Brain Injuries
Our Kamloops personal injury firm has been handling brain injury cases for the last thirty years. We are widely regarded as pioneers in brain injury litigation.
Thirty years ago, the impact from brain injuries was not completely understood. Since then, the medical and legal knowledge surrounding the consequences of brain injuries has grown. We stay on top of the latest developments.
Our lawyers have given seminars on brain injury law suits. We were instrumental in the foundation of the Kamloops Brain Injury Association. Our partner, David J. Marr, Q.C., is currently the Association’s president.
Aspects of Traumatic Brain Injuries
Concussion
A concussion may occur when there is trauma to a person’s head. Concussions can have serious consequences. Symptoms may disappear after several weeks, or they may persist, leading to more serious complications.
Sleep Disorders
Following a brain injury, survivors may often have issues with sleep. This may result in daytime fatigue which significantly impacts the survivor’s day to day function. An appointment at a sleep clinic will often identify the nature of the sleep disorder.
