Brain and head injuries

Every year more than 150,000 people in the UK suffer brain damage as a result of a head injury.  Claims Direct can help you claim compensation if this has happened to you.  The law concerning compensation for brain injury is very specialised and we will make sure your lawyer is an expert in this area.

The effects of brain damage

The effects of brain damage can be physical and mental.  Sometimes these effects are minor, but they can be devastating and often life changing.  Marriages can break up, friends can be lost and keeping a job can be difficult if not impossible.

Symptoms of brain damage

It is sometimes difficult to detect a brain injury because they aren’t always as obvious as an injury to a limb.  You can suffer a brain injury without even losing consciousness or hitting your head, for example, if you have whiplash.

Head injuries can cause symptoms hours or days later, so if you are worried, get medical advice.  Symptoms might include headaches, a lack of concentration, depression, dizziness, loss of sense of taste and smell (temporary or permanent).
