Types of Recoverable Compensation to Pursue in Traumatic Brain Injury Claims
No two traumatic brain injuries are the same. The damage, your losses, the circumstances of the accident that led to your TBI—it all adds up to compensation that is unique to your brain injury claim.
Generally, your losses are broken into two categories: economic and non-economic. Economic losses are your objective financial costs while non-economic losses are subjective and must have a dollar amount attributed.
Economic Losses
Objective damages may include:
- All current and future medical costs in and out of the hospital
- Property repair or replacement
- Out-of-pocket expenses, such as help with childcare or daily household chores
- Temporary or permanent loss of income, earnings, and benefits
Non-Economic Losses
Subjective damages may include:
- Pain and suffering
- Mental anguish, depression, and anxiety
- Loss of quality of life
- Change in relationships with family and friends
Meet with our Kennesaw traumatic brain injury attorneys to identify your losses. It is important that your compensation claim lists all damages before filing, as adding them later can be problematic.

Key Factors That Influence Compensation for Victims of Brain Injuries
Not all factors affecting how much compensation a TBI victim may recover apply to all individuals, but they can include:
- The severity of your injury: mild, moderate, or severe
- The total cost of your economic and non-economic damages
- The type of negligence by the at-fault party
- The evidence supporting the claim of negligence
- The prognosis of your injury

How Our Kennesaw Attorneys Build Strong TBI Cases
If your TBI was caused by another’s negligence, you may be entitled to financial compensation for your losses. Our legal team will take actions necessary for a successful conclusion to your case, but typically, this includes:
- Investigation of the accident to collect evidence of a negligent action. Such evidence may be found in eyewitness statements, police reports, medical records, CCTV footage, and on-site physical inspection.
- Oversight of all communication between the insurance company and legal representatives.
- Preparation and filing of your compensation claim followed by negotiation for a full and fair compensation settlement.
- Filing of a personal injury lawsuit and representation in court as we seek a compensation judgment or verdict for you.
Establishing Negligence in Your Kennesaw Traumatic Brain Injury Case
To seek compensation from the responsible party for your losses, we must prove someone else was negligent and therefore responsible for your traumatic brain injury. Proving negligence means meeting these four elements:
- The defendant had a duty of care to act in a responsible fashion and not cause harm.
- The defendant breached the duty of care by behaving in a negligent fashion.
- The defendant’s breach of duty caused the accident that caused you to suffer a traumatic brain injury.
- The TBI caused you to sustain damages, such as medical care bills and loss of income.
Understanding Georgia’s Modified Comparative Negligence Rule for TBI Cases
A judge may deem you partially responsible for the accident that caused your TBI. If this happens, you may still recover monetary compensation for your losses minus the percentage you are held responsible for.
If you are found to be 50% or more responsible for the accident, you may not recover compensation for your financial losses. Our attorneys will explain this rule of law, if it applies to your case and clarify how it can affect your financial recovery.

The Statute of Limitations Limits Your Time to File a Traumatic Brain Injury Lawsuit
Most personal injury claims reach a negotiated settlement and never go to court. However, if the facts are in dispute or the insurance company is not negotiating in good faith, filing a traumatic brain injury lawsuit may be the only way to recover the compensation you deserve.
Georgia generally allows you two years from the date of your accident to file a personal injury lawsuit, per O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33. If you fail to begin legal action within this time limit, you may not be allowed to seek compensation. Our Kennesaw traumatic brain injury attorneys at Bader Law Injury Lawyers will make you aware of all deadlines pertaining to your case and ensure that they are met.
