Traumatic Brain Injury Attorney in San Antonio

Legal Help For Life-Changing Brain Injuries

A blow to the head can change your life in seconds. You might walk away from a crash or fall believing you are fine, then days later you're dealing with headaches, confusion, memory problems, or mood swings. When you or someone you love has suffered a traumatic brain injury after a preventable accident, you deserve answers. You deserve accountability. You deserve a chance at recovering the compensation you need to move forward with your life.

At The Warrior Law Firm, we help people like you and families like yours fight for justice every single day. Led by Attorney Luis Guerrero, our firm represents people with catastrophic injuries, people whose lives have been forever changed by a single act of negligence. We recognize the complex nature of these types of injuries and understand how frustrating it is when insurance companies treat invisible symptoms as if they don't matter. That's why we fight tirelessly for our clients, helping them not only hold liable parties responsible for their losses but also advocating for the full compensation they are owed so that they can begin to rebuild their lives and their futures.

The Warrior Law Firm has already recovered millions of dollars for injured clients. We're proud of our proven track record, but we're even prouder to provide something many larger offices don't: direct access to your attorney and clear, down-to-earth communication.

A Team You Can Trust with Your TBI Recovery

People with traumatic brain injuries often feel dismissed. Doctors are often rushed, well-meaning friends don't always understand, and insurance adjusters sometimes act as if a concussion is no big deal. At The Warrior Law Firm, we aim to provide TBI survivors with the opposite of that experience. 

When Luis Guerrero first opened the firm, his goal was to give injured people the kind of personal attention he would want for his own family. To that end, every client has Luis’s personal cell phone number, and he welcomes questions, updates, and concerns as they arise, even on weekends. That level of access is especially important in traumatic brain injury cases, where new symptoms can appear suddenly and small changes can be hard to track. With our team, clients don't have to fight through layers of staff just to get a simple answer about their case.

When insurers try to downplay a traumatic brain injury or pressure someone into taking a low settlement, our team takes a warrior mindset. We go to battle for our clients, working diligently to gather medical records, listening to truly understand how the brain injury affects our clients' daily lives, and pushing back when insurance adjusters try to treat a serious TBI like a short-term inconvenience. The millions of dollars we've recovered for clients, both in settlements and verdicts, show what committed advocacy can accomplish.

Understanding Traumatic Brain Injuries

A brain injury occurs when a sudden impact or jolt to the head disrupts how the brain works. A traumatic brain injury can range from relatively mild, such as a concussion that causes short-term problems, to a severe injury that leads to permanent disability. Even so-called “mild” TBIs can create real, long-lasting challenges with thinking, mood, behavior, sleep, and more.

How Do TBIs Happen?

Many traumatic brain injuries come from crashes on busy routes like I-10, Loop 410, or surface streets throughout San Antonio. Others happen in falls, workplace incidents, sports, or assaults. In many of these situations, a person may not lose consciousness or may feel only shaken at first, then notice symptoms in the hours or days that follow.

The leading causes of traumatic brain injuries include: 

• Motor vehicle accidents 
• Falls, both from heights and slip and falls
• Sports and recreation incidents
• Being struck by or against moving objects
• Assault and other acts of violence

While the causes are varied, one thing is the same: most traumatic brain injuries are preventable. They occur when someone else is careless or intentionally tries to hurt another person. 

Common TBI Symptoms 

Common signs of brain injuries include:

• Headaches
• Dizziness
• Nausea
• Blurred vision 
• Trouble concentrating
• Memory gaps
• Irritability
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Changes in sleep patterns

Some people notice that they cannot follow conversations the way they used to or that they become overwhelmed in noisy or crowded places. Family members may be the first to notice personality changes. These symptoms can be difficult to explain and are sometimes missed in quick emergency room visits. Imaging tests can look normal while the person still struggles at work or at home. Insurance companies sometimes use those gaps as an excuse to argue that a traumatic brain injury is minor or unrelated to the accident.

That is one reason it's so important to seek prompt medical care and report any and all symptoms you're experiencing, no matter how insignificant or unrelated they may seem. Seeing a doctor, following up with specialists when needed, and documenting how life has changed can help build a clearer picture of how the brain injury affects you. An attorney who understands TBIs can then work with that information while dealing with the insurer.

Steps To Take After A Brain Injury

After a brain injury, it's normal to feel unsure about what to do next. You might be trying to balance doctor visits, rest, family responsibilities, and calls from an insurance adjuster who seems rushed, dismissive, or insistent. Taking a few careful steps right now can protect both your health and your legal rights.

