Traumatic brain injuries are among the most devastating of injuries. They can end a career or marriage, and do so without changing a client’s external appearance. Yet many lawyers don’t recognize the basic symptoms of a TBI, and others fail to recognize the entire spectrum of symptoms associated with a TBI and its associated conditions. Without understanding the full effect of the injury, and the impact on the client, lawyers cannot obtain a fair outcome in settlement or trial for these clients.
In this presentation, Trial Guides founder and noted brain injury lawyer, Aaron DeShaw, discusses the three main effects of a brain injury, along with 13 associated types of conditions. He also addresses literature citations that demonstrate that TBIs are missed in the ER more often than they are diagnosed, the likelihood that a TBI is permanent, and why a normal neurological examination does not rule out the presence of a TBI. If you handle personal injury cases, you won’t want to miss this comprehensive presentation on handling traumatic brain injury cases.

Much More Than an Overview
"While it's certainly an overview, the amount of material covered in 2 hours in this session with Dr. DeShaw is rather remarkable. His approach to TBI cases is presented in a digestible form, but the slides and citations and pitfalls of which to be aware are all very helpful also. I have many Trialguides books, DVDs and online webinars in my library, and this is among the best (especially for any lawyer who might feel they've possibly missed the value a TBI can lend to a case, and/or the help you can get for a client whose physicians may have failed to appreciate the symptoms potentially attributable to a TBI)."
