• Obtain any evidence needed to prove liability, including photo or video surveillance of the incident, statements from eyewitnesses, accident reports, and more.
• Work with trusted brain injury experts to fully evaluate the impacts that a victim is expected to experience in the short- and long-term.
• Work with economic experts to properly calculate the total losses a victim is expected to experience.
• Negotiate with every party involved to reach a fair settlement for their client.

Understanding Coup & Countercoup Brain Injuries

Coup and countercoup brain injuries are 2 separate types of injuries:

• Coup brain injuries affect the brain directly under the point of impact.
• Countercoup brain injuries affect the opposite side of the brain from where the impact occurred.

Coup-countercoup brain injuries are those that affect the brain right under the impact site as well as on the opposite side from where the impact occurred at the same time. This is the most severe of the coup and countercoup brain injuries.

These injuries occur in a variety of ways, including:

• car accidents
• violent attacks
• sports injuries
• fall incidents
