What's at Stake
We're sorry this happened. A brain injury can change memory, mood, focus and personality, often in ways that don't show on an X-ray. Insurance companies count on that. Here's what you're up against.
If you look fine, the adjuster will say you are. Without the right imaging and testing, real cognitive damage gets dismissed.
Headaches, memory problems, depression and personality changes can surface weeks or months after the injury. Settle early and they're never paid for.
You may be sent to a doctor the insurance company chose, whose report says your symptoms are exaggerated or were there before.
Most Florida injury claims must be filed within two years. Proving a brain injury takes time, so waiting leaves less of it.
Let us handle the insurance company.
Alexandra Tosado · Founding Attorney
You shouldn't have to prove your own injury to an insurance company while you recover. That's our job.
Why You Need a Lawyer
Traumatic brain injuries are among the most misunderstood injuries in the law. Many people with a concussion or TBI walk out of the emergency room with a normal CT scan, then struggle for months with headaches, light sensitivity, memory lapses, slowed thinking, irritability and trouble at work. Families often notice the changes first.
Insurers use that gap. They argue your symptoms are exaggerated, emotional or pre-existing, and they push a quick settlement before the long-term picture is clear. Without an attorney who knows how to prove a brain injury, people settle for a fraction of what it will cost them.
When you hire ANT Law Firm, our Orlando brain injury lawyers gather the emergency records, Glasgow Coma Scale scores and imaging, and work with your neurologist and, when needed, a neuropsychologist to measure what changed. We talk to the people who knew you before the injury. And we prepare your case for a jury, because that's what makes insurers take an “invisible” injury seriously. Brain injuries are one of the catastrophic injury cases we handle, and they often happen alongside spinal cord injuries.
Common Causes
Brain injuries come from crashes, falls and job-site accidents. If someone else's negligence caused yours, our Orlando brain injury attorneys can help.
Sudden impact can injure the brain even when your head never hits anything.
The force of a commercial truck crash often causes severe brain injuries.
Cyclists hit by cars face serious head injuries on Orlando roads.
Falls from ladders, scaffolds and roofs on construction sites.
Step-by-Step
Brain injury symptoms can take time to appear. These steps protect your health and your claim, even if you feel mostly fine.
Worried about a head injury?
Get checked even if you feel fine — brain injury symptoms can show up days later. Then talk to an attorney before you talk to any insurer. It's free.

We Try Cases
Insurers bet that a brain injury is too hard to prove in front of a jury. Here's what happens when they guess wrong.

A brain injury case is won with medical evidence and the people who knew you before. Here's what happens behind the scenes once you hire us.
Compensation
Brain injuries can be among the most expensive injuries over a lifetime. Florida law lets you recover the full impact, not just the bills you've received so far.
Past and future: emergency care, neurosurgery, hospitalization, medication and monitoring.
Speech, occupational and cognitive therapy and neuropsychological treatment.
Paychecks you missed and the career a brain injury may have changed for good.
Home health aides, supervision and the care family members provide.
Headaches, depression, anxiety, personality changes and emotional distress.
Activities, independence and relationships the injury has taken away.
A projection of every future need, from therapy to housing, over your lifetime.
The impact of the injury on your marriage and family life.

Get My Free Case ReviewFlorida Law
Florida's injury rules changed in March 2023. Here's what matters most when the injury is to your brain.
Stepping outside no-fault. After a car crash, your own PIP coverage pays first. To claim pain and suffering from the at-fault driver, Florida Statute § 627.737 requires a permanent injury, a significant and permanent loss of an important bodily function, significant and permanent scarring, or death. Many brain injuries meet that threshold, but it has to be proven with medical opinions, which is why documentation matters so much.
Modified comparative fault. Since 2023, your recovery is reduced by your share of the blame, and if you're found more than 50% at fault in most negligence cases, you recover nothing. Defendants try to shift blame onto the injured person. Evidence is how we push back.
No cap on most damages. Florida doesn't cap compensatory damages, including pain and suffering, in most injury cases. A jury's verdict can cover the full lifetime cost of a brain injury if it's proven. Claims against government agencies have their own limits.
Children's brain injuries. A child's brain is still developing, so an injury that seems mild can affect school, behavior and independence years later. We work with pediatric specialists to project that impact. Don't assume a child's claim can wait until they turn 18; in most cases, the same deadlines apply.

Straight Answers
Symptoms can be obvious or subtle and may not appear for hours or days. Warning signs include a headache that gets worse, nausea or vomiting, confusion, slurred speech, dizziness, blurred vision, ringing in the ears, sensitivity to light or sound, trouble concentrating or remembering, mood swings, sleep problems and any loss of consciousness, even briefly. Seizures, clear fluid from the nose or ears, unequal pupils, weakness or numbness, and deep confusion are signs of a severe injury. Get emergency care right away if you or a loved one shows any of these signs.
With thorough medical documentation and the people who know you. That can include CT and MRI results and, when appropriate, advanced imaging such as diffusion tensor imaging (DTI); Glasgow Coma Scale scores from the emergency room; neuropsychological testing that measures memory, processing speed and other skills; opinions from your treating neurologist; and before-and-after accounts from family, friends, co-workers and teachers. Work and school records can show the change too. When an insurer says you look fine, that evidence shows otherwise.
Doctors generally classify a mild TBI, including a concussion, as a brief change in consciousness, such as confusion or loss of consciousness for less than 30 minutes. Despite the name, mild TBI can cause post-concussion symptoms that last months or longer. Moderate TBI involves loss of consciousness from 30 minutes to 24 hours. Severe TBI involves unconsciousness for more than 24 hours, often requires surgery and usually causes lasting deficits. Severity affects the value of a claim, but even a mild TBI can support significant compensation when symptoms persist and affect your work and life.
It depends on how severe the injury is, the cost of past and future care, how it affects your ability to work, your age, who was at fault and how much insurance is available. Florida doesn't cap compensatory damages in most injury cases, so a verdict can cover the full lifetime cost of a proven brain injury. We work with your doctors and, when needed, life care planners and economists to calculate that cost. We'll give you an honest assessment during a free review; be wary of anyone who quotes a number before seeing your records.
A child's brain is still developing. Young brains can sometimes recover remarkably, but an injury can also disrupt development in ways that only show up years later, in school, behavior, social skills and independence. That makes children's brain injury cases complex. We work with pediatric specialists who can project the long-term impact on education, career and independence, so the claim covers the years ahead and not just the hospital stay.
That's the most common tactic in brain injury cases. Because you may look healthy, insurers argue your symptoms are exaggerated, emotional or pre-existing, and they may send you to a doctor of their choosing. We answer with evidence: imaging, neuropsychological testing, your treating doctors' opinions and testimony from the people who see the difference every day. And we prepare the case for a jury, which is what makes insurers reconsider.
For most injuries on or after March 24, 2023, you have two years from the date of the injury to file a negligence lawsuit under Florida Statutes § 95.11. Earlier injuries generally had four years. The deadline usually runs from the date of the accident, not the date symptoms appeared, and a child's claim generally isn't paused until age 18. Claims against government agencies and medical malpractice claims have special rules. Because brain injury cases take time to document, call our Orlando brain injury attorneys at (407) 777-8888 as soon as you can.
Brain injury cases are among the most complex injury cases. You need an attorney who understands the medicine, knows how to use imaging and neuropsychological testing, works with the right medical witnesses and can explain an invisible injury to a jury. An attorney who isn't prepared to do that may settle your case for far less than it's worth. Our Orlando brain injury attorneys build every brain injury case for trial from the first day.
