Catastrophic Injuries

Anyone with a life-changing injury should have their claim handled by a catastrophic personal injury solicitor who is an expert in the field of recovering damages for injuries of the utmost severity.

When a very serious injury is suffered, there will often be irreversible and life changing damage, such as paralysis, severe traumatic brain damage, amputations, severe burns or even death. Whatever the injury, it is essential that a specialist solicitor is instructed who understands the nature of the injury and the need for proper funding to support care, aids, housing and therapy regimes which must often last a lifetime.

We know that seriously injured clients often need long term treatment, and there can be a significant period of adjustment both for our clients and for their families. Most clients require special housing or adaptations, care and support packages, specialist equipment, and early payments to alleviate financial hardship and to establish fully funded private care regimes.

Our Catastrophic Injury Lawyers can act for clients who have suffered:

• Traumatic Brain Injuries
• Spinal Cord Injuries
• Loss of Upper Limbs
• Loss of Lower Limbs
