What to Do if You Suspect a Traumatic Brain Injury
When you are in a car crash, slip and fall accident, or other traumatic incident, a brain injury may not be your first consideration. However, even a small blow to the head can cause serious lasting damage. TBI symptoms are easy to overlook in the aftermath of an unexpected accident, but the long-term results can be devastating. Seek medical attention if you experience the following symptoms:
- Dizziness and balance issues
- Trouble concentrating
- Memory problems
- Fatigue or insomnia
- Difficulty controlling emotions
- Slowed reaction time
- Trouble with vision or hearing
- Nausea or vomiting
Prompt medical assistance can mitigate some lasting TBI effects. A doctor can conduct imaging and other diagnostic tests to assess the severity and extent of your brain injury. They can also provide life-saving treatment if you experience complications.
Long-Term Effects of a Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injuries often result in serious disabilities that require long-term assistance. The exact effects of a traumatic brain injury vary widely depending on the area of the brain affected and the injury’s severity. The short- and long-term costs of treating a traumatic brain injury can be debilitating for the victim and their loved ones. We help victims claim compensation for:
- Emergency treatment and critical care
- Surgery and inpatient treatment
- Outpatient procedures and medical transportation
- Physical and mental rehabilitation services
- In-home nursing and domestic care
- Disability accommodations
- Financial support due to lost income
Trantolo & Trantolo, LLC’s compassionate TBI attorneys understand the heavy burden your injuries create. You do not have to face these difficulties on your own. Let our dedicated legal team help you recover compensation for your current and future losses from those responsible for your TBI.

Our wrongful death lawyers are available to discuss how you can recover funeral costs, lost income, and other damages due to your loved one’s untimely passing.
TBI Symptoms Can Make it Harder to Get Compensation

- $7,900,000 for a client whose vehicle was broadsided by a police cruiser, causing permanent, severe brain damage.

Frequently Asked Questions for Hartford TBI Claims
Do TBI Lawyers Work on a Contingency Fee Basis?
We know that the aftermath of a TBI accident is confusing and stressful. Our attorneys can help you understand your rights and explain the legal process during a free legal consultation. We will provide an honest assessment of your case and advice on your best options.
When you decide to hire us, we offer assistance for a contingency fee basis, so you don’t have to worry about paying for legal services up front. The attorneys on your case will recover fees and costs as part of your final settlement or award. If we don’t win your case, you pay nothing for our assistance.
What if I Was Partially at Fault for My Injury?
Connecticut follows a modified comparative negligence rule, outlined in CT Gen. Stat. § 52-572h. This means you can still recover damages if you were less than 51 percent at fault for the accident. However, your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. The other party may try to say you bear most of the responsibility for the incident that caused your brain injury, hoping to reduce or deny your payout altogether.
Determining fault can be complex, so having legal guidance is crucial to ensure you are treated fairly during negotiations or in court.
Do I Need a Lawyer for a Traumatic Brain Injury Case?
TBIs often involve serious, long-term consequences that require detailed medical evidence and expert testimony. Insurance companies may try to minimize payouts, and proving the full impact of a TBI can be challenging. An experienced attorney can handle negotiations, gather strong evidence, and advocate for full and fair compensation so you can focus on recovery.
