    Serious and Catastrophic Injury Claim Types

    Your serious injury may have occurred while you were working from height at work, when you were involved in a serious head-on collision, or while you were receiving substandard medical treatment. There is no comprehensive and exhaustive list of serious injuries as there are so many different ways in which you can sustain an injury or illness. Below are some of the more common kinds of injuries that are often classed as serious or catastrophic.

    AMPUTATIONS

    Amputation claims are the kind requiring the skill and expertise of a qualified personal injury lawyer. A trained eye will be needed to assess the level of compensation essential for you to live as independent a life as possible. A lot of amputees will need specialist care for the rest of their lives so it is important to consider the future and all implications in an amputation claim.

    BRAIN INJURIES

    There are two kinds of brain injury: acquired brain injury and traumatic brain injury. An Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) happens when there is damage to the brain caused by. A Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is caused by direct trauma to the head e.g. from a high impact car collision or a blunt instrument being struck on the head. If you have acquired your injury because of someone else’s negligence, you might be able to claim brain injury compensation.

    BRAIN INJURIES AND CHILDREN

    Injuries to children are particularly distressing and the impact of a brain injury can often only add to that distress. Sadly, some child brain injury claims can arise because someone has been negligent in delivering care.

    CHRONIC PAIN INJURIES

    Chronic pain injury is a debilitating condition that affects millions of people in the UK. It can also be referred to as Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CPRS) and can sometimes occur following an accident. If you are suffering from chronic pain following an accident that wasn’t your fault, you might have cause to make a chronic pain injury claim.

    HEAD INJURIES

    head injury is something that can be very serious, causing life-shattering injuries to victims and/or their families. However, they are not always this serious, and can sometimes cause a minor or temporary condition. No matter how severe your head injury is, if you have suffered then you have a legal entitlement to make a head injury claim.

    SPINAL CORD INJURIES

    Whatever the reason for your spinal cord injury, if the accident was not your fault, you could be entitled to make a compensation claim.

    FATAL ACCIDENTS

    fatal accident claim will consider the level of pain and suffering that has taken place between injury and death. It will also consider financial losses during this period.
