Traumatic Brain Injury Attorney

Many serious vehicle and recreational accidents can result in severe injuries to the brain which in the worst case can require life-long treatment and care. Traumatic brain injury cases require special experience and skill before a jury in order to obtain maximum compensation. Corona California Personal Injury Attorney Amador L. Corona has a proven track record in handling these complex cases; contact him to discuss the details of your case.

I have personal experience with an adult son who suffered a traumatic brain injury several years ago.

He was crossing an intersection on a bicycle when he was struck by a vehicle traveling 40 mph. In addition to the many broken bones my son suffered, he also incurred a traumatic brain injury.

One of the interesting facts about my son's brain injury is that he suffered no direct blow to his head. In fact, his head was free of any visible injury. However, the jarring of my son's brain within his skull caused many of the electrical pathways that control speech, balance, motor skills, and mental acuity to be severed. My son was in a coma for 45 days, and by the grace of GOD, he woke up. As a result of several years of intense physical therapy, he has been able to regain his ability to walk, talk, and function mentally.

Because of this life experience, I have become very well educated about Traumatic Brain Injuries. I know the medical professionals a patient requires to overcome the deficits caused by a traumatic brain injury. I know the difficulties a client experiences on a daily basis as well as the continued future suffering. I know that treatment for such injuries is expensive and aware of the long term costs of such future care.

As your attorney, I will apply all of this acquired knowledge to insure you are fully compensated for your, or your loved one's, Traumatic Brain Injury.

I will be personally invested in your matter as your lawyer AND as your compassionate advocate.

Texting While Driving Lawyer

Technology increases have lead to even more distractions and inattentive driving. In recent years, most states have enacted cellphone statutes making it illegal to text while driving. This is in response to the rapid rise of accidents, injuries, and deaths caused by texting and driving. Media and researchers have described it as a hazard that is as dangerous as drunk driving.

California laws strictly ban text messaging while driving. In addition, it is illegal to use a cellphone other than with a hands-free device. Like other laws, however, people continue to break them. Despite local and national campaigns to persuade drivers not to text while driving, serious accidents and injuries are still occurring.
