A concussion is not ‘just a concussion.’ It is a neurological injury that can affect every part of your life.

Brain & Concussion Litigation
Concussions and traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are often misunderstood, minimized, or overlooked entirely in the legal system. At Sweeton Injury Law, I approach these cases with a deep, dual-trained perspective, combining my background as a neuroscientist and clinical psychologist with focused advocacy as a personal injury attorney.
Brain injuries demand more than standard legal strategies. They require precise documentation, careful interpretation of imaging and neuropsychological data, and an understanding of how memory, cognition, emotional regulation, and daily functioning are affected. I translate this science clearly and effectively, ensuring that your injury is recognized for what it truly is: not “just a concussion,” but a significant neurological event that can impact every part of your life.
Whether your concussion resulted from a car crash, fall, workplace event, assault, or another form of negligence, I build evidence-backed, medically grounded cases that reflect the real-world impact of your injury. That means collaborating with other attorneys, consulting with trusted medical providers, analyzing symptom trajectories, identifying post-concussive complications, and explaining to insurers or juries how brain injuries show up beyond what a CT scan can reveal.
My approach is both trauma-informed and outcome-driven: I recognize the cognitive fatigue, overwhelm, and emotional strain clients often feel during the legal process, and I work to reduce that burden while pushing your case forward with strength and clarity. You deserve an advocate who understands the neuroscience behind your symptoms—and who will fight to ensure your future medical needs, earning capacity, and quality of life are fully valued.
If you’re navigating life after a concussion or traumatic brain injury, you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to protect your rights, elevate the science behind your case, and pursue the compensation and stability you deserve.

PTSD & Trauma Cases
PTSD and trauma-related injuries can change lives in profound and invisible ways. When PTSD develops after an accident, assault, workplace event, or other negligent act, the legal system often struggles to appreciate its depth and impact. At Sweeton Injury Law, I bring years of clinical and forensic experience in trauma psychology to ensure your injuries are recognized, documented, and taken seriously from day one.
Trauma affects memory, decision-making, sleep, emotional stability, and the body’s entire stress response system. These effects aren’t “soft injuries”—they can be disabling, costly, and life-altering. My background allows me to understand how trauma symptoms emerge after high-stress events, and explain their significance in clear legal language that insurers, opposing counsel, and juries can understand.
Building a strong PTSD claim requires more than showing a diagnosis. It involves connecting the traumatic event to the onset of symptoms, documenting how the condition interferes with daily functioning, and anticipating long-term needs for therapy, medication, or supportive care. I collaborate with qualified mental health providers and use evidence-based criteria to establish the seriousness of your condition.
You’ll never be told to “get over it.” As a long-time PTSD psychologist, I understand how trauma affects the body and brain, how it disrupts relationships and employment, and how retraumatization can occur during the claims process. My trauma-informed approach minimizes stress for clients while ensuring the legal strategy remains firm, structured, and effective.
If you’re living with PTSD or trauma-related symptoms because of someone else’s wrongdoing, you deserve a lawyer who understands the science, respects your experience, and knows how to fight for meaningful recovery. I’m here to help you reclaim safety, stability, and control over your life.

Catastrophic and serious injuries don’t just disrupt life—they can forever alter it.

Serious Injury & Catastrophic Harm
Catastrophic and serious injuries don’t just disrupt life; they can forever alter it. Whether you are coping with a spinal injury, multiple fractures, internal injuries, surgical complications, or chronic pain, your recovery often involves long-term treatment, significant financial strain, and a deep emotional toll. At Sweeton Injury Law, I provide the committed, detailed advocacy these cases demand.
The consequences of a severe injury extend far beyond medical bills. You may face months or years of lost income, permanent mobility changes, and a future filled with ongoing care needs. My role is to understand the full scope of your losses and ensure they’re presented clearly and powerfully to insurers or courts. Building a strong case means documenting your medical journey, understanding the trajectory of healing, and projecting long-term costs with precision.
Serious injury cases often require coordination with other attorneys, surgeons, rehabilitation specialists, physiatrists, and pain-management providers. I’m skilled at reviewing medical records, identifying patterns, and translating complex treatment plans into compelling evidence. I take a structured, comprehensive approach that highlights how each injury has impacted your day-to-day life and long-term independence.
But serious injuries also come with trauma, fear, and uncertainty. My approach blends clear legal strategy with an understanding of the emotional dimensions of recovery. You will always be treated with compassion, clarity, and respect. You’ll never be rushed or dismissed.
When you’re facing the aftermath of a catastrophic injury, you need an advocate who will fight for your future with strength and precision. I’m here to help you secure the care, stability, and financial recovery needed to rebuild.

Sexual Assault & Abuse
Sexual abuse and sexual assault can cause profound and lasting harm. Survivors often experience not only physical injuries, but also significant psychological trauma, including post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, depression, and disruptions to memory and trust.
At Sweeton Injury Law, we represent survivors in civil lawsuits against perpetrators and the institutions that enabled the abuse. These cases require a deep understanding of trauma, memory, and the long-term impact of assault, areas where neuroscience and psychological expertise can make a critical difference.
Many survivors are told that what happened to them will be impossible to prove, especially when the abuse occurred years earlier or when trauma has affected memory. In reality, trauma science often explains exactly why survivors remember events the way they do.
Civil lawsuits can help survivors hold perpetrators and institutions accountable while recovering compensation for the harm they have suffered.
We represent survivors in cases involving:
• sexual assault and rape
• sexual abuse by trusted individuals
• abuse in schools, universities, and youth programs
• workplace sexual assault and harassment
• abuse by medical providers, therapists, or caregivers
• assaults occurring in unsafe or poorly supervised environments
These cases are handled with care, discretion, and a trauma-informed approach that prioritizes both accountability and healing. Also, you can pursue a civil lawsuit even if no criminal charges were filed.

Institutional negligence cases focus on holding organizations accountable.

Institutional Negligence
In many abuse and injury cases, the harm did not occur in isolation. It happened because an organization failed to protect the people in its care.
Schools, employers, healthcare systems, religious institutions, and other organizations often have a legal duty to provide safe environments. When they ignore warning signs, fail to supervise staff, or attempt to conceal misconduct, the consequences can be devastating.
Institutional negligence cases focus on holding organizations accountable for the systems that allowed harm to occur.
Sweeton Injury Law investigates and litigates cases involving:
• schools or universities that failed to prevent abuse
• workplaces that ignored reports of harassment or assault
• healthcare facilities that allowed patient abuse
• youth programs or athletic organizations that failed to supervise staff
• negligent security that allowed assaults to occur
• organizations that concealed or ignored reports of misconduct
These cases often involve complex investigations, internal policies, and patterns of behavior within an organization. Building them requires careful analysis of records, testimony, and expert evidence.
Our firm approaches these cases with a combination of legal strategy, psychological insight, and scientific understanding of trauma, helping ensure that the full impact of institutional failures is recognized in court.
Holding institutions accountable not only provides justice for survivors—it helps prevent future harm.
