Florida Law: Your Rights After a TBI

Comparative Negligence (51% Rule)

You can recover damages if you are less than 51% at fault; your award is reduced by your percentage of fault.

Liability Paths

  • Negligence & Premises Liability: unsafe conditions, code violations
  • Motor Vehicle Liability: negligent drivers, commercial carriers, rideshare layers
  • Product Liability: defective helmets, vehicle components, or safety devices
  • Third-Party Claims (work incidents): beyond workers’ comp where a non-employer contributed

What Is My TBI Case Worth?

Damages You Can Recover

Economic: ER/hospital care, neurology and imaging, medications, PT/OT/SLP, neuropsych therapy, assistive tech, lost wages, diminished earning capacity, long-term care and transportation
Non-Economic: pain and suffering, cognitive impairment, loss of enjoyment, emotional distress, loss of consortium
Future Losses: life-care plans (therapy frequency, meds, equipment, home/work modifications), periodic surgeries/procedures if needed

Value drivers: severity/persistence of deficits, objective test findings, work limitations, need for ongoing care, and impact on activities of daily living.

Medical & Functional Considerations (That Move the Needle)

  • Document LOC/alteration, PTA (post-traumatic amnesia) duration, and GCS where available
  • Track symptom progression (day 1, week 1, month 1, 3, 6, 12)
  • Record accommodations at work/school and caregiver time
  • Consider co-morbid conditions (neck/spine injuries, PTSD, sleep disorders, migraines)

How Insurers Undervalue TBI Claims (and How We Respond)

  • “Normal MRI = no injury” → explain microstructural injury; rely on neuropsych data and specialist opinions
  • “Symptoms are subjective” → standardized testing, collateral reports, employer/school records
  • “Pre-existing issues” → comparative baselines, treating-provider affidavits, functional change documentation
  • Lowballing future care → detailed life-care plan with costs and frequency

Common TBI Complications

  • Persistent headaches/migraines and vestibular disorders
  • Memory/attention deficits affecting work performance
  • Mood disorders (anxiety, depression), irritability, PTSD
  • Sleep disturbance and fatigue
