What kinds of compensation can a TBI survivor recover in a lawsuit?
A lawsuit is often the only means of obtaining the compensation needed to cope with traumatic brain injuries. The types of compensation that can be recovered depend on the particular circumstances of each individual but typically include monies for medical expenses (both past and future), rehabilitation costs and attendant care, assistive equipment and technology, home modifications to accommodate disabilities, lost income, lost earning capacity, pain, suffering, emotional distress, disfigurement, and disability.
