A head injury isn't always obvious. Symptoms of a traumatic brain injury (TBI) can take days to appear and may worsen over time, which is why we always recommend getting evaluated by a doctor after any head injury.

Meet Carma Henson!

Carma is a partner at Henson Fuerst, and has spent her career fighting to protect the rights of people who have been hurt, abused, or neglected through no fault of their own. Her practice is focused on handling nursing home abuse and neglect cases—always battling the large corporations that put profits over people, risking the health and safety of our most vulnerable and frail population in order to make a large profit.

Carma is the Immediate Past President of North Carolina Advocates for Justice (NCAJ) and has served as President and Vice President of NCAJ’s Nursing Home Litigation Section. Carma has also served as the Chair of the Nursing Home Litigation Group for the American Association for Justice (AAJ). Outside of work, Carma and her family spend much of their free time with extended family, and love spending as much time as possible at the beach.
