Head Injury Attorney New Paltz
When an Accident Causes a Brain Injury ...
In more than 25 years as a lawyer helping injured people, I know how insidious a brain injury can be. At first, the victim and family members may not notice a problem. But then the symptoms begin to show.

I am Jonathan D. Katz; New York brain injury lawyer, serving Ulster County and the surrounding areas. When I hear about an accident that included a blow to the head, I listen to family members and I watch the victim closely.
A willow branch in a state park fell from a tree and struck the victim's head. The victim's only obvious symptom was depression. The park had photographed and cataloged that tree, but had done nothing to make it safe. I subpoenaed the records and tried the case to a successful verdict in the court of claims.
- Brain injury symptoms range from relatively mild changes in cognition to an inability to perform work and daily activities that were once easy. Personality changes, cognitive impairment, confusion and depression are often signs of a traumatic brain injury.
- With a closed head injury, no open wound and no bleeding, the symptoms can go unnoticed by a doctor. It is the family and often their attorney who notice the signs.
- My law firm has the resources necessary to investigate the accident and determine what happened and what avenues for compensation are available.
