Working with leading brain injury associations
We are proud to support and be approved lawyers for several leading brain injury associations, including Headway, Headway East London and The Brain Injury Group. Inclusion in their directories of trusted solicitors is very important to us. It means they recognise our lawyers are specialist brain injury lawyers and that we have demonstrated our commitment to making a positive impact for people who are dealing with an acute brain injury that goes beyond financial compensation.

What to expect from your lawyer
Once our medical negligence lawyers have established that you have suffered negligent care, our objective is to ensure you receive the best ongoing medical treatment and therapies. Because of the lasting impact of brain injuries, we also focus on making sure you are compensated for the full extent of your losses, securing early payments throughout your case. This means you will not have to worry about paying for your care on top of everything else you and your family are going through.
