Brain injuries, even relatively minor ones, can have serious, long lasting impacts on a person’s life. Among the most common forms of brain injury are concussions. While one of these difficult-to-diagnose injuries is unlikely to put a person’s life at risk, multiple concussions, over the long term or in quick succession, can have dire consequences. If you have experienced a concussion due to the actions of another party, contact Neinstein Personal Injury Lawyers today to schedule a free, no-obligation consultation with an experienced concussion lawyer.
Book Free ConsultationA concussion is a variety of traumatic brain injury, or TBI, caused by an impact to the head or blow to the body that causes the head and brain to rock violently back and forth. These events can cause the brain to bounce or twist within the skull, which can prompt chemical changes and/or stretching or damaging of brain cells. Concussions are most commonly associated with sports – the Province of Ontario has laws aimed specifically at reducing concussions in youth sports, and professional sports leagues have taken significant steps to better protect their athletes. But a person can suffer a concussion anywhere, including in a motor vehicle accident or a slip and fall.
Because concussions are generally not life-threatening, they are sometimes referred to as “mild” traumatic brain injuries. However, just because a concussion victim is unlikely to die from their injuries doesn’t mean they shouldn’t contact an experienced concussion lawyer. Concussions can cause memory loss, severe headaches, nausea and vomiting, balance problems, discomfort caused by light or noise, concentration issues, and even mood, behaviour, or personality changes. Repeated concussions over a long period of time can cause significant behaviour disorders; multiple concussions over a short period can result in traumatic brain injury and can even cause death.

Concussions are generally considered “mild” traumatic brain injuries, meaning a single concussion is unlikely to have the same, significant impact that a serious traumatic brain injury might. However, repeated concussions can have devastating impacts.

2020 was a difficult year for most, but during these unprecedented times, we came out stronger together.
When people are injured, most often they are unable to work and during these times, cash flow can become an enormous burden on the victim and their families. We recognize that our clients are suffering and are under enormous financial stress.
That is why we use the contingency fee arrangement. Under this arrangement, the client is not required to pay any fees or expenses unless the case is successful. If the client does not recover any monies from the lawsuit, there will be no legal fees.
Our lawyers have been representing seriously injured accident victims for more than 50 years. With experience in all areas of Ontario personal injury and medical malpractice law, our goal is to ensure that Ontario's most vulnerable residents get the representation they deserve.
