Minneapolis Concussion Injury Lawyer Douglas Schmidt is scheduled as a keynote speaker at the upcoming Brain Injury Summit. Schmidt will be speaking on the subject of proving concussion injuries in legal cases. He will address the issue of how to obtain justice for concussion injuries. He will note that concussion injuries and mild traumatic brain injuries are often overlooked and not fully appreciated for the serious consequences that can result.
Concussion injuries are frequently overlooked by the medical community. Schmidt’s law firm, the Minneapolis Concussion Injury Lawyers, has been a pioneer in the detection of the overlooked concussion injuries resulting from motor vehicle collision trauma and workplace trauma.
For nearly 20 years, Schmidt has fought for the recognition of concussion brain injuries in youth sports.
For over 40 years, Schmidt has championed the rights of people who have sustained a concussion injury or brain injury in a car accident or any other type of trauma.
Schmidt is recognized as one of the premier concussion and mTBI injury lawyers. He has spoken extensively at seminars for chiropractors, medical doctors, and lawyers on subjects relating to Traumatic Brain Injuries and is the author of a publication entitled New Developments in Concussion and Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries (MBCE, 2016).
Schmidt will be featured as a keynote speaker at The Brain Health Online Summit, speaking about the issue of concussion injuries and brain injuries in car accidents and other types of traumatic events.
The Summit will be geared toward brain injury survivors, caregivers, healthcare professionals, practitioners, medical students, athletes, lawyers, and anyone else interested in brain health.
Schmidt’s presentation will focus on the knowledge and experience that he has acquired in handling 100’s of concussion injury and mild traumatic brain injury cases resulting from car accidents, workplace trauma, and other traumatic injuries.
His presentation will be focuses on the following topics:
2. Post Traumatic Amnesia (PTA) Is a More Important Indicator of Brain Injury Than Loss of Consciousness (LOC).
3. Many Concussions Have a Delayed Development.
4. Vision Problems Are A Serious Consequence of mTBI.
5. Balance & Dizziness Deficits Are a Significant Consequence of mTBI/Concussions.
Schmidt and other Minneapolis Concussion Injury Lawyers on the Schmidt Salita Law Team bring the value of their knowledge and experience to each client’s case. Many clients come to the Team with concussion injuries and traumatic brain injuries that have been totally overlooked by the healthcare community. The Minneapolis Concussion Injury Lawyers work hard to fix that.
If you have been injured and are suffering from headaches, dizziness, and foggy thinking after an injury, you may be suffering from post-concussion syndrome. If you are experiencing irritability, fatigue, and sensitivity to noise and light, it is even more likely that you are experiencing post-concussion syndrome following a mild Traumatic Brain Injury.
Many concussion injuries are overlooked. Some are overlooked because the victims fail to seek medical attention. Many are overlooked because of physical injuries that overwhelm the process. Many injury victims present with severe pain and shock symptoms that make it virtually impossible for any emergency doctor to do any concussion screening.
