Picture this – you are walking home from work along a public footpath, happily listening to your audiobook or music when all of a sudden, your toe hits a rise in the pavement and the next thing you know you are flat on your back, surrounded by the faces of concerned strangers asking if you are OK. Unfortunately, you are not.
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can result in lifelong complications, even if the TBI was relatively moderate. Making a claim for compensation is often essential to not only cover the loss of income due to a patient not being able to work following a TBI, but also to swiftly access and fund rehabilitation.
In February 2023, Karen Bannister, a Personal Injury Lawyer at Nicholson Jones Sutton Solicitors with extensive experience in complex, catastrophic personal injury claims, successfully secured a £1.9 million settlement for a client who suffered a below-knee amputation following a motorcycle accident in September 2020. Karen instructed barristers Chris Barnes KC and David McCormick, who both played an instrumental role in obtaining such a positive result.
Suppose you or your loved one have suffered a catastrophic injury and believe it was caused by another person, business, or public body’s negligent acts (or failure to act). In such a situation, you need the support of an experienced Personal Injury Solicitor who has an in-depth understanding of the legal issues involved and how to support early access to rehabilitation.

What is classed as an accident at work?
An accident at work is any accident which causes physical injuries or illness as a result of the employer’s negligence.
We never think it will happen to us until it does. It doesn’t matter how well you drive, or how safe you are, even the most skilled drivers can find themselves in an accident. But if you or a loved one have been injured through no fault of your own, then you may be entitled to compensation.
