Milwaukee Attorneys Representing Workers With Concussions
Many people refer to a blow to the head as “having their bell rung.” What many people do not know is that getting their bell rung is more than just a minor inconvenience – it can result in a concussion and many problems down the line.
You do not have to be knocked out to sustain a concussion. A seemingly minor blow to the head can result in a concussion.
If you hit your head at work, you should obtain prompt medical treatment. Additionally, you should seek out help from a Milwaukee attorney who can get you your workers’ compensation benefits. With more than 80 years of combined experience, our father-son legal team is here to help. Call us today at 414-279-2647. We will not collect any fee until your claim is paid.
People who have sustained concussions in the workplace frequently turn to our law firm in distress over chronic headaches. These can be debilitating and can prevent you from performing your work duties. Obtaining medical treatment for your headache can play a crucial role in ensuring that you receive full compensation benefits.
Concussion Symptoms
A concussion is the mildest type of traumatic brain injury. While symptoms of a concussion can vary from person to person, they can include:
- Dizziness
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Chronic headache
- Visual impairment
- Ringing in the ears
- Neurological deficits
- Cognitive deficits
Neurological and cognitive deficits, including memory problems, can be particularly frustrating for our injured clients. Tasks that were once routine may become difficult to perform. This can severely affect not just job performance but also the ability to perform a job at all.
Closed-head injuries resulting in concussion can happen from falling; getting hit on the head with machinery, equipment or a falling object; walking into a poorly marked structure; and conducting many other tasks. While concussions certainly happen to people with manual labor jobs, workers in all industries and occupations are at risk.
