What is a Traumatic Brain Injury?

A traumatic brain injury occurs when a sudden trauma—like a blow to the head, violent shaking, or a penetrating wound—disrupts normal brain function. TBIs can range from mild concussions to severe brain damage and often lead to long-term or even permanent disabilities.

  • What should I do immediately after a motorcycle accident?
    Your safety comes first. Call 911 if you’re injured, move to a safe location if you can, and seek medical care immediately—even if you feel fine. Then, document the scene with photos, exchange information with other parties, and avoid making statements about fault. Contact an experienced motorcycle accident attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.
  • Why do I need a lawyer for a motorcycle accident?
    Motorcycle riders are often unfairly blamed or lowballed by insurance companies. A lawyer helps you level the playing field, proves the full extent of your injuries, and handles all the paperwork and negotiations—so you can focus on healing.
  • Can I recover compensation if I wasn’t wearing a helmet?
    Yes. Kentucky law does not automatically prevent you from seeking compensation if you weren't wearing a helmet, but it could impact your case. The other side might argue that your injuries were worse because of it. A skilled attorney can help defend your right to full and fair recovery.
  • How long do I have to file a motorcycle accident claim in Kentucky?
    In Kentucky, the statute of limitations is generally one year from the date of the accident for personal injury claims. For property damage, it’s two years. But the sooner you file, the stronger your case—waiting can hurt your chances.
  • What if the other driver says the accident was my fault?
    Don’t admit fault and don’t assume they’re right. Fault in motorcycle accidents can be complex and often requires investigation. Police reports, traffic cams, and witness statements can make a huge difference. Let your attorney gather the facts before conclusions are made.

Common Causes of TBI

Understanding the source of your injury is key to your case. Some of the most common causes of TBIs include:

  • Motorcycle Accidents: High-speed collisions often result in serious head trauma.

  • Slip and Fall Injuries: Especially in stores, playgrounds, or icy sidewalks.

  • Car Accidents: The leading cause of traumatic brain injuries nationwide.

  • Workplace Accidents: Particularly on construction sites or industrial settings.

  • Sports Injuries: Concussions from football, boxing, or other contact sports.

  • Assaults: Blunt-force trauma during violent encounters.

 

If your injury resulted from a preventable accident, a Kentucky traumatic brain injury attorney for children or adults may be able to help you pursue justice.

Symptoms of Traumatic Brain Injuries

TBIs present differently depending on severity. Watch for these common signs:

  • Loss of consciousness

  • Confusion or memory issues

  • Headaches or migraines

  • Nausea or vomiting
