While working out at my health club, a piece of weight equipment dislodged and fell heavily on my head and shoulder. Can I sue for damages due to the injury?
The best way to determine if you are entitled to compensation because of someone's carelessness is to consult a knowledgeable lawyer with experience in the field of brain injury litigation who will determine whether or not there is any legal liability and if a lawsuit should be pursued. Not every traumatic brain injury merits a trip to the courts, perhaps because the litigation expenses and the amount of any potential recovery do not make it worth pursuing. In cases where others are at fault, it is critically important to consult a competent attorney early on to protect your legal rights. It is also significant to remember that traumatic brain injuries vary widely among the levels of populations (adult, geriatric, pediatric and adolescent), and the course of recovery is very difficult to predict.
