Head Trauma and Spinal Cord Injuries: Lafayette, Louisiana, Attorney
An injury that causes damage to the spinal cord or brain can profoundly alter your life. Spinal cord injuries may result in paraplegia or quadriplegia, while a traumatic brain injury may turn someone into a seemingly different person altogether.
I am Aubrey E. Denton, an AV-Rated* lawyer with more than 30 years of experience representing individuals with catastrophic injuries, including severe spinal cord injuries, brain damage and closed head wounds. I provide personalized, compassionate service, striving to develop relationships with clients based on 100 percent mutual respect and trust.
I see and treat each client as a person, not as a disability. I will work diligently to help you achieve the best possible settlement for your claim. To schedule a free consultation at my law office, contact me any time.
Understanding Medicine
In my years of practicing personal injury law, I have learned much about the practice of medicine. I have attended medical seminars and understand the anatomy, physiology, physics and histology behind catastrophic injuries.
This medical understanding has two significant benefits for my clients: 1) I can fluently argue in court with medical specialists such as neurologists, and 2) I know what kind of medical treatment my clients need, and I can see to it that each one receives the best possible care. In fact, there is a Registered Nurse on staff at my law office to help monitor each client's medical progress.
Adjusting after Catastrophic Injury
A catastrophic injury is one that causes serious, long-term disability or disfigurement. Catastrophic injuries forever alter the lives of the injured, often requiring intensive continuing medical care and supervision. It's important that your settlement cover your present and future medical expenses, lost future earnings, accommodations that may need to be made to your home, and other expenses. I work with a Certified Life-care Planner, investment counselor and an RN to tailor a life-care plan to the needs of each individual family.
