Find out how to make a brain injury claim
Brain injuries can cause long-lasting problems that affect every aspect of life.
They can be life changing and, in the most severe cases, mean you need looking after for the rest of your life.
If you’ve been injured in an accident on the road as a:
- pedestrian,
- bike or motorbike,
- serious car accident,
- at work,
- on the street or somewhere else,
you may be able to make a brain injury claim against the other party responsible for causing your injury.
Prepare for making a claim
It’s important to understand how to prove your case before making a claim. This includes gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and preparing expert testimony. If you are not well enough to deal with all this yourself, don’t worry as often a friend or relative can step in to help.
Know Your Rights
If you’ve been injured by another person’s negligence, you need to know your rights. You also need to understand what you need to prove in order to win compensation.
Don’t Neglect Documentation
It’s important to keep documentation of everything that happened during the accident. This includes witness statements, police reports, medical records, and any other evidence that might help your case.
Start your Claim as soon as you can
If you claim early enough, you are likely receive compensation sooner than if you wait until later. Another reason to claim early is so that you do not miss anything or memories fade and evidence disappears that you need to rely on.
What is the usual brain injury claim amount?
That depends on how serious your brain injury is.
Your Solicitor will obtain a medical report and based on that will decide how much your brain injury claim is worth.
