What is a brain injury claim?
A brain injury claim is a legal claim made against the party responsible for causing or contributing to a brain injury through negligence. This could be another driver, an employer, a local authority, or a medical professional. A successful claim can secure compensation for the injury itself, loss of earnings, rehabilitation costs, and long-term care needs.
Brain injury claims we can help with
Brain injuries can result from many different types of incident. Whether yours was caused by an accident or a medical failing, our team can assess your situation and advise on whether you have grounds for a claim.
Brain injuries caused by accidents
We help clients pursue brain injury compensation claims following road traffic accidents, workplace accidents, and accidents in public places. If someone else was at fault, whether that’s another driver, an employer, or a local authority, we will work to hold them accountable and secure the compensation you need.
Brain injury medical negligence
When a brain injury is caused or made worse by a failure in medical care, you may have grounds for a brain injury medical negligence claim. This includes cases involving misdiagnosis, delayed treatment, surgical errors, and inadequate monitoring. We have experience handling these claims against both NHS trusts and private healthcare providers.
Brain injuries in children
Brain injuries sustained during birth or childhood can have lifelong consequences for the whole family. Our solicitors have experience handling brain injury compensation claims on behalf of children, working closely with families to secure rehabilitation support and long-term financial provision.
Rehabilitation support during your claim
In brain injury cases, we work with specialist rehabilitation consultants to arrange assessments and put the right support in place as your case progresses. We don’t wait for it to settle first. Where interim payments can be secured to fund rehabilitation early, we will pursue them. Getting the right input at the right stage can make a significant difference to your recovery.
Supporting your recovery, not just your claim
A brain injury claim is about more than compensation. We work with medical experts, rehabilitation specialists, and, where needed, our colleagues in the Court of Protection team to make sure the right support is in place at every stage. All of our brain injury claims are handled on a no win, no fee basis.
How brain injury claims work
- Free initial consultation
Get in touch with our brain injury solicitors and we’ll assess your situation honestly. If you have grounds for a claim, we’ll explain your options in plain terms.
- Gathering evidence
We take time at this stage to build as complete a picture as possible, including medical records, expert reports, and witness evidence. Thorough evidence at the outset makes a material difference to the outcome.
- Letter of claim
We notify the responsible party formally. They typically have three months to investigate and respond.
- Negotiation and settlement
Most brain injury claims settle without going to court. We negotiate hard on your behalf to secure the best possible outcome, including early interim payments where finances are a pressing concern.
