TBI: Not Everyone Recovers

Описание: “Think of the brain like a city’s power grid. After a storm, most lights come back on quickly, but in some neighborhoods, the transformers are fried. The wiring’s damaged, the lights may never work the same again.” – Tom Crosley

Welcome to Winning The TBI Case hosted by trial lawyer Tom Crosley. Listen each week as Tom provides practical, powerful guidance for litigating traumatic brain injury cases. This podcast is meant for litigation attorneys who are ready to explore the essentials of TBI cases to confidently represent clients who have suffered traumatic brain injuries.

From Defense Mantras to Scientific Truth

The defense always starts with the same worn line: “Most people recover from mild TBI in just a few weeks.” While that may be true for most, it’s not the whole story. A significant minority never recover at all, and those are the clients who end up in our courtrooms. In this episode, Tom shares game-changing research: Longitudinal Study of Post-concussion Syndrome: Not Everyone Recovers.

This groundbreaking study is the peer-reviewed science that proves what we’ve known all along. Learn about the critical three month threshold where the odds flip, why the ‘miserable minority’ concept is your strongest weapon, and how to use powerful analogies to make the invisible injury visible to juries.
