Traumatic Brain Injury Can Be Caused By Falls, Auto Crashes, and Assaults says California Personal Injury Lawyer Steven Peck

The majority of  Traumatic Brain Injury also known as TBIs are concussions or other mild forms of brain injury from which people fully recover. However, even with concussion, people with brain injury can suffer from a variety of symptoms such as headaches, sleep disruption, memory loss or depression

“Brain injuries do not discriminate, and can happen to any one of us anywhere at any time,” says California Traumatic Brain Injury Attorney Steven Peck.

TBI as a serious public health problem in California and all over the United States. In California, approximately 35,000 people are admitted to the hospital each year with a TBI. Approximately 1.7 million Americans suffer a brain injury every year.

Falls are the leading cause of brain injury, followed by motor vehicle crashes, events where someone is struck by or against an object and assaults. Statistics show children under age four, adolescents aged 15 to 19 years and adults aged 65 years and older are most likely to sustain a TBI. In every age group, TBI rates are higher for males than females.
