Utah Head Injury Attorneys

Pesonal Injury lawyers in Salt Lake City help clients who have suffered from head and brain injuries

A head injury may be as simple as a bump on the head, or it may involve a more complex traumatic brain injury.  Common causes of head injuries in Salt Lake City include:

Motor vehicle accidents Falls Sports injuries

Work accidents Bicycle accidents Assaults and fights

The damage may be mild or severe, or may appear simple but become more dangerous with time.  Head injuries may include:

• A skull fracture, that may be categorized as follows:
  • A simple linear break
  • A depressed fracture that dents the bone
  • A fracture at the base of the skull

• Bleeding (hemorrhages), that may be acute or develop over time, including bleeding between:
  • The brain and the layer of tissue called the dura mater that may be serious and may require surgery
  • The dura and the bone that has the potential to cause significant damage and often requires immediate surgery
  • The arachnoid layer and the brain that usually just needs to be watched

Head—and particularly  brain injuries—in Salt Lake City can be debilitating and recovery can be physically, mentally, emotionally, and financially exhausting.  If you or someone you love suffers a head injury due to the negligence or action of another, it is important to discuss it with a head injury attorney in Salt Lake City.
