Brain injury

We know that going through a brain injury claim can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re already coping with the physical and emotional toll of your injury. That’s why we place a strong emphasis on getting to know you and building a relationship of trust.

You’ll work directly with a solicitor who will take the time to explain every step of the legal process in a way that’s easy to understand, and we’ll always be on hand to answer any questions or concerns you might have.

Handling brain injury claims requires more than just legal expertise. It involves pulling together a team of professionals who can fully assess the scope of your injury and ensure that your compensation reflects every aspect of your needs, now and in the future.

We work closely with a trusted network of experts, including:

• Medical professionals who specialise in brain injuries and can provide detailed, evidence-based reports on the extent of your injury, your long-term prognosis, and the care and treatment you will need.
• Case managers who coordinate your care and ensure that you have access to the right rehabilitation, therapy, and support services. They work alongside your medical team to create a structured plan for your recovery and ongoing care.
• Barristers who are skilled in brain injury cases and can provide specialist advice on court proceedings if your case needs to go to trial. While most claims are settled outside of court, we ensure you’re fully prepared should litigation be necessary.

Securing the right compensation isn’t just about covering the immediate costs. It’s about making sure you’re supported for the rest of your life. Brain injuries often require long-term or even lifelong care, and our goal is to make sure that your compensation considers everything you may need – from medical treatments and rehabilitation to adaptations in your home or workplace.

We also focus on securing interim payments where possible, so you can access funds to cover essential care and treatment while your claim is still ongoing. This way, you don’t have to wait for the final settlement to start receiving the support you need.

We understand that legal costs can be a concern, especially when you’re already facing significant financial pressures due to your injury. That’s why we offer No Win, No Fee agreements and other flexible funding options.

This means you can pursue your claim without worrying about upfront costs or legal fees, giving you peace of mind that finances won’t stand in the way of getting the compensation you deserve.

We approach every case with the sensitivity it deserves. We know that brain injuries can not only affect your health but also your emotional well-being and your ability to manage day-to-day life. That’s why we take a compassionate approach, offering clear, supportive communication throughout your claim.

Whether it’s helping you understand the next steps or keeping you updated on the progress of your case, we’re always here to make things easier for you.

We believe that a well-organised and efficient approach is key to a successful brain injury claim. From gathering evidence to dealing with the defendant’s insurers and securing interim payments, we take care of everything for you.

We are skilled at managing even the most complex claims, ensuring all paperwork is meticulously handled, deadlines are met, and no details are overlooked.

We know that brain injuries can result in immediate financial pressures, especially when medical bills and care needs start to mount up. Wherever possible, we work to secure interim payments during your claim.

These payments are designed to provide financial support while we continue to pursue the full compensation you deserve. This way, you can focus on your recovery without worrying about money for urgent treatments or rehabilitation.

Our service doesn’t end when your claim is settled. We care about your long-term well-being and remain committed to ensuring that you have the support and resources you need, long after the legal process is over.

From helping you access continuing medical care to advising on future financial planning, we are here to help you rebuild your life.
