Severe Injuries
Experts in Severe Injuries
If you, or a family member, have suffered a brain, head or spinal cord injury or are adjusting to life after an amputation following an injury, then you will need legal advice to enable you to bring a severe injury claim for financial compensation.
Our approach to severe injury compensation claims
Whilst compensation is integral to providing the best quality of life for those affected by a severe injury, we appreciate that this is not always enough. Rehabilitation, aids, equipment and medical treatment are all key in helping someone with a serious injury return, as much as possible, to independent living.
Our role does not end once you have received your compensation. It extends to help with the rehabilitation process by providing access to all the support groups needed to adjust to your new life.

Our dedicated Serious Injury Group solicitors operate in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Sheffield, Cardiff and Edinburgh and can offer immediate and accessible representation anywhere in the UK.
Severe Injury Support Groups
Our Serious Injury Group is proud to support the work done by Headway, the Spinal Injuries Association and the Limbless Association.
Interim payments for severe injuries
If the defendant’s insurers have accepted liability then we are usually able to arrange substantial interim payments to ease any financial pressure that you are facing. This means you will get some money before your case is settled to help you with rehabilitation, aids and equipment, income replacement and other expenses.
Additional severe injury claims information
We have also created a number of free expert guides on issues that you may need more information on such as case management, the Mental Capacity Act and Deputyship.
Our expert solicitors are also able to advise you if you wish to bring a claim for a fatal accident or require representation at an inquest.
