Traumatic brain injury
refers to any injury that is caused by a trauma to the
head. Traumatic brain injuries can occur from almost

involve the facial area. Brain trauma occurs when the
brain is slammed back and forth against the skull, due
to an external force (i.e. a car crash).
Traumatic brain
injuries often leave the victim with significant brain
damage. Brain damage can affect the victim’s
physical function, social skills, as well as the ability
to think and comprehend. Some of the physical
functions that can be lost are the ability to pay
attention and bladder and bowel problems.

entity’s negligence, then that entity may be liable for
the injury.
