Take Legal Action Truck Accident Head Injury

· Jan 31, 2012 ·

The average large truck used for commercial purposes weighs about 80,000 pounds. When involved in an accident, this weight can lead to devastating damage and severe injuries for those involved. One type of injury that is common in a truck accident is a head injury. If you or a family member has sustained a head injury from a truck accident, it’s time that you took legal action. This is because many of the common causes of truck accidents stem from the trucker him- or herself, such as fatigued or distracted driving.

Types of Truck Accident Head Injury

There are many kinds of cranial injuries, some of them more traumatic than others. Head injuries are classified as one of the four types listed below.

  • Closed injury
  • Open injury
  • Concussion
  • Scalp wound

In a closed injury, there is no penetration of the skull; rather, the brain may sustain damage, resulting in swelling and other complications. In an open head injury, the skull has been penetrated. A concussion is one of the most common head injury types. It occurs when the head is hit with force. A concussion can be very severe or very minor. The last type of head injury, a scalp wound, refers to scalp injuries like cuts, scrapes, bruising, tissue damage, etc.

A Legal Claim for a Truck Accident Head Injury

Pursuing a legal claim for a truck accident head injury can result in much-needed financial assistance. In addition to costs of medical care and treatment, semi-truck crash claims can also help to recover damages for other loss types, like pain and suffering, loss of companionship, and more. If the victim needs long-term care or assistance as a result of the brain injury, a claim can also help to pay for this.

In the event that a truck accident leads to a head injury, a truck accident attorney can do the following for you.
