffered a brain injury
• Speak with your lawyer – if you have already started the legal process, you must speak with your lawyer immediately to ensure that she or he can make the appropriate adjustments to your claim

For more information regarding your right to sue for the seizure condition that you developed after a brain injury suffered in a car accident, do not hesitate to seek legal assistance with the experts at our firm immediately.

Could You Recover Compensation?

Based on the details surrounding your claim, you could be eligible to recover compensation for the harm that you or a member suffered due to a car accident. Although every claim is different, you could be eligible to recover compensation for some of the following:

• Medical expenses
• Loss earnings
• Pain and suffering
• Loss of consortium
• Funeral and burial expenses
• Punitive damages
• Property damages
• Legal fees

How much compensation could you be eligible to recover? What type of compensation could you receive if your claim is successful? The type and amount of compensation that you could be eligible to recover is strictly based on the details surrounding your claim; therefore, the best thing that claimants can do is to speak with an experienced lawyer to discuss the potential compensation that they could be eligible to receive. When you allow the experts at our firm to handle your claim, you can trust that our lawyers will not rest until you recover the maximum amount of compensation available for your claim.

The Statute of Limitations

All claims are subject to a statute of limitations. The statute of limitations determines the total length of time that claimants have to file their claims; if claimants do not file their claims quickly, they could lose their right to sue for the harm that they suffered. How long do you have to pursue your claim? In California, car accident claims are typically subject to a two-year statute of limitations. This means that you will only have two years to pursue your claim. However, based on the details surrounding your claim, it is possible for exceptions to apply. If you are interested in learning more about the total length of time that you have to pursue your claim, contact us at your earliest convenience.
