The human brain has many parts, each responsible for certain functions. Together, these parts form the control center for the human body. The human brain controls virtually any activity necessary to survive, including thought, breath, thirst, and hunger. Injury to the head and brain can result in permanent or temporary loss of vital functions. Tragically, severe head and brain injuries can also result in death.
Shockingly, more than 130 people die every day in the U.S. from sustaining a head injury. Sadly, a large majority of these deaths occurred in preventable acts of negligence. At the Mitchell Law Corporation, our aggressive attorneys in San Diego have successfully represented clients seriously injured through no fault of their own and can assist you in your quest for justice. We have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for our clients’ work-related injury damages and are committed to helping victims obtain fair settlements.

If you or someone you know suffered a serious head injury at work, do not wait to contact an ethical lawyer in Los Angeles at the Mitchell Law Corporation. We can prevent you from being denied the ability to file a workers’ compensation claim. Please keep in mind, per California law, victims usually only have one year from the date the injury occurred to take legal action. One year may sound like a long time, but the legal process is complex and cannot be rushed. Do not risk losing your legal right to significant compensation for injury-related damages.
Many victims realize too late that without aggressive legal representation it can be very difficult to recover any compensation. With an experienced attorney in San Diego at the Mitchell Law Corporation working for them, victims are likelier to get larger settlements and higher quality medical care.
We can help put you on the path to recovery (if a full recovery is possible). Call our Los Angeles, San Diego and Riverside offices toll free at 619-702-6518 to arrange a free consultation.
