Truck Wrecks Resulting in Brain Injuries

Scherr’s session, titled “Risks of Brain Injuries in Truck Crashes”, will discuss the traumatic brain injuries that often result from catastrophic truck wrecks. The brain injuries caused by truck wrecks can be life-altering, causing those injured to sometimes lose the ability to care for themselves and others. Families who are affected by these injuries are often forever changed because of a trucking company’s negligence.

Scherr’s role as Parliamentarian on the AAJ’s Traumatic Brain Injury Litigation Group and previous position as the legal liaison to the Brain Injury Association of American makes her an expert in handling cases that involve brain injuries. Litigating brain injury cases, especially those caused by a truck wreck, can be complex, requiring attorneys to prove the injury was caused by the crash and calculate appropriate compensation based on medical bills, lost wages, and more. As an authority in her field, Scherr will inform attendees about the different types of brain injuries that can result from truck wrecks, ranging from minor to severe.
