In this uncertain world, anyone can suffer an unexpected injury. Specifically, traumatic brain injuries, as they can affect individuals of all ages and levels of physical health, often leading to significant impairments in daily functioning. Tasks such as standing, walking, or shifting positions in bed can become daunting challenges for those injured. One way to improve the quality of life for someone with a brain injury is physical therapy. It emerges as a vital intervention for individuals recovering from traumatic brain injuries resulting from falls, car accidents, or other head traumas. In general, the goals of physical therapy include improving muscle function, restoring mobility, strengthening muscles, and relieving pain. This may involve basic movements like standing, balancing, pushing, squatting, walking, and using adaptive equipment to accomplish specific positioning, stretching, and mobility. Not surprisingly, the expenses associated with regular physical therapy sessions can rapidly accumulate, posing a substantial financial burden. At The Mottley Law Firm, we work with our clients to calculate the actual value of brain injury cases. It is not just about immediate expenses like current physical therapy sessions. A fair settlement also includes other economic and non-economic damages, such as reduced quality of life and anticipated future medical costs. We collect evidence, build your case, and increase the settlement amount you ultimately receive. Navigating the challenges of a traumatic brain injury and ensuing impairments is undeniably stressful. The additional concern of covering the costs of necessary physical therapy only adds to this burden. At The Mottley Law Firm, we stand alongside you, working collaboratively to enhance the likelihood of securing equitable compensation and addressing all your medical expenses.

CITRUS BBQ CHICKEN
INGREDIENTS
Inspired by FoodNetwork.com
• 8 skin-on chicken leg and thigh pieces
• 3 cloves garlic, minced • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce • 2 tsp ground cumin • 1 1/2 tsp smoked paprika • Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 1/3 cups ketchup • 2 tbsp brown sugar
• Juice and zest of 1 orange • Juice and zest of 1 lemon
DIRECTIONS
1. Place chicken in a large resealable plastic bag. Combine all other ingredients in a small bowl. 2. Reserve 1 cup of the sauce and add the rest to the plastic bag. Toss to evenly coat the chicken and marinate overnight. 3. In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, add remaining sauce and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer to thicken sauce, about 10 minutes. Set aside. 4. On grill set for medium-high heat, arrange chicken skin side down. Cook until grill marks form, about 4 minutes. Flip chicken, cover grill, and cook until a thermometer inserted into thighs reads 165 F, about 20–25 minutes. 5. Serve with remaining sauce.
