Types of Brain Injury Cases We Handle in Palmdale

At Prestige Law Firm P.C., our attorneys represent victims of traumatic brain injuries caused by a wide range of accidents. No matter how your injury occurred, we are equipped to build a strong case and fight for the compensation you deserve.

Motor Vehicle Accidents

Pedestrian Accidents

Slip & Fall / Premises Liability

Workplace & Construction Accidents

Wrongful Death (TBI-Related)

Motor Vehicle Accidents

Car, truck, motorcycle, and bicycle crashes in Palmdale are among the leading causes of catastrophic injuries, including TBIs in Palmdale.

Whether it’s a high-speed collision on SR-14 or a rider struck on a local road, these accidents often leave victims facing concussions, severe TBIs, and long recoveries.

At Prestige Law Firm P.C., we hold negligent drivers, trucking companies, and insurers accountable while fighting to secure full medical care, lost wages, and long-term compensation.

Pedestrian Accidents

Palmdale has seen hundreds of pedestrians killed or injured in recent years. A pedestrian struck by a car is at high risk of sustaining a traumatic brain injury, and our lawyers pursue maximum recovery.

Slip & Fall / Premises Liability

Falls in stores, restaurants, or apartment complexes can cause serious head injuries. We prove unsafe conditions, such as spills, poor lighting, or faulty railings, led to your accident.

Workplace & Construction Accidents

Construction sites and industrial workplaces are among the leading causes of severe TBIs. We pursue third-party claims in addition to workers’ compensation, ensuring no avenue of recovery is left unexplored.

Wrongful Death (TBI-Related)

Tragically, some brain injuries are fatal. We represent surviving families in wrongful death cases, seeking justice and financial security through the Antelope Valley Courthouse in Lancaster.

What to Do After a Brain Injury in Palmdale?

If you or a loved one has suffered a head injury, the steps you take immediately afterward can make a major difference in both your health and your legal case. Here’s what to do:

Get Medical Care Immediately  

Your health comes first. Visit the Palmdale Regional Medical Center Emergency Department or another nearby hospital without delay.

Even if symptoms seem mild, head injuries can worsen over time. Always keep copies of discharge papers, imaging results, and follow-up instructions.

Report the Incident  

After a brain injury, it’s essential to create an official record of what happened. If the injury occurred in a traffic accident, call the police so they can file an official crash report.

For slip-and-fall accidents or workplace injuries, make sure the property owner, store manager, or your employer completes a formal incident report.
These records serve as critical evidence in proving how the injury occurred and can significantly strengthen your claim.

Document Everything  

Collect as much information as possible: photos or videos of the scene, contact information for witnesses, employer forms, and insurance details. This documentation helps us prove liability and damages.

Call a Local Lawyer Before Speaking to Insurers

Insurance adjusters are trained to protect their company’s bottom line—not your recovery. Speaking with them too soon, especially in recorded statements, can hurt your case.

Our Palmdale brain injury lawyers step in to protect your rights, handle insurers directly, and fight for full compensation.

Don’t leave your case undocumented, official reports protect your rights.

The Legal Process for Brain Injury Claims

Navigating a brain injury claim in Palmdale can feel daunting. At Prestige Law Firm P.C., we break the process into four straightforward stages so you know what to expect at every step.

1. Free Consultation

Your case begins with a no-cost consultation where we listen to your story, review the facts, and explain your rights. We’ll also outline immediate steps to secure medical treatment and protect evidence.

2. Investigation

Our team gathers all the information needed to build your case, police or incident reports, photos, black-box/telemetry data, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions from neurologists or accident reconstruction specialists.

3. Negotiation

We send a demand letter to the at-fault party’s insurer and handle all settlement discussions. Are you dealing with auto insurers, property owners, or workers’ compensation carriers? We fight for a resolution that covers the full extent of your damages.

4. Litigation & Trial

If the insurance company refuses to offer fair compensation, we file suit in the Los Angeles County Superior Court – Antelope Valley (Lancaster). From discovery to courtroom advocacy, we are trial-ready and committed to securing justice, whether through a strong settlement or a jury verdict.

Compensation & Damages You May Recover

A traumatic brain injury doesn’t just affect your health, it impacts every part of your life. California law allows victims to recover financial compensation, known as damages, to help cover both the measurable costs of the injury and the harder-to-define personal toll it takes.
These damages generally fall into three categories: economic, non-economic, and punitive damages.

Economic Damages

Economic damages reimburse you for losses with a clear dollar value. Our attorneys use medical bills, receipts, pay stubs, and expert projections to calculate the full scope of your financial losses, both now and in the future. Common recoverable costs include:

Medical Expenses: Emergency room visits, surgeries, imaging (MRIs, CT scans), rehabilitation, therapy, medications, assistive devices, and ongoing care.
Future Medical Care: Long-term rehab, cognitive therapy, mental health counseling, and home health care when necessary.
Lost incomes : Wages lost during recovery and reduced hours at work.
Loss of future earning capacity: If your TBI prevents you from returning to your career or earning the same income over time.
Home and lifestyle adjustments: Transportation to appointments, home modifications (such as ramps or medical equipment), and caregiving support.

Non-Economic Damages

Non-economic damages compensate you for the life changes that can’t be measured on a bill but are no less real. TBIs often leave lasting emotional and personal consequences that affect victims and their families. These damages may include:

Pain and suffering: Chronic pain, headaches, dizziness, and other physical symptoms caused by the injury.
Emotional distress: Anxiety, depression, PTSD, or personality changes that impact your day-to-day life.
Loss of enjoyment of life: If you can no longer participate in hobbies, sports, or social activities you once enjoyed.
Impact on relationships: Loss of companionship, affection, or support in close personal relationships (also called loss of consortium).

Punitive Damages

In rare cases where the at-fault party acted with extreme recklessness or intentional misconduct, such as a drunk driving crash, California law may award punitive damages. These are not tied to your losses, but are meant to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar conduct in the future.

What Our Client Say About Us

FAQ

How long do I have to file a claim in California?

Most personal-injury lawsuits must be filed within two years of the injury. Government claims have shorter deadlines (often 6 months). Act quickly to protect your rights.

What determines the value of my case?

Liability strength, severity of the TBI, objective medical findings (neuroimaging/testing), treatment needs, wage loss/earning capacity, pain and suffering, and insurance limits.

Will I need to go to court?

Many TBI claims settle, but we prepare every case for trial. Being trial-ready improves negotiation leverage.

How long does a typical case take?

Simple claims can resolve in months; complex TBI litigation can take 12–24 months or more, especially if surgery, prolonged rehab, or contested liability is involved.
