New Jersey Brain & Head Injury Lawyer

Car accidents are a leading cause of head and brain injuries. Brain injury can occur when the head has been struck, usually by striking an object such as a windshield. Sometimes the brain undergoes a sudden acceleration/deceleration movement (as in a whiplash injury) without direct external trauma to the head. Many brain injuries are the result of bruising, bleeding, twisting or tearing of brain tissue. Damage to the brain may occur at the time of the accident, or develop over time as tissues swell and bleed within the head.
