Traumatic Brain Injury Attorneys in Durham NC

Experience Makes a Difference in Traumatic Brain Injury Cases

The human brain is often injured during the trauma of a collision in ways that are not immediately apparent, but can dramatically alter a person’s life. Traumatic brain injury is often the result of what is known as a Closed Head Injury, in which there are no external signs of injury, yet the axonal nerves within the brain are stretched and torn, altering cognitive and emotional behavior.  The signs and symptoms of such an injury are often noticed only by close family members that realize that their loved one is simply not the same. These differences can include difficulty finding the right word to use, a hesitancy in speaking, memory difficulties, increased emotional fluctuation, and mood swings. When such an injury is suspected, the person’s physician should be told of these observations so that the person may be assessed by an appropriate expert. These experts are typically either a neuropsychiatrist or neuropsychologist.  Such medical experts are trained at testing for and identifying cognitive deficits caused by microscopic injury to vital brain tissue.

If you or a family member have suffered a head injury that has forever changed your life, you will need a team of lawyers that know what is required in a case that may determine whether a disabled person has the funds necessary to take care of their special needs, or becomes dependent upon social security or on other family members.

Since 1980, our Durham Law Firm has been helping traumatic brain injury victims receive the justice they deserve.

Our team of lawyers have experience in working with the various types of expert witnesses needed in traumatic brain injury cases. Expert witnesses help educate a jury or the insurance company about closed head injury, brain injury, and how our client has been impacted by that injury. We often use neuropsychologist, neuropsychiatrist, and neurologists as expert witnesses to help prove these injuries.

The insurance company that will want to settle with you knows what you are entitled to – but you do not. You need someone on your side to make sure that you get what you have a right to get.  We will protect that right.

An injured person that has suffered a head injury is faced with many problems, including mounting medical bills, lost wages, disability, losing your ability to do things that once came easily. The law gives you rights and we fight to protect those rights. You must have a team capable of presenting the evidence necessary to help a jury understand the extent of the life changing injuries and the economic losses caused by those injuries. As attorneys who understand the law, the North Carolina court system and how to try your case in a court room, we can fight for you and help you recover what you are entitled to.

The law allows juries or judges to award compensation for many types of losses that result from injuries. These awards may include present and future medical expenses, partial or total disability, past and future lost wages, compensation for scarring, mental and physical suffering, property damage, and other losses that are recognized by law. You have the right to know what you are entitled to and have someone fight to help you get it.

Our attorneys have been recognized for the highest professional legal standards and ethics in the fields of Personal Injury and Civil Trial Practice by the Martindale-Hubbell Bar Register of Preeminent Attorneys.

In any injury case, we will meet with you without charge to determine the strength of your case and whether we are able to help you. If we accept your case, we will represent you on a contingency fee basis. This means that we are paid only if we recover money for you. Contact our firm immediately for assistance with your case.

Client Testimonials

“I came to Glenn, Mills, Fisher, and Mahoney with an extremely difficult legal dilemma that seemed impossible to resolve fairly and favorably. I was completely floored–and relieved beyond belief–when Carlos Mahoney called the next day to let me know that he had found a way out of the morass. It was a brilliant solution. Mahoney and his assistant made a truly awful situation much easier to deal with because of the integrity which they brought to the work. They answered all my questions promptly. They never dropped the ball, and were always up to date on the issues when I called, which was no small feat, since the matter had many moving parts and extended over several years. Through it all, Mahoney offered truly wise counsel, making sure that my emotions did not get in the way of my interests. He also guided the case toward a conclusion that was far better than I ever hoped or imagined. I cannot recommend the firm more highly.”

- Laura Edwards

Mr. Mahoney was recommended to me by another attorney for his expertise in insurance coverage. My case had several layers of complexity and Mr. Mahoney was able to navigate through them all in a strategic and succinct manner. His staff is nice and responsive and his fees are reasonable. I would highly recommend his services.

- Matej Polomsky

Could not be more pleased with my results. Carlos did an outstanding job in presenting all the facts in my case. He is held in high regards among his peers, and I was able to witness first hand why. Very thorough, with no wasted time. A truly class act. Highly recommend his services.
