Brain Injury Leading Cause of Injury and Death in Younger Adults
This is the year when major league sports, especially hockey, are finally beginning to face the reality of brain injury caused by these sports. Brain injuries are acquired not only in sports, but in accidents of every kind including motor vehicle accidents, and in Newfoundland, in moose vehicle collisions. It is the leading cause of injury and death in adults age 44 or under.
One of the most challenging types of personal injury cases is the brain injury case. Anyone who thinks that they may have a claim for financial compensation due to being injured by the fault of someone else, should consult an experienced personal injury lawyer with a track record of successfully handling these difficult claims. Many of the class members of the moose vehicle class action for which we at Ches Crosbie Barristers are class counsel, have acquired brain injuries.
For those who wish to learn more about acquired brain injury, I have made available a presentation by Harry Zarins, Executive Director of the Brain Injury Association of Canada and a YouTube link to some very good animated resources.
