New Haven's walkable downtown, college traffic, and busy intersections make it a hotspot for pedestrian accidents. Every year, people are injured near Yale's campus, Whalley Avenue, and Chapel Street—and many of them suffer traumatic brain injuries (TBIs).

As a personal injury attorney helping clients in New Haven, I've seen firsthand how serious these cases can be—and how important it is to act quickly.

Common Local Scenarios
• Students crossing at Elm Street hit by distracted rideshare drivers
• Elderly pedestrians injured near the Green
• Nighttime crashes on poorly lit crosswalks

A momentary lapse by a driver can lead to lifelong cognitive challenges, surgery, and rehabilitation for the injured person.

Why You Need a TBI-Specific Lawyer

TBI cases are different. You need medical proof of the brain injury, long-term care projections, and expert opinions. Insurance companies will downplay the severity or suggest the injury was “mild.” I work with specialists who understand the hidden impacts of concussions and closed-head injuries.

Protect Your Rights

Don't sign paperwork, don't take a quick check, and don't assume the insurer has your best interests in mind.

If you've been hit by a car in New Haven and are dealing with memory loss, headaches, or emotional changes, get evaluated—and then give me a call. I'll fight to make sure you're not left holding the bill for someone else's negligence.
