Norris & Cantu LLP

Brain damage is one of the most difficult types of injury to diagnose because the symptoms aren’t always present at the time of the actual injury. In fact, many people who end up having brain injury go to the hospital after their accident, get checked out from head to toe, and are sent home with no idea that they have brain damage. 

This type of serious injury is common in cities such as Houston, Texas where numerous construction sites put up new buildings, bridges, and more on a daily basis. Construction is especially common in summer and comes with a hike in brain damage cases due to on-the-job injuries. While construction workers are told to wear protective clothing such as hard hats, this protection isn’t always enough. Due to workplace hazards common to construction sites, construction workers frequently incur injuries, including severe brain damage. 

Your employer is responsible for keeping your work area safe for you. If you’ve been injured at your workplace, especially a construction site, you probably have a personal injury case on your hands that will pay your medical bills for you. If you’ve been unable to work since you became brain damaged, your case may also help you pay your regular bills. 

It isn’t your fault you were injured at work; employers are very aware of their responsibility to keep you safe, and you have every right to have your bills paid. Call Norris & Cantu today, Houston personal injury attorneys who have worked numerous successful brain damage and work-related personal injury cases. We’ve helped others and we’ll help you.

Have you been experiencing depression, irritability, hearing or eyesight problems, or long or short term memory loss? These symptoms, added to a recent accident of any kind, could be signs of brain injury. 

Brain injury isn’t always diagnosed right when it happens. In fact, the symptoms can take months to show up, meaning that it could easily be months from the time you have the accident until the time that you are diagnosed with brain injury. The discovery of brain injury could make you eligible to receive payment for medical bills from the person or company who was responsible for your accident, and possibly from the Houston medical team that failed to diagnose your brain injury. 

Brain injury can make you unable to function properly, and there is no way to know exactly how it will affect each person. Your condition could get worse and it may make you unable to work and earn an income. Instead of letting your bills pile up, call Norris & Cantu, Houston brain injury attorneys, to find out who is really responsible for those bills.

Wrongful death occurs fairly often in Houston, Texas. This is a type of mishap that should be taken to a Houston attorney that has extensive experience with wrongful death cases for reimbursement of incidental expenses, such as costly medical and funeral bills. Wrongful death occurs when a person’s death is caused by another person’s negligence. One example of a wrongful death in Houston is an auto accident that is caused by a driver’s inattention to the road and causes the death of another driver. The victim in this wrongful death situation would not be at fault for the accident, and their family should not have to pay for their medical bills, their funeral, or even to replace or repair their damaged vehicle. 

Defective products cause injuries to unsuspecting citizens fairly often. Some examples of defective products that cause injuries and even death include automobiles that have a high chance of rolling over, defective tires that “blow” unexpectedly, children’s toys that have small objects that children choke on, seatbelt and seatback failures, defective tools, fork lifts, and more. Companies that sell products to the public have a responsibility to test their products for safety so that consumers are not injured. Sometimes companies fail to test products, and sometimes their tests are insufficient. As a consumer, you should not be held accountable for the financial penalties that arise from such negligence. If you have incurred medical bills due to a defective product, the company who sold it to you and/or the manufacturer of the product should be held accountable. In addition, if your injury has caused you to be unable to work for any length of time, you could be reimbursed for the financial loss you incurred during this time. The fact is that a defective product that causes you injury should not also cause you financial burden. The injury was unnecessary and a financial burden is like salted added to your injuries.
