Recognizing the symptoms of a concussion can make the difference between a complete recovery and a lifetime of trouble. Whether your concussion symptoms are subtle or intense, they are a sign that you have suffered a traumatic brain injury that requires proper treatment.

In addition to proper treatment, it is important to know your rights. If you are injured in a car accident, fall or other accident, or if someone, such as a coach, failed to take the appropriate steps to care for you, then you may be entitled to compensation. It is important to contact an experienced Georgia brain injury lawyer during this time.
