I was visiting a friends house and while I was there we were robbed at gun point. It was the longest 2 hours of my life. to make a long story short, during this time my back was injured, $600 was stolen from my purse, but most of all I fear for my life daily. Life will never be the same for me. My friends were compensated by their insurance company but I am out the money stolen and out money for therapy and not to mention the pain I endure daily. What are my options by law?

pain and suffering??
2 Answer
I think you would be best off finding a personal injury attorney that understands head injuries. I say this because I suffered a head injury in an auto accident, and the attorney I had did not understand them, as much of society doesn’t. It wasn’t until after the car accident settled (for almost nothing) that I was sent for the nuero-pshyc and related tests that got to the bottom of my problems. I now have strange fears and they developed from the accident - I am afraid to screw in lightbulbs, don’t like to be alone, terrified of fire/fireworks - strange things. This is PTSD (Post Tramautic Stress Syndrome).
The common thinking is ‘brain damage’ means some sort of retardation, (no insult intended with me saying this), but brain damage includes TBI, PTSD, [what you’re saying you have], and many other things - it depends on what axis and area of the brain are affected (an impact to the head isn’t necessary) - a stressful/scarey event can do it, which is why you need a PI attorney that understands how brain injuries happen.

You are probably entitled to some type of compensation as well. If your friends were able to get compensation from this incident, I’m assuming that you could file a claim against their insurance company as well. Unfortunately you will probably never get anything form the person that robbed you. I think the best thing you could do is contact a personal injury attorney. This is a traumatic incident and because it occurred on someone elses property I think you are probably entitled to compensation as well.
