Jacksonville Traumatic Brain Injury Lawyer
Jacksonville Injury Attorney for Head Injury Victims
Brain injuries are among the most devastating and traumatic injuries that anyone can endure. Far too often, these types of injuries are caused by what should be a preventable accident spurred on by reckless or negligent behavior from outside the injured person's control. The medical costs of treating a traumatic brain injury can be incredibly expensive, and often result in long-term and even permanent health complications.
You shouldn't have to worry about the cost of your recovery. You should be able to focus the recovery itself, rather than being forced to spend your time dealing with insurance companies who may try to reduce, delay, or deny your claim. Our Jacksonville brain injury lawyers can guard your rights and help you pursue maximum compensation.
At Jason K.S. Porter, P.A., we are former prosecutors, dedicated to representing the rights of the injured. Any type of blow to the head is capable of causing brain damage, whether it is a concussion or a traumatic brain injury. Even if you were not knocked unconscious, you may have suffered a brain injury, and it is advisable to seek proper medical attention for a diagnosis. Treatment can be outrageously expensive, and you may be losing income while you recover. It is vital to do everything you can to achieve a settlement.
If the accident was caused by another person's negligence, you may be entitled to full compensation for every aspect of the injury, including your pain and suffering. Some of the most common causes of traumatic brain injuries include:
- Slip and falls
- Auto accidents
- Falling objects
- Concussive blasts
In addition to the pain of the initial injury, you may be facing a lifetime of headaches, difficulty with physical coordination, memory loss and other cognitive difficulties. If you lost a family member to a brain injury, you should not hesitate to contact our skilled Jacksonville personal injury attorneys to pursue a wrongful death claim.
Fighting for Compensation
Brain injuries are common in motorcycle accidents and bicycle accidents, even when the rider is wearing a helmet. Construction accidents also frequently result in injuries to the brain, such as when falling objects or carelessly handled tools strike the victim's head. It is also possible to receive an injury of this type in a boating accident, when a partial drowning deprives the brain of its oxygen supply. Brain damage is often permanent, and the victim may be forced to cope with the symptoms for a lifetime.

This is my personal experience with Jason porter. I was in need of an attorney. I didn't have a clue on where to go...who to call . or even if they would take the time to listen to my case. Jason porter was extra observative Very calm .. cool.. and collective. Very laid back . But don't let that fool ya. He's a very good attorney. He took our case and since the 1st visit he has lived up to everything he said he could do. Since every case is different. I truly feel as if he took our case personal This is so rare to see in attorneys nowdays Having a attorney that puts aside the so called business mentality to put people first is what I received even tho our case was small I'm sure there will be someone with a need for a attorney and I'm not some rich guy . I live paycheck to paycheck every week but I was treated like royalty respect . And I felt like my case was important I will never forget what he done with my case and the personal decision he made at the end that showed me beyond a doupt that Jason porter is a attorney on our side . Fighting for the clients not a paycheck . not afraid to stand up n fight and never break a sweat his cool demeanor breaks it all down so it's very understanding ... I can't tell you who to call for your attorney but if u read this. then u need to stick with Jason . I'm sure you'll love him and I'm sure you'll be happy Thanx again Jason porter you won my vote for attorney of the year 2015 and I hope I can help someone with there decision on choosing an attorney With Jason's law firm you won't go wrong- Tyron B.

I have to go into detail here because there’s no way That I cannot give high praise for what Nicole Carlucci did for my daughter and I. I’ve learned the hardest way possible that men tend to be at a great disadvantage when dealing with a divorce and with custody problems. My ex-wife kidnapped our child and had every intention of destroying our bond and the great relationship we have. It’s the saddest thing in the world how some people take their own struggles and personal feelings out by using their children as pawns and manipulating to hurt others. Which is why I could not be happier and more grateful for the day I walked into Porter & Porter Law Firm. From day one, my story was heard, understood, and through a year and a half of what felt like full on war just so I could maintain my relationship with me daughter without us being ripped from each other’s lives, Nicole Carlucci supported me and used her expertise to get as close to the absolute best result possible. She never gave up or gave in and that helped me to stay strong, too, when there would be days or weeks my daughter and I would not see each other. If not for Nicole, I can only imagine how much more awful such a nightmare of a situation could have gotten. However, I am now divorced, continue to have an amazing relationship with my daughter, and have court orders to hold my ex responsible and accountable so that way certain things will hopefully never happen again, and if they do, I know who I am calling!! Nicole’s passion to help someone being taking advantage of and her drive to ensure justice be served when someone is manipulating the system is exactly what my daughter and I needed so we can live a happy life. Thank you Nicole and Firm!!- Robert B.

Mr. Porter is an excellent attorney. He helped me and my teenage son through a very difficult situation. He was right there immediately ensuring we had representation. He even called to follow up to ensure we were ok. He is very passionate about helping his clients. He also does not try to charge you if he knows you don’t have a case. He’s very honest and a great person. Highly recommend him if you need legal advice. Kelley- K.H.

I first met Jason Porter in 2003, when our children attended a Christian Preschool together. I saw what he did within our community. He helped many of the families from the preschool over the years so when it came time that my family needed a lawyer I chose him. Jason has helped my family and several of my personal friends, all with positive outcomes. He is a seasoned professional that is respected within the law community. You will be treated with the utmost respect and compassion. I don't know another lawyer of his caliber that offers free consultations and you speak to him personally. Pick Porter.

Jason and his firm came highly recommended by my family member. My son's case would have eventually ended up with negative consequences if not for Jonathan Thatcher. Jonathan was supportive, knowledgeable and kept us informed at all stages of the case. Great firm and appreciate all your hard work in the success of my son's case. I would use this firm again and again.- Kim J.

When I got into an accident, I didn't think I needed a lawyer. However, everything was so confusing and the insurance company was being very pushy. Once I decided I needed to contact a lawyer, I wasn't sure who to call. On the recommendation of a friend who had used him in the past and had a very good experience, I called Jason Porter. I was given an appointment the next day and it was during that appointment I knew I had contacted the right law firm. Mr. Porter was so nice and explained everything in a way that I could understand. He assured me that I would not need to do anything but to get better and he was right! He and his amazing paralegal handled everything so I didn't have to deal with all of the confusion of the insurance company while trying to heal from the injuries I sustained in the accident. Ultimately my case was settled with the insurance company and I received a very fair settlement. I am hoping I never have to use a lawyer again, but if I do, I will definitely be contacting Mr. Porter again.
