The client suffered a 15-foot fall and lost consciousness. He was taken to the hospital and underwent treatment for approximately ten months before being released from the industrial clinic and cleared to return to work. The client then contacted Montoya Law for representation.

During the intake process, we inquired about neurological and cognitive symptoms. It became clear that the applicant was experiencing multiple symptoms consistent with a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Despite this, the defendant denied all neurological injuries. We immediately got to work and scheduled the applicant with a neurologist, psychologist, internist, urologist, dentist, otolaryngologist, and neuropsychologist.

After fully evaluating the extent of the damage the applicant suffered as a result of his industrial injury, we were able to obtain a just settlement consisting entirely of new money, with no deductions for previously paid benefits. Although we can never fully restore our client’s health, we will always do everything possible to obtain justice.
