Corpus Christi Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyers
Unfortunately, many Texans suffer traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) in accidents ranging from traffic crashes to high-contact sporting events. What makes these injuries significantly different from other head injuries, such as concussions, is their severity and often long-term impact on one’s life.
A TBI results from a forceful head impact that disrupts normal brain function, potentially causing long-lasting effects. Shaking, jolting, or objects penetrating the skull can cause bruises, ruptures, tears, and bleeding in the brain.
While concussions are classified as mild TBIs, they may not always present immediate symptoms and can easily be overlooked. In contrast, TBIs involve a more comprehensive range of injury severity and may lead to profound cognitive, physical, and emotional changes that require extensive recovery and rehabilitation.
Personal injury claims and lawsuits often stem from TBIs caused by negligence-based accidents or intentional harm. At Gonzales Law Firm, we represent Texans who have suffered these devastating injuries.
Our firm includes a board-certified personal injury lawyer who brings exceptional expertise and experience to your case. Attorney Rudy Gonzales is complemented by his team of family members who are legal professionals with the knowledge, skills, and client empathy that make for top-tier representation.

What Kinds of Accidents/Events Cause Traumatic Brain Injuries?
TBIs can occur in a multitude of situations, with common causes including:
- Motor vehicle accidents: Car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian collisions are the primary cause of incidents leading to significant impacts affecting the brain.
- Falls: Particularly among older adults, falls are a leading cause of TBIs.
- Sports injuries: Contact sports, including football and boxing, often result in TBIs due to impacts and collisions.
- Workplace accidents: Construction and industrial environments can pose risks for head injuries due to falling objects or workers falling from heights or over debris.
- Violent incidents: Assaults and other violent acts can cause traumatic brain injuries.
