Brain Injury
Workers’ Compensation

If you or a loved one suffered a brain injury in a work-related accident, you may be able to secure medical and disability benefits through workers’ compensation. At Malman Law, we have decades of experience representing work injury victims and their families throughout Chicagoland.

Brain injuries can happen in an instant, and can change victims’ lives forever. From vehicle collisions to company softball games, almost any situation can put workers at risk for sudden, life-changing brain injuries. If you or a loved one has suffered a brain injury in a work-related accident, the lawyers at Malman Law are here to help you fight for just compensation.

While workers’ compensation is a “no-fault” system, employers and their insurance companies often make it extremely difficult for injured workers to receive the benefits to which they are legally entitled. This is especially true with regard to significant injuries – such as traumatic brain injuries – that can lead to a lifetime of medical expenses and inability to work. At Malman Law, we are committed to ensuring that work injury victims receive maximum compensation to cover their losses. If you or a loved one has been injured at work, we invite you to schedule a free consultation to learn more about your legal rights.

About Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI)

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are injuries that result from sudden impacts to the brain. These impacts can range from various types of “closed” brain injuries (where the brain collides with the skull), to “open” brain injuries that involve objects piercing the skull and entering the brain.

Treatment, prognosis, and recovery for TBI vary greatly depending on the specific type of injury. For example, while concussions and whiplash can heal with rest, penetrating injuries from vehicle collisions and other major accidents can require extensive surgery and rehabilitation.

Common Work-Related Brain Injuries

Some of the most common forms of work-related brain injuries include the following. Please note that this list is not exhaustive of the types of injuries that may entitle you to financial compensation.
