Traumatic Brain Injuries are caused by an accident or physical injury, which can include:
• Accidents on construction/building sites
• Accidents at work
• Factory & Warehouse accidents
• Serious road traffic accidents
• Errors during a medical procedure, like surgery
“Acquired” brain injuries are usually due to negligence during either pregnancy or birth, which is more of a medical negligence matter, and affect children who are born with cerebral palsy.
Non traumatic brain injuries happen during a Stoke, Cancer, Infections, hypoxia and substances such as drugs and poisoning.
Late diagnosis of these illnesses can cause bleeds on the brain and lack of oxygen to the brain causing the damage.
If you are considering pursuing a claim for compensation for a brain injury, there are many things that you need to consider:
• These types of claims are complicated and are very different from most other personal injury cases. A specialist brain injury solicitor understands these complexities and in particular, will have experience of how such an injury might affect your life in the future. We are also able to identify and recommend the best and most experienced medical and other experts who can prepare reports to assist you with your claim.
• We know that following a brain injury, advice can be difficult to understand, particularly when it is already quite complicated. When advising you, we always take this into account and would encourage you to have someone else present with you – perhaps a family member – when we meet with you. We also ensure that all advice is given to you in writing so that you can ask questions later.
• In our experience, we find that these claims take on average around 4 years to conclude but in severe cases this can be much longer. There are dangers in trying to settle such claims too early. It is essential that you have detailed evidence on how your injury will shape your future and what your future needs will be. Failing to do this is likely to lead to the under-settlement of your claim. We ensure that the necessary reports are obtained from leading experts. Where liability is accepted, we also ask the Defendant to make interim payments to you so that you do not suffer financial hardship during your claim and so that you can cover the cost of aids and equipment.
At NJS Law, we know that a brain injury changes your life. We want to help you to get your life back on track and to ensure that you are provided for in the future. At the earliest possible stage, we will seek to put in place case management and rehabilitation which will ensure your identified needs are dealt with. The goal is to help you to return to independent living and when you are first discharged from hospital this is a massive challenge.
Our assistance extends to:
• Contact with local social services to check the extent of care and therapy being provided and to secure an increase where necessary.
• Checking the adequacy of your accommodation and considering whether adaptations should be sought.
• Considering whether we could find you further assistance through charities or support networks.
• Reviewing benefits to ensure you are receiving all social security payments that you are entitled to.
• Arranging expert help with setting up a personal injury trust which would safeguard your benefits when you receive interim payments or your final compensation settlement.
With the assistance of the very best experts in their fields, we will do all we can to help you to:
We will also of course, secure fair and just compensation for you which will ensure you are provided for in the future. Where appropriate, this might be a lump sum together with index-linked annual payments for a set period, or for life.