Here are some things to do after a traumatic brain injury:

• Seek prompt medical care (if you have not done so already) and follow up with any recommended visits, even if you initially felt fine.
• Write down or record your symptoms each day, including headaches, mood changes, and memory problems, as well as how long they last.
• Ask family members, friends, and/or coworkers to note any changes they see in your behavior or abilities. Keep track of these changes.
• Keep copies of your medical reports, the accident report (if there is one), work notes, and any receipts related to the injury and/or your treatment.
• Be cautious about giving recorded statements to insurance companies or accepting an early settlement before you know the full impact of the brain injury.

Trying to manage all of this alone, especially while dealing with a traumatic brain injury, can feel like too much. When you contact The Warrior Law Firm, you can hand many of the stressful conversations with the insurance company over to us. We'll take on the practical legal steps while you focus on healing and managing your daily life. 

How Our Firm Handles TBI Claims

Traumatic brain injury cases are different from many other personal injury claims. The symptoms are often invisible, the recovery timeline can be uncertain, and the impact on work and relationships can be hard to measure. Our San Antonio traumatic brain injury lawyers approach these cases with careful attention to both the medical details and each client's personal story.

When we take a case, we begin by reviewing any available records and information to understand how the incident happened and who may be responsible. We look at police reports, photographs, and witness information (if available), and we pay close attention to medical documentation that shows how the brain injury occurred and/or developed over time. The goal is to build a clear picture of how the TBI has changed your daily life and future plans.

Communication is a central part of our process. We know that many people with TBIs struggle with memory, focus, or information overload. Our team explains each stage of your claim in plain terms, often summarizing key points and breaking down complex legal issues so that you and your family feel comfortable, informed, and empowered. Plus, you are always welcome to call or text us directly when questions come up, instead of waiting days for a response.

Compensation for TBI Survivors

The financial impact of a traumatic brain injury is immense. While the mental and emotional toll cannot be overstated, for many families, it's the sheer out-of-pocket expenses that cause the most strain. From costly emergency care to ongoing medical treatment, not to mention weeks, months, or possibly even years of missed work due to the injury, the bills add up fast, and it isn't always easy to keep up. 

A traumatic brain injury lawsuit allows you to seek financial compensation for the past, current, and future losses you have endured because of the injury. This might include things like:

• Ambulance or other emergency medical transportation fees
• Costs associated with emergency room visits and hospital stays
• Medical bills related to diagnostic care, surgeries, and other treatment
• The cost of prescription medications to help manage ongoing pain
• Physical and/or cognitive rehabilitation therapy expenses 
• Out-of-pocket expenses for transportation to and from medical appointments
• Projected future medical expenses for ongoing or further care

But medical expenses aren't the only costs associated with a traumatic brain injury, nor are the costs of such an injury merely financial in nature. You could also be entitled to compensation for:

• Lost income or wages as a result of time taken off work due to the injury
• Loss of future income and/or earning potential related to the injury 
• Physical, mental, and emotional pain and suffering 
• Miscellaneous expenses related to the injury, such as in-home care or home modifications

At The Warrior Law Firm, we take your future into account. Our brain injury attorneys in San Antonio are prepared to not only aggressively seek compensation for your immediate losses but also for future damages that affect your quality of life.

Traumatic Brain Injury FAQ

Can I have a TBI if I felt fine at first?

Yes, many people with traumatic brain injuries feel normal right after an accident, then develop symptoms over the next several hours or days. Delayed headaches, confusion, mood changes, or sleep problems can still be related to the incident. It is important to see a doctor and talk with an attorney about your options.

How will your firm communicate if I have memory issues?

Our firm adjusts communication to your needs. Luis can provide written summaries, repeat information as needed, and speak with trusted family members with your permission. You have his cell phone number, so you can reach out when questions arise and do not have to rely on long, confusing email chains.

Do I have to pay anything upfront for a TBI case?

We work on a contingency fee basis instead of charging upfront fees. This means that you don't pay anything unless we recover a settlement (or verdict) for you. During your free consultation, we can explain how costs and fees are handled so you can decide whether to proceed without worrying about a large payment at the start.

How long do traumatic brain injury cases usually take?

The length of a traumatic brain injury case depends on many factors, including the TBI survivor's medical recovery, how clearly liability can be shown, and how the insurance company responds. Some cases resolve in months and others take longer. You can trust our team to keep you updated and explain what is happening at each stage of the process.
