OUR BRAIN INJURY LAW FIRM PROVIDES CAREFUL REPRESENTATION FOR PEOPLE WITH TBI
When another party’s negligence results in a brain injury, a Tacoma TBI lawyer can help victims get compensation. Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are some of the most serious types of injury. They leave victims with profound concerns, ranging from loss of function to serious behavior and personality changes. Both victims and their loved ones can feel like returning to normal life is nearly impossible. On top of this, many traumatic brain injury victims suffer serious financial losses, both from mounting medical bills and from their inability to work after their accident.
A brain injury lawyer from Strong Law can help families find hope again as they seek to rebuild their lives after a traumatic brain injury. Our goal is to help you get back to normal without fear of financial repercussions. If you or someone you love has suffered from a traumatic brain injury due to someone else’s negligence, our brain injury law firm in Tacoma is here to ensure that you are properly compensated.
Common Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries
A traumatic brain injury occurs when a serious head injury damages the brain. This can lead to significant personality changes, not to mention problems with handling the demands of daily life. Cognitive and physical disabilities are common as well. According to the CDC, 2.5 million people in the United States will suffer from traumatic brain injuries every year, and around 288,000 of those will require hospitalization. The causes of these injuries vary. Car accidents are a common reason for a TBI. Sometimes athletes, particularly in high-impact sports, will suffer brain injuries on the field or court. Slip-and-fall accidents where someone hits their head can cause these injuries, as can workplace accidents. Negligence is often present in these cases, and when it is, injured parties and their families can file a TBI lawsuit to seek compensation for the injuries and the resulting financial strain.
Our Tacoma Brain Injury Lawyers Explain the Process of Filing a Legal Claim after a TBI
If you or a loved one has suffered a head injury, the first thing to do is to get the right medical care. This not only ensures your physical protection, but it also creates documentation of the extent of your injuries. After getting medical help, reach out to a Tacoma brain injury lawyer. At Strong Law, we will take the time to listen to your account of the accident to help you determine if someone is at fault in the accident. If so, we will begin building your case, performing investigations, and working with insurance providers to make sure you are adequately compensated.

We handle all of these details, so you can focus on healing after your accident. Throughout the process, we will keep you informed about the details, so you know what to expect in the days ahead. Our goal is to fight for the best possible outcome, so you do not have to worry about the financial aftermath of your accident in the days ahead.

“Very professional, and treated me as an equal.”
Just wanted to say thank you to Jed and his team at Strong Law. Not only was I happy with the outcome, but the entire process as a whole. I would definitely recommend this firm to anyone. Thanks again.
“Unbelievable work!”
I had a claim involving my own insurance company. I tried to negotiate with them, and they completely denied my claim – two times. I then hired Strong Law, and the change was instant. The insurance company immediately began negotiating, and Jed was able to secure an unbelievably good settlement. I will never again attempt to take-on an insurance company without Strong Law in my corner. Thank you!”
“I got justice and awesome compensation.”
“I hired Strong Law after my car accident. Jed and his team worked hard on my case. They were professional and compassionate through my surgery and as I recovered, and they were awesome on communication. I got justice and awesome compensation. I would recommend Strong Law to anyone in my situation.”

COMMON QUESTIONS CLIENTS ASK OUR TACOMA TBI LAWYERS
Suffering from a traumatic brain injury can leave you with many questions. Here are some common questions we have heard at Strong Law.
What does it cost to hire a traumatic brain injury lawyer?
Tacoma TBI lawyers are personal injury attorneys, and typically they do not charge until you are awarded damages. The lawyer’s fees will come from your damages. You have enough to worry about financially in the aftermath of your accident, and paying your TBI attorney shouldn’t be added to that list.
How much compensation is available after a traumatic brain injury?
Financial recovery will depend on many factors, including the cost of your medical bills, the impact of your injury on your quality of life, and how much of a disability you have suffered as a result of your TBI. Pain and suffering and punitive damages can also factor into the overall value of your claim. Your TBI attorney will walk you through the potential value of your claim, so you can move forward with the right information.
Why should I seek compensation after a traumatic brain injury?
Traumatic brain injuries don’t always cause visible disabilities, but they can greatly impact an individual’s quality of life. Many people suffer serious personality changes after a TBI. Others lose the ability to function normally and may not be able to continue working. These hidden disabilities hurt families financially, which is why seeking compensation is so vital.
Should I settle my brain injury case?
A settlement is always a possibility in a brain injury claim, but you should never move forward with a settlement without discussing your case with a Tacoma brain injury lawyer. Many cases can be fairly settled outside of court, but you need an attorney to make certain you consider all financial impacts of the injury.

What Is the Value of My Case?
The value of an injury case depends upon many factors related to the extent of your injuries and any other losses associated with your claim. You may have medical bills, lost income, costs associated with pain and suffering, among other possible damages. To learn the possible value of your case, contact the team at Strong Law. In a free case evaluation, we’ll let you know how much your case may be worth.
What Are Your Hours?
Strong Law is open five days a week between 9am and 5pm. In addition, we offer after hours return calls, weekend calls, and online chat.
What Kinds Of Cases Are Personal Injury?
Call us to know for sure, but a good rule of thumb is when an “accident” that happened to you because of the acts of or misdeeds of another party. Examples are: Auto accidents; motorcycle accidents; semi-truck accidents; wrongful death; medical malpractice; slip, trip and fall; boating accidents, faulty equipment, nursing home abuse; and many others.
Will I Be Charged To Consult Or Talk With You?
No, not ever. Strong Law is a contingency personal injury firm offering specialized experience along with access when you need it. Our goal is to gain the best settlement and provide comfort in the process, so easy access to us is part of our best practices.
What Does Contingency Mean?
Contingency in a legal matter means an expense to the client based on the outcome of a future event or circumstance which is possible but cannot be predicted with certainty. Said another way, Strong Law gets paid only if your case settles.
Can You Give Me An Assessment Of My Case?
Absolutely. While we cannot guarantee anything, nor do we imply a settlement, our willingness to take your case (and do it on contingency) is our voice that we feel your case has strong merit. After speaking with you, we can provide a merit assessment over the phone. However, we caution that accepting your case does not promise anything, your outcome is reflected in the law firm you choose.
What Should I Do If I’m Having Problems, Like Their Insurance Company Is Calling Me?
Always secure an attorney first. If you sign up with Strong Law now, you can advise their insurance company that you have representation and give them our name and contact information. From that time forward, they should not be contacting you again; it’s the law. If you do not sign with an attorney, like Strong Law, you will need to speak with them and represent yourself to resolve your injury. We strongly urge against this; insurance companies are skilled at ensuring their best interests over yours.
What Are Common Reasons For Insurance Injury Denials?
Make sure you receive medical treatment as soon as possible after an accident, otherwise insurance may argue your pain is from an unrelated incident.Insurance companies will be going out of their way to find some proof that the accident was your fault. Don’t be intimidated.If you have preexisting medical conditions that make you more likely to suffer an injury, it is not uncommon for insurance agencies to deny claims based on this.
How Long Does A Case Take To Settle?
It depends on many factors like medical care, future needs, evidence, proof of liability, and many others. Some cases take months while others can last a couple years. Ultimately, our goal is to represent you and what is going to be best for you in the long run.
Why Can Cases Last Years?
Because the law dictates it. There are many layers to make sure the insurance companies treat you with optimal care. For example, there will be time spent for medical treatments you might need. There is time to gather the needed medical reports and discover any long term impacts this injury will have on your life today and into the future. There is time for the other side to review our demands, research, and respond as well. It can feel like a long time, but we follow the law and strategize for the best benefit to you. We are with you the whole time.
