Can you claim compensation for a Brain Injury?​

Yes, you can claim compensation on behalf of a child who has suffered a serious injury due to someone else’s negligence. Whether the injury occurred in a road traffic accident, at school, in a public place, or as a result of medical negligence, a parent or legal guardian can act as a “litigation friend” to represent the child in legal proceedings.

Compensation can help cover the cost of medical treatment, rehabilitation, specialist equipment, ongoing care, and the long-term impact on the child’s quality of life.

The claim must usually be made before the child turns 18, although they have until their 21st birthday to bring a claim themselves if no action was taken earlier.
