The Law Society of England and Wales has warned the people who have suffered a brain injury as a result of a personal injury accident may lose out on vital funds if they do not consult an appropriately qualified solicitor.
Research from the Financial Services Authority revealed personal injury claimants who turned down an insurer’s initial offer and took legal advice from a solicitor received, on average, almost three times more compensation.
Brain injury claims are especially complex, resulting in serious debilitating injuries that man mean a loss of earnings and an inability to lead a normal life, with some requiring round-the -clock care.
Law Society chief executive Desmond Hudson said:
“’People who suffer brain or spinal damage in many cases are not able to work. Some require round-the-clock care. It is absolutely vital that they get the compensation they deserve in order to pay for the support and care they may need, for months, years or lifetimes.’
