The People
Behind Brain Injury Law
Our Founder - Constance Miller,
MA. Psychology
-
When bad things happen to Constance Miller
of Seattle, Washington, she blazes a trail through them and then pulls
others along behind her.
-
As a career advocate of human rights and accessible
health care, Miller has solved her own health problems and helped thousands
of others who share the same predicament.
-
When a Dalkon Shield caused her illness and
injury, Miller became one of the nation's foremost experts on the Shield
and its effects on women's health.
-
Miller’s work on behalf of Shield-injured
women has been featured in national magazines such as Ms., Essence, and
Woman's World.
-
Miller has assisted thousands of women to
recover millions of dollars in compensation for their Dalkon Shield injuries.
-
She staffed a non-profit help line that assisted
injured individuals.
-
In 1982, a car accident left her with a "moderate"
brain injury; there was no visible wound, but she was experiencing pain,
memory loss, disorientation, visual, sleep and mood disorders.
-
Most physicians told people who were having
such symptoms after accidents that they were imagining them.
-
Upon receiving such a diagnosis from her doctor;
Miller went into research mode and uncovered the secrets of the changes
she recognized in herself.
-
She applied what she learned from her brain
injury research and her activism to selecting her doctors and lawyers.
-
Such deliberate and pragmatic partnering led
to effective, client-centered rehabilitation program and a gratifying resolution
for her injury claim.
Most recently she has assisted in the development of diagnostic and treatment
guidelines on Concussion in Sports; for the America Academy of Neurology.
Additionally she helped the National Institutes of Health to draft its
TBI Rehab Consensus Conference Statement; and acted as a consultant to
the Federal Interagency Conference on TBI 2000.
