Understanding the type of brain injury a victim has suffered can help to guide the formulation of a comprehensive treatment and recovery plan. It can also help the attorneys representing traumatic brain injury victims to determine the best approach to obtaining a positive result.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the first step in addressing a traumatic brain injury is getting past all of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rrkslaw.com\/brain-injuries\/misconceptions-of-brain-injuries\/\">misconceptions<\/a>\u00a0that exist. To be clear, there is no such thing as a &#8220;minor&#8221; brain injury. Even a simple case of whiplash can result in a brain injury that requires weeks or even months of treatment. This can be especially true for people who have suffered brain injuries previously.<\/p>\n<p>At\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rrkslaw.com\/firm-overview\/\">Law offices of Sanford Rosenblum<\/a>, my Albany traumatic brain injury lawyers are committed to helping victims recover from their injuries and move forward with their lives as quickly and completely as possible. I dedicate my entire practice to representing injury victims, and I have secured impressive\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rrkslaw.com\/successes\/\">results<\/a>\u00a0in some of the most complex cases.<\/p>\n<h2>Focal and Diffuse Traumatic Brain Injuries<\/h2>\n<p>Brain injuries are typically classified as either focal or diffuse.<\/p>\n<p>Focal brain injuries are those that impact a very limited portion of the brain. These types of injuries are often associated with accidents involving falling objects, being struck in the head with a weapon or another instrument as might happen in an assault or injuries involving skull fractures. While only impacting a limited portion of the brain, severe focal injuries can cause permanent brain damage or even be fatal to the victim.<\/p>\n<p>Diffuse brain injuries tend to be more widespread and typically impact multiple parts of the brain. Diffuse injuries are commonly associated with motor vehicle accidents,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rrkslaw.com\/construction-site-falls\/\">falls from heights<\/a>\u00a0such as those that happen on construction sites or slip-and-fall injuries. While many diffuse brain injuries involve impact with a windshield or another object, impact is not necessary for a diffuse brain injury to occur. They have occurred in rear-end collisions and cases of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rrkslaw.com\/brain-injuries\/brain-injuries-to-children\/\">shaken baby syndrome<\/a>\u00a0where no direct head impact or other head injury was involved.<\/p>\n<h2>Contact the Albany Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyers of Law offices of Sanford Rosenblum<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.rrkslaw.com\/contact-us\/\">Contact my office<\/a>\u00a0today to discuss your TBI case.
