What is the average TBI settlement from a car accident?

TBI settlements vary dramatically. Mild concussions may settle for $50,000 to $150,000, while moderate TBI ranges from $200,000 to $1 million. Severe TBI with permanent impairment often exceeds $1 million and can reach into the tens of millions.

How do you prove a traumatic brain injury in a car accident case?

TBI is proven through medical records, neuroimaging (CT, MRI), neuropsychological testing, and expert testimony. Documenting pre and post-accident cognitive function through school records, work evaluations, and witness testimony strengthens your case.
