Any accident that causes you to strike your head against a hard object—or that results in a penetrating head injury—can impact your life.
The following types of accidents are a few examples of the more common causes of head injuries:
Car accidents: From speeding to a drunk driver, a dangerous driver can strike another driver, a motorcyclist, a bicyclist, or a pedestrian
Semi-truck accidents: Large trucks with drowsy or distracted drivers are dangerous for other drivers
Slip and fall accidents: Wet floors, stairs with no handrail, and poor lighting can cause a business patron to slip and fall
Product liability: A malfunctioning product can cause a serious accident resulting in a head injury
If you are uncertain if your accident and resulting head injury qualify for possible compensation, a lawyer can help you.
