Brain Injury Compensation Solicitors Manchester

A brain injury can leave you and your family facing difficult decisions about recovery, care and work. Speak to MWG Solicitors in Manchester about a potential compensation claim, the evidence needed and the support your circumstances may require.

Call 0161 835 2446 or request a conversation with our Personal Injury team.

Compensation that reflects the effect of a brain injury

A claim needs to consider more than the initial hospital treatment. Changes in memory, concentration, fatigue, behaviour or independence can affect work and family life. Tell the team about the day-to-day difficulties, including those that are less visible to other people. MWG can discuss whether another person or organisation may be legally responsible for the injury. Road collisions, workplace incidents and falls can raise different issues, and each claim needs its own investigation.

Evidence, rehabilitation and future support

Medical records, specialist assessments and information from family members can help explain the injury and its consequences. Keep a record of treatment, symptoms, assistance and expenses. A proper assessment may require evidence from experts in rehabilitation, care, employment or accommodation.
  • Rehabilitation and treatment needs, including therapy and equipment.
  • Care, supervision and practical help, whether paid or provided by family.
  • Lost earnings, reduced working capacity and future financial needs.
  • Transport, adaptations and other reasonable injury-related costs.
Any award depends on responsibility, medical evidence and the losses proved. We do not estimate compensation from a diagnosis alone or promise a particular settlement.

Supporting relatives and decisions about the claim

If your relative cannot manage a claim themselves, ask about the arrangements for someone to act on their behalf. Capacity, a litigation friend, court approval and management of compensation may need separate consideration. Being a family member does not automatically give authority to conduct the claim. An interim payment may help meet immediate needs in a suitable case, but it is not automatic. The liability position and legal requirements must be considered before any payment can be obtained.

Discuss your brain injury claim with MWG

Bring any hospital correspondence, accident details and information about your current care or work situation. We can discuss the evidence, likely next steps and funding terms, including whether a conditional fee agreement may be available after assessment. For wider information, see our Personal Injury service and Serious Injury service. Headway provides independent information about legal issues after brain injury.

Brain Injury Questions

You can contact the team to explain the situation. We will discuss consent and whether a litigation friend or other legal arrangement is needed. A relative cannot automatically make decisions for an injured adult.

Reasonable rehabilitation and care costs may form part of a claim where supported by evidence. The type, duration and cost of support need to be assessed.

Explain when symptoms became apparent and seek advice promptly. Medical evidence and the date of knowledge may affect the claim, but you should not assume the deadline has been extended.

A final settlement should be considered alongside the medical prognosis and future needs. Ask for advice before accepting an offer that may end the claim.
