In order to investigate a potential claim, we will obtain medical records and seek advice from independent medical experts.

It is through the expertise of our brain injury solicitors that you can bring the most robust and reliable brain injury claim.

How much does a Brain Injury Claim cost?
Hampson Hughes understands that the legal expenses for a brain injury claim are a major concern for many individuals. We, therefore allow various payment options. A lot of our clients prefer the Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA), known popularly as No Win No Fee model. This is a favourable option as it helps in protecting the financial interests of the client. We can recover most of the expenses from the defendant if we represent you on CFA.
Also, there would be no solicitors’ fee if the claim isn’t successful and you won’t be left with huge legal bills to cover. Offering the No Win, No Fee model shows how committed and confident our team of brain injury solicitors are here at Hampson Hughes for each and every claim we agree to take on.
If you have an active insurance policy or trade union membership that can cover you for legal expenses of a brain injury compensation claim, we assist you to utilise it. We know that brain injury impacts can be a serious burden on your life that directly affects your financial sources. Our solicitors therefore provide guidance on the ideal payment option while considering the circumstances of your case.
What is the time limit on Brain Injury Claims?
- Brain injury compensation must be claimed within 3 years of when the incident occurred, or when the patient first became aware of the negligence that caused a brain injury.
- Children have 3 years from the date of their 18th birthday to pursue a compensation (up until their 21st birthday). Although a suitable adult can bring the claim on their behalf before they reach their majority.
- Special rules may apply if the Claimant lacks mental incapacity and they may be allowed longer than normal – this is a very complex area though so we strongly urge you to contact us for expert advice without further delay if you feel this applies to you and a loved one’s case.
We do advise close family members to consider whether they can be the trusted person to claim on behalf of those patients who are mentally incapable, or too young. This can help a lot, considering the serious and often ongoing impacts of a brain injury on the life of a patient and their loved ones.
Please reach our brain injury lawyers by phone or email as soon as possible when you realise that negligence has contributed to brain injury.
