We Answer Questions on Brain Injuries, Spine Injuries and Catastrophic Accidents

Due to the high incidence of serious accidents in and around the Los Angeles area, our law firm, Kottler & Kottler, has frequently been asked to represent clients who suffered brain injuries and spinal cord injuries.

Brain Injury

Frequently there is no visible head injury yet there can be serious brain damage to the person involved in the accident. Unfortunately, traumatic brain injuries, particularly those involving "closed head" impacts, often go undiagnosed in the emergency room and other post-accident medical settings. In many cases, a person with a closed head traumatic brain injury may not even realize at first that they have been injured because a closed head traumatic brain injury often does not have obvious signs.

Brain injuries can cause inability to concentrate and memory problems as well as depression, irritability, hearing or eyesight problems.  They can have devastating lifelong effects on the physical and mental functioning of the survivor and his or her family. At Kottler & Kottler, we make sure you have the resources necessary for the evaluation and diagnosis of closed head injuries.

Spinal Cord Injury

Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) is damage to the spinal cord that results in a loss of function such as mobility or feeling. Traumatic impact as the result of a motor vehicle accident is one of the most frequent causes of spinal cord damage. At Kottler & Kottler, our personal injury attorneys help accident victims and their families understand the details of a spine injury as well as the legal remedies available to take into account future financial and emotional considerations.

If you or a family member has suffered brain injury or spinal cord injuries as a result of an accident or domestic violence, you know first-hand the enormous impact these injuries have on everyday life. Victims can suffer paralysis, loss of memory and depression. Please call our attorneys at 1-800-254-6551 for guidance.
