The brain is a powerful organ, but it can be easily damaged or injured if the appropriate safety measures are not taken to protect it. If your brain or your loved one’s brain is put at risk and ultimately injured because of negligence, then you may have reason to bring a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit.

Negligence Can Lead Directly to a Brain Injury
As defined by the American Bar Association, negligence plays out every day, though it does not always result in catastrophic injury. When somebody has a disregard for others’ safety, there can be direct consequences. The damages from accidents caused by negligence may also come at the expense of your health.
According to the Mayo Clinic, traumatic brain injuries are among the potential outcomes of negligence. Some of the circumstances that could lead to a negligence-caused brain injury include:
- A motor vehicle collision
- A workplace accident
- A slip and fall accident
- A trip and fall accident
- A defective product, including but not limited to defective safety products
There are many other scenarios where negligence by one or more parties could directly cause or contribute to a brain injury. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the victim of a brain injury may experience an array of short- and long-term effects, such as:
- Loss of some or all cognitive function
- An inability to perform a job or be employed in any capacity
- An inability to provide financially for dependents
- Physical impairment and other disabilities
