Brain Injury Attorney Serving Fort Washington & Prince George’s County

Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) can change lives forever—even when they’re not immediately visible. From memory loss and headaches to cognitive decline and long-term disability, TBIs often require extensive care and expert legal handling. At our Fort Washington office, we help injured clients across Prince George’s County and Southern Maryland pursue full and fair compensation for brain injuries caused by someone else’s negligence.

Invisible injuries are just as serious—and harder to prove.

Why Brain Injuries Are Legally Complex

Unlike broken bones or visible wounds, brain injuries produce no outside visible trauma but can take longer to heal and overcome.   Some clients experience symptoms right away, while others may not realize something is wrong for weeks. These cases often require:

  • Advanced medical imaging (MRIs, CT scans)
  • Expert neurologist evaluations
  • Life care planners to project future costs
  • Neuropsychological testing


We coordinate with trusted medical experts to understand the significance of your injury and how it affects and will affect your life.  Because brain injuries are internal injuries,it oftentime takes experts to convey to insurance companies the full impact of what happened.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I know if I have a concussion or traumatic brain injury (TBI)?

    A concussion is a mild type of TBI.  Common symptoms include headaches, confusion, memory loss, dizziness, and mood changes. Some symptoms may take days or weeks to appear. See a doctor right away and document your symptoms carefully.

  • How long do I have to file a brain injury lawsuit in Maryland?

    The standard deadline is 3 years from the date of injury—but acting quickly helps preserve medical evidence and strengthen your case.

  • What if the insurance company says my injury is “mild”?

    Even mild TBIs can cause lasting symptoms. We work with neurologists and medical experts who know how to explain your condition clearly in legal terms.

  • Can a concussion be grounds for a lawsuit?

    Yes. A concussion is a brain injury. If it was caused by someone else’s negligence, you may have a valid claim
