San Francisco, CA medical malpractice attorney Nathaniel Leeds tells the story of a memorable brain or spinal cord injury case he handled. They have handled numerous brain and spinal cord injury cases, each with its unique and unfortunate aspects. These injuries profoundly affect people’s lives, but in varying ways. Among their cases, they have encountered situations ranging from the expected, such as paralysis, to more unexpected outcomes, like damage to someone’s executive function.
One notable client, for instance, experienced brain damage due to medical malpractice. Remarkably, he could still dress and feed himself but had become uncontrollably violent. As a result, he had to reside in a specialized facility for the rest of his life to manage these extreme tendencies. Despite his friendly demeanor in other aspects, the impact on his family was unforgettable.
Each of these cases stands out in its own way due to the unique and lasting effects they have on the individuals involved and their families.
