The most common causes of traumatic brain injury are road traffic accidents, sports and work accidents, assaults and falls.
Every year around 1.4 million people in the UK go to hospital after a brain injury. 4,500 will require full time care for the rest of their lives.
Compensation culture – a media myth
There has been much talk of a growing "compensation culture" in the papers and on the radio and TV but there is little evidence to show that this is actually the case.
We firmly believe that it is wrong and indeed immoral to bring a claim against an individual or organisation that is not genuine. Our review and screening procedures ensure that once the facts are properly known only those cases that are genuine are brought forward as claims.
Bringing a claim will help you to recover and ease your financial burdens
Bringing a claim will ensure accountability of the person or organisation responsible for your injury. This will help prevent the same mistake from happening again. It will also secure the payment of compensation. This is important especially in more complex cases and where long term specialist care and assistance is required. This can be expensive and establishing a claim means that individuals and their families will not have to struggle financially to cope with the resulting injury.
Following a detailed investigation a decision can be taken about whether or not a claim can be made and its likelihood of success.
