Brain Injury Lawyer in Phoenix, AZ
David R. Farney is an experienced TBI lawyer with a unique personal connection
Perhaps no type of personal injury hits closer to home than traumatic brain injury, known as TBI. Although I’ve been a practicing lawyer since 1980, it was not until my daughter sustained a catastrophic head injury that I became impassioned about this particular field of personal injury law.
As a former board member of the Brain Injury Association of Arizona and a former president of the Tucson Chapter of the Brain Injury Association of Arizona, I understand far more about head and brain injuries than the average injury lawyer. Furthermore, my Phoenix, AZ TBI law firm staunchly committed to minimizing the hefty physical, financial and emotional burdens that affect TBI victims and their families.
Brain injuries — diagnosis and effects
Brain injuries are never simple. Many go undiagnosed in emergency rooms and require significant tests and evaluations to identify. Brain injuries — especially those resulting from trauma — often bring a lifetime of impairments entailing vital therapies and significant costs. As with a debilitating spinal cord injury, a TBI may require a victim to make adjustments in many areas of life, and he or she may be unable to carry on the same lifestyle as before the injury.
Specific areas that brain injury may affect include the following:
- Speech and language
- Sequencing
- Attention
- Reading
- Memory
- Mood
- Personality
- Physical movement
- Abstract reasoning
- Problem-solving skills
- Visual skills
- Hand-eye coordination
- Seizures
