£500,000.00 head injury compensation after pedestrian is knocked down - Mr Wilkins suffered a serious head injury when he was knocked down while crossing the road in Derbyshire. There were problems in the case because he had been drinking (the accident happened in the early hours of New Years' Day). We prepared our client's case for trial and eventually helped him recover over £500,000.00 in compensation. (The name of our client has been changed).
£450,000.00 head injury compensation for injured farm worker - Mr Jamieson was working on the roof of a farm building in North Devon and suffered a serious head injury. There was no proper working platform and he hadn't been given any proper training. We took on his claim against the insurers for the farm and quickly proved that they were responsible for the accident. We then gathered all the expert medical evidence and helped our client reach a settlement of over £450,000.00.
£600,000.00 head injury compensation for young man who fell from window of a council house - Mr Larkin suffered a serious head injury after falling from the bedroom window of a council house in Gtr Manchester when he was just a toddler. The case was very difficult because there were arguments about the safety of the windows and allegations of lack of supervision by his parents. The family were initially represented by non-specialist lawyers who weren't getting anywhere with the case, so we agreed to take over the claim and helped our client to recover over £600,000.00 in compensation.
(The names of our clients have been changed).
The effects of a serious head injury can be devastating, not just for the injured person, but for their family, friends and colleagues too.
And unfortunately, serious head injuries (often involving brain damage) are all too common - Every year in the UK over 25,000 people suffer a head injury which is classified as moderate or severe.
Our specialist lawyers have been handling serious head injury cases for many years. We understand the dramatic impact of a serious head injury and our team deal with clients very sensitively. We have dealt with serious head and brain injuries arising from accidents at work, car accidents, motorcycle accidents and other accidents. We have held the Law Society's LEXCEL quality mark since 2002 and we have solicitors who are on the Law Society's Personal Injury Panel
There can be many permanent symptoms from a serious head injury including things like constant pain - seizures - muscle spasms - headaches - vision impairment - balance problems - loss of smell - loss of taste - speech difficulties - fatigue - memory loss - poor judgment - inability to concentrate - difficulty communicating - anxiety - depression and mood swings - impulsive behaviour.
How much can be claimed?
The amount of compensation awarded for a head injury claim can be much higher than an average injury compensation claim.
The amount awarded must take into account things like:-
- Compensation for the pain and suffering the person has endured and will endure in the future
- Loss of earnings to the date of any settlement
- Any future loss of earnings
- Rehabilitation and treatment costs, such as:
o nursing care
o specialist equipment
o transport costs
o the cost of any necessary modifications to the home.
