Symptoms of a TBI can range from mild to severe. A person with a mild TBI, for example, may only blackout for a few seconds (lose consciousness) or even remain conscious.
Symptoms of a mild to moderate TBI include:
• headache
• confusion
• lightheadedness
• dizziness
• blurred vision
• bad taste in the mouth
• ringing in the ears
• sleep pattern changes
• mood changes
• problems with memory, attention, concentration, and thinking
Someone with a severe TBI may show the same symptoms as someone with a mild TBI, but may also suffer from:
• ongoing headaches
• vomiting or nausea
• convulsions or seizures
• trouble waking up from sleep
• slurred speech
• pupil dilation
• weakness or numbness in fingers or toes
• coordination problems
• increased confusion, agitation, or restlessness
A severe brain injury could also leave a person in a coma or vegetative state where they remain unconscious or only experience momentary periods of alertness.

To prove negligence, a claim requires that the victim of the injury, or plaintiff in a lawsuit, shows that the party they’re filing the lawsuit against is at fault or legally responsible for the brain injury.
To win a brain injury lawsuit, a plaintiff’s lawyer must prove four elements:
• under law, the defendant owed a duty to the victim
• the defendant breached its duty
• the defendant’s failure of its duty caused the plaintiff’s brain injury
• the plaintiff was injured and suffered damages as defined by law
It can be difficult to link someone’s negligence to a brain injury. Brain injuries are complicated, so any documents or evidence collected by the victim are crucial for your claim.
