There are many different levels and kinds of brain injuries. Some are minor and others are major. Different areas of the brain that are injured can generate completely different consequences. Many people believe that a brain injury will always result in incapacitation. This is obviously a possibility but there are many levels of a brain injury. There are many instances of a brain injury where the victim has less visible symptoms such as memory loss. It is important to consult with an experienced brain injury attorney who is knowledgeable about the injury itself.
