Dealing With Depression After Accidents & Injuries - Los Angeles Personal Injury Attorney
Santa, Monica California, Law Firm
Depression is a very serious affliction that can affect victims of traumatic brain injury (TBI), other serious injury and the family members forced to cope with such an injury. Sometimes depression is physically related to a brain injury and other times it manifests itself as a response to the trauma the victim has endured. At Bailey & Partners, we are experienced in fighting for victims’ rights in depression and brain injury cases.
When you or someone you love suffers depression as the result of a serious brain injury or other type of injury, our attorneys will represent you in negotiation or litigation, if that becomes necessary. Contact us for a consultation or case evaluation.
Diagnosis in Depression and Brain Injury Cases
Many victims suffer serious brain injury and their symptoms may go unnoticed or undiagnosed for months. If you or someone you love has been involved in a serious accident or suffered a traumatic brain injury, you may also feel that the injury has affected your moods or caused depression. Our attorneys will investigate your case, working with professionals, doctors, and other experts with experience in the diagnosis of brain injury and depression.
Depression After a Catastrophic or Permanent Injury
Depression after suffering an immobilizing spine injury such as quadriplegia or paraplegia is common. Victims are forced to deal with an entirely new set of emotional difficulties including an inability to work or care for themselves. When you or someone you love suffers depression after a serious accident, you may be able to recover financial compensation and obtain the treatment that you need.
Family Members and Depression After an Accident
Victims of serious spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury or paralysis may also suffer the psychological effects of depression. Many victims suffer the loss of consortium, loss of care, comfort or companionship after a spouse or loved one is permanently disabled or suffers a brain injury. Our attorneys will help you pursue every avenue of recovery in your case.
