Dealing with a brain injury, and the inevitable physical injuries that go with it, is one of the toughest things a person will have to face. At Brain Injury Law of Seattle, we are absolutely committed to helping every one of our clients get the best medical and legal help they need to get back to where they were before the injury. Sometimes brain injuries can last a long time, so we make it our job to get you in to see the leading brain injury experts in the Seattle area to ensure the best treatment for your injury.

At Brain Injury Law we believe the best way to objectively document a brain injury is to show the damage itself. Normal MRI's cannot show the microscopic damage that occurs on the cellular level, making it easy for the wrongdoer to claim there is no brain injury. To counter that, we use cutting edge technologies to help prove your brain injury. When a brain injury occurs, microscopic damage occurs to your brain cells when pulled apart. Scarring and inflammation then result at the cellular level that cannot be seen on normal MRI or CT scan. One way to see these areas of brain damage is an enhanced MRI called ASL that uses a special technique to measure diminished blood flow in the areas of the brain where scarring and inflammation are occurring because of trauma. At Brain Injury Law, we are one of only a handful of law firms in the country that use this and other techniques like it to prove a client's brain injury.

Another enhanced MRI technique we use for our clients is called Diffuse Tenser Imaging (DTI). This technique has been used for many years now to help measure white matter damage to the inner part of the brain. While ASL measures grey matter damage on the outer part of the brain, DTI measures the deeper white matter damage that cannot be seen on normal MRI either. This is another way to objectify brain damage that the responsible party will try to claim does not exist. We believe the best way to defeat the usual defense arguments in that brain injuries all resolve within 6 weeks is to show through objective evidence that your brain injury is in fact real through cutting edge science. Once again, at Brain Injury Law, we are one of a handful of law firms in the country that utilize these techniques to help our clients prove their case objectively so they can get the help they need.
