Skull Fractures

Oakland Closed Skull Injury Attorneys

When trauma from a car accident or other serious accident causes a break in one of the bonds of the head, it is called a skull fracture. A skull fracture can be as small as a hairline fracture or it can be a depressed fracture, either of which can injure the brain. Given that bleeding is often associated with these injuries, it can be difficult in some cases to see and locate a skull fracture.

If you have suffered a brain injury in a serious accident and would like to learn more about pursuing necessary compensation for your medical costs, it is in your best interest to speak with an attorney. At the San Mateo law firm of Galine, Frye, Fitting & Frangos, we have more than 75 years of combined personal injury experience. Our lawyers can answer any questions you have and help you understand your options for recovery.

  • Car, truck and other auto accidents
  • Blunt trauma from hammers, knives and other sharp objects
  • Construction and other workplace accidents
  • Defective products
  • Bicycle and pedestrian accidents
  • Slip-and-fall accidents
