What Are the Symptoms of a TBI?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 1.4 million Americans suffer a brain injury each year. Whether by car accidents, truck accidents, or medical negligence, any form of physical trauma to the brain can result in temporary or permanent damage. When the symptoms are extremely severe and long-lasting, it is often considered a TBI.

Any of the following signs may indicate that a brain injury has occurred:

  • Memory loss
  • Persistent headache
  • Nausea
  • Dizziness
  • Changes in mood or behavior
  • Blurred vision

Since brain injuries may not show up right away, it is important to seek medical attention the moment you suspect that one has occurred. Doing so can also strengthen a personal injury claim you may file in the future, as it provides evidence that you did indeed suffer a brain injury.

The Long-Term Impact of a Traumatic Brain Injury

Suffering from a traumatic brain injury can have long-lasting effects on your physical, cognitive, and emotional well-being. It is crucial to understand the potential long-term impact of a TBI and seek the compensation you deserve for your pain and suffering. At Rourke & Blumenthal, our experienced Columbus brain injury attorneys are dedicated to helping victims like you recover the compensation needed to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and ongoing care.

Some long-term effects of a traumatic brain injury may include:

  • Chronic headaches and migraines
  • Memory loss and cognitive impairments
  • Difficulty with speech and language
  • Mood swings and emotional instability
  • Impaired motor skills and coordination
  • Increased risk of developing neurological disorders

    "You NEED attorneys who are experienced in TBI cases."
    Wonderful firm! We have worked with other attorneys in the past and Mike and Tim blew us away. If you have a brain injury in the State of Ohio, you NEED attorneys who are experienced in TBI cases, not just motor vehicle accidents or other personal injury matters. It makes a huge difference having an attorney who understands the medical, emotional, and financial issues a family suffers after a TBI. They are professional, compassionate, and great communicators. I would recommend this office to anyone.

    "Attorney Stoudt is the best lawyer I've ever worked with."
    Attorney Jon Stoudt is the best lawyer I've ever worked with. He did everything he could to help me. From the start, Jon was very responsive and always explained everything in terms I could easily understand. Jon's staff was also kind and responsive. I highly recommend Jon and would use him again in the future. Several months after being done with my case, another lawyer, handling a different part of the case, commented on how well Jon handled my civil suit.

    "Mr. Rourke and his team were extremely compassionate, knowledgeable and friendly"
    From the very beginning and to the very end of a long process, Mr. Rourke and his team were extremely compassionate, knowledgeable and friendly. I found them to be honest and easy to communicate with, day or night, weekday or weekend. Mr. Rourke was always professional but at the same time made you feel important and took as much time that was needed to explain the many steps in this process. Everyone of his team were very respectful and caring of everyone in my family involved in our case. I will have an admiration for Mr. Rourke and his team for the remainder of my life.

    "I will forever be grateful for their help!"
    I suffered physical injuries and a concussion from an auto accident in December of 2020. The team, from receptionist to attorneys, were nothing less than stellar, professional, kind, and hard working. The accident and aftermath were extremely stressful; but the Rourkes, Michael Senior and Michael Junior, helped me navigate the process while I focused on healing. For me, recovery from the accident was the most important part of the process. While I worked on recovering, Rourke and Blumenthal worked on negotiating a fantastic settlement for me. I will forever be grateful for their help!
