Decades of Experience in Brain Injury Litigation
A serious brain injury is a life-altering condition. The consequences can range from memory loss to coma to death.
Sacramento attorney Noël M. Ferris helps people who have suffered brain injuries due to negligence recover financial compensation for damages. Her very first trial involved a person who suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Since that time she has won millions of dollars in financial compensation for people with brain injuries.
If you or a member of your family has suffered a TBI, or a brain injury caused by lack of oxygen to the brain, exposure to toxins, medical malpractice or any other cause, please contact her office at 916-520-3370 or toll-free at 888-351-3970.
Ms. Ferris obtained a $1.8 million verdict in a high-profile brain injury case that received extensive press coverage. A young girl who was having a seizure was taken by ambulance to a hospital. The ambulance attendant gave her morphine instead of Valium. The doctor made additional mistakes and the patient ended up in a coma.
Ms. Ferris frequently handles cases involving concussions and mild traumatic brain injuries sustained in car accidents, falls, assaults and other closed head trauma.
The Challenge of Mild TBI Cases
Signs of brain injury are often subtle and hard to document. The damage to the brain may not show up on CT scans or MRIs. Ms. Ferris is familiar with the signs and symptoms of brain injury. She will refer clients to a neuropsychologist for appropriate testing that can document the extent of the damages. She may also interview people who can testify about the changes they have seen in the injured person since the accident.
Once the extent of damages becomes apparent, Ms. Ferris will work with a certified life care planner to project the lifetime costs of living with the brain injury. Then she will aggressively pursue full compensation for the client's current and future accident-related damages.
