Brain injury law focuses on proving how a traumatic brain injury happened, who is legally responsible, and the full long-term costs, medical care, rehabilitation, lost income, and quality-of-life impacts. A brain injury lawyer gathers medical evidence, works with expert witnesses, and negotiates or litigates to secure compensation that reflects both immediate needs and future consequences.

A traumatic brain injury can change a person’s life quickly and in ways that are not always obvious at first. Many brain injuries are invisible. Symptoms often develop over time and can affect work, relationships, mood, and daily functioning. The impact is frequently felt not only by the injured person, but also by their family.
If you or someone you care about suffered a head injury because of someone else’s negligence, it is important to work with a lawyer who understands both the medical complexity of brain injuries and how these cases are evaluated legally.
At Tan Ngo Law Firm, we focus on building well-documented brain injury cases that reflect what our clients are actually experiencing, not just what appears on early scans.
Car and rideshare accidents
High-impact collisions can cause the brain to move violently inside the skull. Even without a direct blow to the head, the force alone can result in a traumatic brain injury.
Motorcycle and bicycle crashes
Motorcyclists and cyclists lack the protection of a vehicle. Even with a helmet, the force of a crash can cause serious brain trauma.
Falls
Slip and fall accidents are a leading cause of brain injuries, particularly among older adults.
Workplace accidents
Construction sites and industrial settings pose risks from falling objects, equipment failures, and elevated work areas.
Concussions and mild traumatic brain injuries
“Mild” is a medical classification. It does not mean the injury is minor. Concussions can lead to post-concussion syndrome lasting months or longer.
These are bruises on brain tissue caused by direct impact and may require surgical intervention.
Anoxic and hypoxic brain injuries
These injuries occur when the brain is deprived of oxygen and can result in permanent impairment.
Common symptoms include chronic headaches, dizziness, memory problems, difficulty concentrating, mood changes, depression, anxiety, sensitivity to light or sound, and fatigue.
Documenting how these symptoms affect daily life is critical.
A strong brain injury case often involves accident investigation, detailed medical review, expert consultation, documentation of functional changes, and analysis of future care needs.
Brain injury cases require patience and preparation. At Tan Ngo Law Firm, we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you do not pay unless we obtain a recovery.
At Tan Ngo Law, our core values are the cornerstone of our practice. We recognize the immense trust our clients place in us, often during the most difficult times in their lives, and we are honored to offer our assistance.
