ORLANDO MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT ATTORNEY | DAYTONA MOTORCYCLE | ACCIDENT ATTORNEY CONSULTS | DOUG BILLS-REDON ATTORNEY AT LAW

Attorney in Orlando

I've been an attorney in Orlando practicing accident and personal injury law for over ten years. During my career I've seen many people actually suffer brain injury only to be accused of simply having pre-existing depression or emotional problems.  Some brain injuries are so subtle that although they may cause permanent forgetfulness, constant tiredness or even loss of IQ, the injury can be very difficult to properly diagnose.  Only a qualifed medical doctor with experience with this type of injury can properly diagnose it.  If you have been in an accident, in Orlando,  I strongly recommend you keep a journal.  Note down any mood changes, forgetfulness or ongoing mood swings.  Especially in cases where there was any trauma to the head, it is important to closely monitor ourselves for signs of brain injury.  There is a saying that there is no such thing as a small brain injury.  In other words, even a "small" injury to the head can result in a lifetime of forgetfulness, depression or mood swings and is therefore very serious.  After a head injury most doctors warn to look out for nausea, forgetfulness and headache.  These can be signs of depression or even brain injury from a concussion and unless well documented and diagnosed by a qualified physician, can be very difficult to prove.  A personal journal can help a patient be somewhat objective and assist in recalling symptoms which may not be present the on day you visit your doctor, but which may have been present during the week prior to the visit.  If you need to speak to an attorney in Orlando, accident attorney Doug Bills is available for free consultations by calling toll free 888-420-hurt.
