Pursuing Justice with a passion--
making a difference in lives.
What set's us apart from most personal injury law firms is our commitment and passion to protect the rights of brain injury victims.-- De Caro & Kaplen, LLP Provides Compassionate Legal Representation to the Victims of Negligence and Their Families
Unfortunately, many people have not and will not receive adequate compensation for their head injury and traumatic brain injury because they did not seek proper legal representation in a timely manner. Brain injury attorneys representing a person and their family for a head injury or a traumatic brain injury should possess knowledge, education and experience in this very specialized area of personal injury litigation while also having a compassionate outlook on the situation.
Since the results of your brain trauma lawsuit will have an important and long term impact upon the quality of your life, it is important to determine the best lawyer to represent you in your head injury case.
Some things to ask any brain injury lawyer before retaining them for your head trauma case:
Q: How many traumatic brain injury cases similar to mine have you been involved with as the principal attorney and lawyer over the past three years?
Q: What percentage of your law practice is devoted to representing persons with a traumatic brain injury or traumatic head injury?
Q: Will you be the attorney handling my brain injury case or will you be referring it to another lawyer or law firm?
Q: What have been your results in representing persons with brain injury cases similar to mine?
Q: Have you written and published any articles on traumatic brain injury, traumatic head injury, concussion, coma, and the legal representation of brain damage victims?
Q: Have you lectured to any bar associations, brain injury associations or other groups about the effective representation of persons who have suffered traumatic brain injury?
Q: Do you actively participate in your state's brain injury association and in the Brain Injury Association of America?
Q: Do you regularly attend conferences and read textbooks and articles about the effects of traumatic brain injury, head injury, skull fractures, brain bleeding including subdural and epidural hemorrhage, concussion and coma?
Q: Have you received any professional honors and awards concerning your representation of persons with a brain injury and head injury?
Q: Does your firm have the financial resources to advance the necessary funds (sometimes in excess of $50,000!) to properly prosecute my case, if necessary?
