        "text": "It is advisable to contact a TBI lawyer as soon as possible after an accident, ideally within a few days or weeks. Early engagement allows the lawyer to preserve crucial evidence, interview witnesses while memories are fresh, and ensure all necessary medical evaluations are conducted. Waiting too long can complicate the gathering of evidence and may impact your claim's strength, especially considering California's statute of limitations for personal injury cases.",
