How Can a Head or Brain Injury Be Caused By Negligence?

Accidents caused by someone else’s negligence can often result in brain injuries. These include car accidents, motorcycle wrecks, truck crashes, or motor vehicle accidents involving pedestrians or cyclists.

Other types of negligence that can lead to a brain injury include: Oxygen deprivation from defective products like medical equipment or child car seats; heart attacks and strokes due to lack of diagnosis or treatment; open head injuries from skull-penetrating accidents; undiagnosed bacterial and viral infections can harm the brain, e.g., encephalitis and meningitis; toxic exposure through contact with toxins or hazardous materials such as carbon monoxide or lead; an undiagnosed brain tumor resulting in tissue damage due to inflammation of the brain; and ignored warning signs of a birth injury resulting in complications during birth.
