How a Kirkland Brain Injury Lawyer Can Help
Brain injury cases often require more than basic proof of an accident. A strong claim may depend on medical records, legal opinions, witness statements, and evidence showing how the injury has affected your ability to work and live normally. A Kirkland brain injury lawyer can help by investigating what happened, gathering evidence, working with medical professionals, and dealing with insurance companies on your behalf.
At Lindquist & Kornfeld, we take a detailed approach to traumatic brain injury claims. We review medical records, speak with treating providers, and, when needed, work with specialists who can explain the long-term effects of the injury. We may also gather statements from family members, coworkers, and others who have seen how your condition has changed since the accident. This helps us present a clearer picture of both the visible and invisible harm caused by the injury.

Our Client Testimonials
-
“We presented our case to Mr. Kornfeld late, nearly jeopardizing our right to file a claim, and was the first thing Rob commented on. He accepted our case saying he thought he could help. That was an understatement. His knowledge of the law, insurance liability acumen, incredible industry and diligence, and the earned respect of opposing litigators succeeded in gaining for us the maximum settlement possible. We recommend Mr. Kornfeld wholeheartedly and without hesitation. He is a winner!”- Personal Injury Client

“I hired Robert Kornfeld when I was in a desperate emotional state due to extreme difficulties in my work place. These were the kind of difficulties that required professional assistance because my rights were continually violated in my work place. I thank god for his persistence in my case. No matter how long it took and how frustrated I got he made every effort to make sure that I got compensated for the loss of my job due to work place management violations. Mr. Kornfeld helped me and for that I am forever grateful.”- Employment Discrimination Client

“From the day we walked into Mr. Kornfeld's office until the time our case was resolved, we knew that we were never alone in the journey. We sought justice after facing a terrible ordeal, and with Rob's unwavering support, we were able to bring a semblance of closure to the things we had to go through as a family. Together with the superb assistance of Dawn, his knowledgeable and very organized paralegal, Rob made sure that all issues we faced were noted, and properly addressed. He listened intently, weighed the pros and cons of our case, and answered our questions diligently. He was always on top of the situation, making sure that the other party would not have the chance to give excuses for misjudgment or trivial conclusions. Not once did Rob make us feel pressured when prompted to make decisions, too. Throughout the process, he was there with and for us every step of the way. Dawn, on the other hand, with her quiet presence and immeasurable compassion, kept us constantly informed and updated. Rob, given his extensive knowledge and remarkable experience in medical malpractice, is, without doubt, the BEST advocate anyone could hope for.”- Anonymous

“I am very grateful to Rob Kornfeld and his paralegal for the many months they invested in my personal injury/worker's compensation case. Without his knowledge and dedication, the case may not have gone so well.. I was hit head-on , while working as a bus driver. My ex-employer, being self-insured, cancelled my needed second rotator surgery, deliberately removed me from my job, with the admitted intent to fire me when my FMLA expired, and then wanted to keep a lien on my personal injury settlement. Mr. Kornfeld's knowledge, experience and determination paid off, and I am very grateful to he and his paralegal, Dawn, for being so tolerant of my fears, anxieties, and numerous emails to them, during these harsh economic uncertainties of being injured and un-employed. I am still un-employed, but many thanks to Mr. Kornfeld, I now have the faith I will survive this horrific experience. I highly recommend Rob Kornfeld to any and all injured bus drivers who face the same self-injured suffering.”- Anonymous

“I had a great experience with Robert and his team. He treated me well and explained to me the whole process as we went through the case which took a long time. Though my English was not good , he was able to communicate very well with me through an interpreter.”- Anonymous
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Kirkland brain injury lawyer do?
A Kirkland brain injury lawyer helps investigate the cause of the injury, gather medical and legal evidence, deal with insurance companies, calculate damages, and pursue compensation through settlement or trial. Brain injury cases often require detailed proof of long-term effects, so legal representation can be especially important.
What compensation can I recover after a traumatic brain injury?
Depending on the facts of your case, you may be able to recover compensation for medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost wages, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of quality of life.
What if symptoms appeared after the accident?
It is common for traumatic brain injury symptoms to appear hours or even days after an accident. Delayed symptoms do not necessarily indicate a minor injury. It is important to seek medical care and speak with an attorney as soon as possible.
Do I need a lawyer for a mild traumatic brain injury?
Even a mild traumatic brain injury can cause lasting problems with memory, concentration, mood, sleep, and daily functioning. If someone else’s negligence caused your injury, it may be worth speaking with a lawyer to understand your options.
