A blow to the head can cause temporary or permanent traumatic brain injury (TBI). TBI symptoms can be severe and pervasive, and can also lead to permanent impairment when a brain injury is severe and results in bleeding, torn tissues, or other permanent damage.
In many cases, traumatic brain injuries occur due to the negligence or wrongdoing of others. When a person, company, or agency is to blame for your TBI, you have rights under Florida law. However, if you want to hold those responsible liable for your losses, you’ll need to know how to navigate the justice system.

We provide compassionate representation, working with you to understand your claim, determine what your case is worth, build evidence, and maximize your chances of fair compensation.

How Does a Brain Injury Impact Your Life?
A brain injury can have a profound impact on every aspect of your life because your brain controls your thoughts, your mood, your memory, your cognition, and your ability to make your body work.
According to the American Brain Foundation, some of the potential consequences of brain injury can include:
- Headaches
- Dizziness
- Confusion
- Blurred vision
- Changes in sleep patterns
- Memory problems
- Challenges with concentration
- Ringing in the ears
- Mood changes
- Seizures
- Loss of coordination
- Difficulty speaking
- Epilepsy
- An increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases
- Loss of consciousness
- Death
When you suffer a brain injury, you may not always get better. You may need months of rehabilitation to relearn skills, your relationships may be impacted, and you may never be able to return to your job. You need compensation for all of these losses, including economic and non-financial damage you endure.
What can a Temple Terrace Brain Injury Lawyer do to help?
After a brain injury, you need to get legal help from an experienced attorney who can help you understand and protect your rights. A Temple Terrace brain injury attorney can:
- Help you to identify defendants who could be held liable. For example, if your brain injury occurred due to a car crash, you could pursue a claim against the driver. If it happened due to an act of violence, you may be able to pursue a claim against the property owner for negligent security. You could also sue a property owner if you suffer injury from a fall. Diaco Law will help you to determine all parties who could be held responsible.
- Assist in proving your claim: You’ll need to show the defendant had an obligation to you, fell short, and caused your brain injury as a result. We’ll work from day one to gather evidence, find experts to testify about your injury, and help you make the right legal arguments to maximize your chances of recovering.
- Negotiate on your behalf: Brain injury claims are often resolved outside of court through a settlement. Our legal team is skilled at negotiation, and insurers know we won’t back down, so you stand a good chance of a fair settlement offer.
- Litigate your case: Going to court may be necessary to get the compensation you deserve, and our team has the trial experience necessary to make the strongest case possible.
