Overview

Insurance adjusters sometimes argue that a brain injury isn't real if imaging looks normal. We counter that with neuropsychological testing, treating physician records, and a clear picture of how your daily life has changed.

Liability Considerations

A traumatic brain injury does not require abnormal imaging to be real and compensable — clinical findings and neuropsychological testing can establish the injury and its impact on your life, regardless of the cause.

Deadlines and Legal Framework

A normal CT scan doesn't rule out a real brain injury. Many concussions and mild traumatic brain injuries are diagnosed through clinical evaluation and neuropsychological testing rather than imaging alone.

Mistakes That Can Hurt Your Case

We see these missteps regularly in Bishop brain injuries cases. Avoiding them protects your claim.

1. Returning to work or activity before medical clearance

2. Minimizing symptoms to doctors

3. Accepting an early settlement before your prognosis is clear

4. Skipping recommended follow-up care

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I have a real brain injury even with a normal CT scan?

Yes. Many concussions and mild traumatic brain injuries don't show on initial imaging, but clinical evaluation and neuropsychological testing can still support your claim.

Will the insurance company say I'm exaggerating my symptoms?

Sometimes. Consistent treatment, credible medical experts, and objective testing help counter that argument.

What if my symptoms didn't appear right away?

Delayed symptoms are common with brain injuries. Documenting them as soon as they appear, and connecting them back to the incident, is an important part of your claim.
