injury victims and their families.

OVER A BILLION DOLLARS IN SETTLEMENTS & VERDICTS


Congratulations to our founder of the Brain Injury Law Center and the managing
partner of the 71-year-old Smith Law Center for your induction into the Virginia
Lawyers Hall of Fame. Thank you for pioneering the art of proving the “invisible
injury” and mastering demonstrative evidence.


THE SILENT INJURY

Brain injuries are devastating, life-changing and often not obvious to the
casual observer. That is why traumatic brain injuries are sometimes described as
“invisible injuries” and a “silent epidemic.”

If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury, you understand the
devastating emotional and financial impact it can have on a family. In some
cases, a recovery takes a lifetime not only for the person injured, but for
those who love them.

We founded the Brain Injury Law Center to help people like you. We are brain
injury lawyers dedicated to representing victims, survivors and their
families. We build strong cases seeking compensation for brain injury sufferers
when a person, company or any other entity can be held liable for what has
happened. We can’t undo an injury, but time and time again we have been
successful in obtaining large settlements and verdicts to ease the financial
burden our clients face.

Our founder and director, Stephen M. Smith, is an internationally recognized
expert in traumatic brain injury litigation, with nearly five decades of
experience with brain injury cases. He handles lawsuits across the U.S. and the
world and is often sought out by other attorneys for assistance.

Contact us today by calling (757) 821-5423 or filling out the form on this
page to speak with an attorney about how to seek compensation for a brain
injury. All consultations are free and without obligation. 


SILENT NO MORE




BREAKING THE SILENCE

Read our eBook!
A cloud of silence has hung above the subject of brain injuries for far too
long.



For generations, they were suffered on the battlefield, the gridiron or the
Little League diamond. They didn’t always look like much. They happened on the
playground, in the backyard or at the workplace. And we said nothing.

The athlete returned to the field. The employee got back to work. And the
soldier, bearing wounds that no one could see, returned home from the
battlefield with an injury that went untreated.

We now know that seemingly minor brain trauma can have major implications in the
long run. And people have begun to talk.

In our first eBook, Breaking the Silence, we speak with brain injury survivors
about the often astonishing paths their lives have taken since their
injury. They aren’t keeping quiet about their recovery. And they shouldn’t.

It’s time for us to listen to what they have to say. It’s time to break the
silence. Thanks to brave survivors like these, the struggles of brain injury
victims remain in the shadows no longer.

And neither do their triumphs.


TRAUMA MAY SEEM MINOR

The brain is just as delicate as it is vital. Even something that initially
seems like a minor injury can prove life-changing if certain portions of the
brain are damaged.

This can happen in an automobile accident, while playing sports, after slipping
and falling or in any number of other scenarios. Certain medical ailments may
cause a critical loss of bloodflow to the brain, resulting in permanent damage.

Symptoms of a traumatic brain injury may include:

 * Headache
 * Nausea
 * Confusion or other cognitive problems
 * Change in personality
 * Depression
 * Irritability
 * Severe vision problems
 * Other emotional and behavioral problems


REACH OUT

If you or a loved one has suffered a serious brain injury, we understand that
you never wanted to be in this situation. However, just as you need medical
experts to get the right care, you may need an attorney who understands the laws
surrounding brain injuries to aid in your recovery as well. We lecture on this
subject nationwide.

If there is potential compensation available that could ease your financial
burden and aid in your recovery, you need to seek it. Contact the Brain Injury
Law Center today at (757) 821-5423 or by using the form on this page for a free,
no-obligation consultation to discuss your case.

WHAT IS THE PROGNOSIS AFTER A DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY?

Brain injuries, including diffuse axonal injuries, can be devastating. An
attorney can help you pursue meaningful compensation. Diffuse axonal injuries
(DAIs) are a very specific type of traumatic brain injury. DAIs are
characterized by damage to the brain’s axons – the nerve fibers responsible for
transmitting electrical impulses between neurons. DAIs involve extensive damage
