If you have sustained a serious head injury or brain trauma, there are many places that you can turn to for help:

• Your doctor or local clinic. Your doctor or local medical clinic can help evaluate you if you have hit your head or have sustained any trauma. In fact, one of the first things that you should do if you suspect there is any chance of brain injury is to get checked out by a qualified medical professional. Even if you feel fine immediately and have no headache or other symptoms, it is important to get checked out. Sometimes, even a fatal brain injury will not present symptoms right away and immediate medical treatment in these situations can save your life. In addition to providing you with treatment, your doctor can recommend services in your area that may be able to help you as you deal with the aftermath and symptoms of a brain injury.
• Your insurance company. If you have been injured in a car accident, truck accident, or other accident where insurance plays a role, you may be able to seek an insurance claim that can help you pay for your medical costs and other costs related to your injury.
• A support group. Support and advocacy groups can help you meet other people who have been living with brain injury and can provide you with a source of sympathy, empathy, and useful advice that can help you as you learn to adjust to life with a serious injury. Your doctor may be able to recommend support groups in your area or you may be able to check in your local phone book for organizations in your region.
• A personal injury attorney. A personal injury attorney is someone you will want to call immediately after sustaining a serious brain injury. A personal injury attorney in North Miami Beach or your community can help you with finding a support group and other resources in your area. More importantly, a good attorney can help you understand whether you have a legal claim and can help you find avenues of compensation so that you have the financial resources to pay for quality medical treatment, wage replacement, and other costs that you may be worried about following your injury.
