Written by Joseph A. Nagy
I am Joseph A. Nagy, and I am an experienced traumatic brain injury lawyer, located in Edmonton and serving central and northern Alberta.
I work with top-notch scientific, medical, and other personal injury experts to prove damages in case involving traumatic brain injuries (TBI cases).
I specialize in injuries from all types of motor vehicle accidents.
I know from experience that individuals with mild traumatic brain injuries (MTBIs) sometimes fail to recognize their symptoms. For cases involving a severe traumatic brain injury, I involve my team of personal injury experts. That may include referrals to one or more of the many medical experts on my team, such as a neuropsychologist, neurologist, psychiatrist, or neurosurgeon.
