Albuquerque Brain Injury Attorneys

A traumatic brain injury (TBI) can happen in an instant, but its effects can last a lifetime. Imagine a father who can no longer play catch with his children, a college student struggling to remember lecture material, or a grandmother who finds it challenging to recognize her loved ones. These are the real faces of brain injury victims in Albuquerque and across the nation.

Brain injuries don’t discriminate. They can affect anyone – from a construction worker falling from scaffolding to a teenager involved in a car accident, or even a child injured during a sports game. The consequences ripple through families, workplaces, and communities, often leading to:

  • Cognitive difficulties, such as memory loss and concentration problems

  • Physical impairments, including paralysis or loss of balance

  • Emotional changes, like depression or personality shifts

  • Financial strain due to medical bills and lost wages

These life-altering injuries are more common than many realize. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 1.7 million TBI cases occur in the United States each year. This staggering statistic underscores the prevalence of brain injuries and the critical need for expert legal representation for victims.

The brain is an exceedingly intricate organ. When the brain suffers trauma, the body’s systems may throw into temporary or permanent disarray. As a result, the repercussions are as serious as you can image. Traumatic brain injuries debilitate, affecting one’s ability to care for oneself or to earn wages to support one’s family. No matter how your injury occurred, the traumatic brain injury lawyers at Glasheen, Valles and Inderman provide you with a free consultation to help you determine if you have a case and if you are possibly entitled to financial compensation.

    Our Team is Here to Help

    Below is a list of some of the most-frequently-asked questions by our clients and prospective clients. If you still have any questions, feel free to contact us.

    • How do I pay for medical expenses?

      The answer to this question often depends upon your specific situation. In an automobile accident with fairly minor injuries, sometimes there is Personal Injury Protection insurance or “PIP” coverage that can help pay for your medical bills.

      Other times your private health insurance will pay your medical bills. Once we settle your case, we may have to reimburse your private health insurance policy for medical expenses.

      In other cases where our clients do not have health insurance, we can arrange medical treatment for our clients using a “letter of protection.” That means that we make an agreement with medical providers that if and when we make a recovery in your personal injury case, then we will pay the medical bills out of the settlement.

      In some cases where our clients are unable to get medical treatment otherwise, our law firm will advance the cost of medical expenses in order to assist our client. Exactly how each medical expense is handled in each case will depend on the facts of each case and the circumstances of any potentially-available forms of insurance payment.

    • How long will my claim take to resolve?

      The time it takes to resolve a personal injury claim depends very much on the type of case. We believe that it is important to prosecute claims as quickly and efficiently as possible. We usually like to have our client finish with their medical treatment so that we can fully and properly evaluate their injuries before we attempt to settle the claim. Sometimes we can assist a client with making advances to cover lost wages or living expenses while the client is waiting for the case to be resolved. Typically, automobile accident cases with fairly minor injuries can be resolved in about six months. More serious accident cases usually take anywhere from six months up to a year and a half or longer.

    • How long do I have to make a claim for personal injuries?

      For personal injury claims the time period to file a claim could be anywhere from one year to four years depending upon the type of claim that you have. Generally, the time limit is two years to file suit in Texas. It is important to get advice from an attorney because the exact time limits can depend upon the specific facts of your case. It is important to hire an attorney soon after an accident. The insurance companies usually respond immediately and so should you. An attorney can help preserve evidence that otherwise may be lost forever.

    • What is my claim worth?

      Personal injury claims are usually resolved by either settlement or by a jury. When a case is settled, it is the client’s decision of whether or not to accept a settlement offer. The lawyer will advise the client as to the potential value of the claim. Lawyers evaluate the potential value of a claim by predicting what a jury would do based on experience with similar claims.A jury can consider all sorts of damages in a personal injury case including medical expenses in the past and in the future, loss of earnings in the past and in the future as a result of the injury, physical pain and mental anguish in the past and in the future, compensation for impairment – that is loss of use, and disfigurement damages. The jury has discretion in awarding the sums. We can give you advice on the value of your claim based on our experience with some of our claims and similar jury results.
