Helping
People with
Traumatically Induced Spinal Injuries and
Traumatic Brain Injuries is Our Passion
Every 27 seconds an American
suffers a lifelong traumatic brain injury “TBI”-related
or traumatically caused spinal injury-related
disability from falls, car crashes, assaults,
medical malpractice, sports accidents, and other
means. |
If this is you or a loved one what do you
do? Where do you go for help? What services are available
to you and your friends and family who, along with you,
have their lives changed forever by trauma induced
disabilities? Changes you never thought possible, much
less planned for, now require decisions, and now you need
guidance in many areas of expertise.
But where do you find these services? How
do you know which services will help. How do you know what
you need? The cost of rehabilitation, life care for every
day needs, identifying those needs, and how to make every
day life easier. How to make every day life livable?
| And,
who or what will pay for all of these expensive
necessities? |
There are government services available,
and in some cases health or long term care insurance as
well, to help you and/or your family if you are afflicted
or close to someone who has sustained such damage.
Necessary life care and rehabilitation services to
children, seniors, victims of domestic violence, racial or
ethnic minorities, women, and others are available. It is
necessary to transition people from hospital to home;find
trained families, teachers and communities that know how
to care for people with TBI or spinal related injuries;
what rights protect TBI or spinal cord injury (CSI)
victims nationwide.
In addition to the medical and rehabilitation experts that
can provide much of this help you and/or your loved ones
need financial help to cope with these changes.
Again, who will pay for all of these expensive
necessities? What happens where there are not government
services for particular needs you have, or there is no
insurance or the insurance runs out?
How do you make your new life, and/or your loved one’s
new life, as a person with disabilities productive,
rewarding, and satisfying? How do you make that new life
easier?
The answers to all of these questions can be found in a
lawyer who is experienced in the legal aspects of trauma
induced brain and spinal cord injury, post concussive
syndrome, brain stem injury, head injuries or concussion.
Attorney Stephen Jamieson, as well as his partners in the
Los Angeles based firm of Solomon, Saltsman &
Jamieson, are experienced in these matters.

For over 23 years Mr. Jamieson, and his
partners, have litigated and taken to trial numerous
trauma induced brain and spinal injury matters. They have
been fortunate to become trusted advisors to the injured
and their families; and to provide guidance and direction
to achieve the most legal satisfaction. It takes a depth
of knowledge to put together a team of professionals that
can ascertain the economic impact these severe injuries
cause to the injured person, as well as their families,
and then to present that information in a simple and
direct manner to a judge and jury. The knowledgeable, yet
simple, direct, and efficient manner, has resulted in
verdicts, awards, and settlements exceeding $70,000,000.
The every day life needs, as well as rehabilitation and
medical care, are expensive and it was not your fault. Let
the perpetrator of the injury, and his or her insurance
carrier and/or employer, compensate you and your family to
a level you deserve.
Previous cases examples include a young man who suffered a
cerebrovascular accident when he was struck repeatedly
during a sporting event, another young man who was working
as a pavement contractor when a community bus collided
with the machine he was driving, and yet another when a
heavy piece of concrete fell on the head of an
unsuspecting male requiring 32 metal plates in the skull.
Each of these were either settled or tried to verdict.
Verdict and settlements for this type of case range from
close to $1,000,000 to $35,000,000. Mr. Jamieson, and his
partners, can help you fully ascertain and understand your
unique needs, calculate the economic cost of those needs,
present that to the trier of fact, and obtain for you fair
compensation. No more and no less.

What to do now? First, save the evidence!
Second, save the evidence! Many people do nothing
to preserve the evidence that will help prove what
happened and why it happened. Without that
evidence it dramatically reduces your ability to
obtain just compensation since it reduces your
ability to prove your case. So, third, preserve
the evidence!
