Florida Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyers

Preventing Brain Injuries

A brain injury is one of the worst injuries that a person can endure.  These injuries often result in serious physical limitations and other medical complications that can last a lifetime.  While not every accident can be avoided, in many cases, severe injuries to the brain and other parts of the body are caused by the careless and reckless behaviors of others. Thankfully, in these situations, the law provides for the irresponsible parties to be held accountable for their actions.

If you have suffered a TBI or other brain injury in a motor vehicle crash, construction accident or any other tragic event, we can help.  Our Florida traumatic brain injury lawyers understand just how difficult and life-changing these cases can be for victims and their families. We have decades of experiencing helping people who have been seriously harmed in all types of personal injury cases, and we are prepared to handle your case no matter how challenging it may be.   

TBI Prevention Methods

While no one ever expects to suffer an injury as serious as a TBI, there are steps that you can take to help prevent a brain injury from happening.  These steps include:

  • Always buckling your seatbelt in a motor vehicle
  • Placing your child in a car safety seat that is appropriate for his or her age, height and weight
  • Never get behind the wheel of a car after drinking alcohol or taking drugs (including prescription medications that can impact your ability to safely operate a vehicle)
  • Using a helmet when riding a motorcycle
  • Wearing a helmet when bicycling, skateboarding, inline skating, horseback riding or riding an all-terrain vehicle
  • Supervising your children when they are around stairs, playground equipment, and other fall hazards
  • Making sure that shock-absorbing materials, such as mulch or sand, are used in your child’s playground areas
  • Wearing helmets and other proper protective gear when playing team sports
  • Wearing a helmet when rock climbing, bungee jumping or zip lining
  • Using child safety gates at the top and bottom of stairs
  • Removing tripping hazards and installing grab bars and handrails in senior living areas to prevent falls
  • Providing adequate lighting in staircases and walkways

These are just a few of the measures that you can take in your daily life to help reduce the risk of a TBI or other damage to the brain.
