Understanding Brain Injuries
Brain injuries are among the most serious types of trauma that can result from accidents such as car crashes, slip and falls, workplace incidents, or recreational activities. Even a seemingly mild concussion can have lasting effects if not properly treated. Spencer Morgan Law works closely with neurologists, neuropsychologists, and rehabilitation specialists to understand the full impact of your injury and present a detailed picture of your medical and emotional recovery needs.
Common Causes of Brain Injuries
- Car, truck, or motorcycle accidents
- Slip and fall accidents in public or private spaces
- Workplace or construction site incidents
- Sports and recreational injuries
- Boating or watercraft collisions
- Assaults or blunt-force trauma
When negligence or carelessness leads to a traumatic brain injury, our team steps in to hold the responsible party accountable and ensure you receive fair compensation.
Steps to Take After a Head or Brain Injury
- Seek emergency medical attention immediately and follow all doctor’s orders.
- Report the incident to the appropriate authority (police, property manager, employer).
- Take photographs of the scene, if possible, or have someone assist you.
- Keep a journal documenting your symptoms, treatments, and how the injury affects daily life.

Even mild traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can disrupt normal function for months or years. Severe cases may require lifelong medical care and assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long after an accident can brain injury symptoms appear?
Symptoms may appear immediately or develop gradually over days or weeks. Seek medical evaluation as soon as possible, even if you feel fine at first.
What if my brain injury was caused by a fall at a business or property?
You may have a premises liability claim against the property owner or manager if unsafe conditions caused your fall or injury.
How long do I have to file a brain injury claim in Florida?
Florida law generally allows two years from the date of injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Acting quickly helps preserve evidence and witness statements.
Can I file a claim if my loved one suffered a severe or fatal brain injury?
Yes. Families can pursue wrongful death or catastrophic injury claims for medical costs, lost financial support, and emotional losses.
Are brain injuries covered under workers’ compensation?
If your injury occurred at work, you may qualify for workers’ compensation benefits. However, if negligence from a third party contributed, you may also have a personal injury claim.
