Millions Of Dollars Recovered For Our Clients.
Dedicated & Tenacious Litigation Lawyers in Indianapolis
A brain injury can change every part of a person’s life, from their ability to work and think clearly to their relationships with the people around them, and the full extent of the damage isn’t always obvious right away. Brain injury cases cover traumatic brain injuries caused by car and truck accidents, falls, workplace incidents, and other negligent conduct, ranging from concussions to severe, life-altering injuries.
Brain injuries are often described as invisible injuries, since imaging doesn’t always show clear physical damage even when a person is experiencing real cognitive, emotional, or physical symptoms, which makes proving the injury and its impact more complicated than a visible physical injury. Building a strong brain injury claim generally requires more than medical records alone, often involving neuropsychological testing, testimony from treating physicians, and sometimes a life care planner who can project the cost of future treatment, therapy, and support the person will need. Indiana’s modified comparative fault rule and two-year statute of limitations generally apply to brain injury claims the same way they apply to other personal injury cases. Family members are often the first to notice subtle changes in personality, memory, or behavior after an accident, and their observations can become an important part of documenting the injury alongside the medical record.
At RileyCate, we build brain injury cases around the full picture of how the injury has affected our client’s life, working with medical experts to document not just the immediate injury but its long-term impact on work, daily functioning, and quality of life. We handle brain injury claims arising from car accidents, falls, workplace incidents, and other forms of negligence.
Brain injury cases require substantial medical evidence and often significant damages calculations, which is exactly the kind of case where trial-tested litigation experience matters most. Our team brings extensive trial experience to brain injury cases, led by Russell Cate, who is recognized as a Super Lawyer, and his and Will Riley’s appellate work before the Indiana Court of Appeals and the Indiana Supreme Court gives our clients real depth in this area. Will Riley’s Super Lawyers, Top 100 Trial Lawyers, and AV Preeminent recognition reflects that same trial-tested approach.
Every matter we take on is personally overseen by Will and Russell, who staff it with the attorneys, associates, and staff it calls for based on its size and complexity, so your case gets the depth of attention these injuries require.
Nobody plans to need a lawyer. When something goes wrong, what you need first is someone who will listen, tell you honestly where you stand, and take the next steps off your plate. That is how every case at RileyCate, LLC begins.
We represent individuals, families, and small businesses across Fishers, Indianapolis, and surrounding counties in personal injury and complex litigation, business and real estate disputes, criminal defense, and appeals.
Will Riley and Russell Cate personally oversee every matter, staffing each case to its size and complexity. Both are recognized as Super Lawyers and have argued before the Indiana Court of Appeals and Supreme Court. Will also holds an AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell and a Top 100 Trial Lawyer designation.
We are trial-tested, not just settlement-focused. We have tried hundreds of cases, because insurance companies, opposing businesses, and prosecutors negotiate differently with a firm willing to go the distance.
If you or a loved one suffered a brain injury because of someone else’s negligence, we can help you understand the full scope of what your claim should account for.
