Diffuse axonal injuries are common traumatic brain injuries that occur when the head rapidly accelerates or decelerates, with the brain moving faster than the skull. This damages the axons, which send neural signals within the brain, impairing the brain’s ability to communicate. Diffuse axonal brain injuries often result in coma and a permanent vegetative state. Even those who regain consciousness typically suffer from severe, lifetime impairments. If a loved one suffered a TBI such as a diffuse axonal injury as a result of another person’s negligence, the attorneys at the Kiley Law Group are here to help you recover the financial security you and your family need to move forward.
