Our client could not return to his previous role at work following his injuries. We succeeded in an agreement to fund his rehabilitation under the Rehabilitation Code. We acted for John, a gentleman who suffered a severe traumatic brain injury following a road traffic incident resulting in significant cognitive decline and a diagnosis of Organic Personality Disorder. Other injuries included a spinal fracture, vestibular dysfunction, deafness in one ear, and a fractured leg.
John made an excellent recovery with the support of privately funded rehabilitation under the Rehabilitation Code but was unable to return to his senior executive role held at the time of the incident due to personality changes and a decline in his memory. The primary issues between the parties concerned John’s likely career trajectory in the absence of the incident, and the diagnosis of Organic Personality Disorder. Considerable efforts were made to obtain supportive witness evidence from former colleagues to prove the career trajectory.
Expert evidence was obtained by both parties from forensic accounts and employment consultants to help narrow the issues and to enable a negotiated settlement for John. His personal injury claim settled for £3.5m following a joint settlement meeting several months before a 10-day trial, listed at the Royal Court of Justice.
We are usually able to offer no win, no fee agreements (also known as Conditional Fee Arrangements (CFAs)) to our personal injury clients. In ‘no win, no fee’ agreements there are no up-front costs for you and if you don’t win, we don’t get paid.

Facial fractures can be distressing injuries to sustain, and can have a negative impact on a person both physically and mentally. Facial fractures include parts of the face such as the nose, cheeks, mouth and jaw, and can be caused in a variety of ways. Most commonly, we see personal injury claims brought for facial fractures after road traffic accidents and accidents in the workplace.
Some facial fractures may cause permanent damage, depending on their severity. While milder fractures may heal without any lasting issues, more traumatic breaks to bones in the face might cause disfigurement and permanent scarring.
Suffering with concussion is a common side effect of head trauma, and can range from mild to moderate or severe. Concussion in terms of personal injury usually relates to someone being involved in a road traffic accident, sporting accident, or sustaining an accidental blow to the head in the workplace.
Making a concussion claim may be the route you choose if you have been left with short or long-term impairment, such as headaches, memory loss, tinnitus, or another concussion-related problem that impacts your daily life.
Like facial fractures and concussion, eye injuries can be the result of a traumatic head injury and can impact a person’s life quite drastically. It can be physically and psychologically damaging if you sustain a severe eye injury, and our experts understand how anyone could feel in this situation.
Being left with visual impairments, such as partial blindness or even full blindness, evidently impacts your life after sustaining your injury. That’s why we will work with you throughout your claim to fully understand the support you’d require ongoing, and make sure we achieve the best possible outcome for you and your family.
In general you have three years from the date of injury or reasonable knowledge of injury to bring a compensation claim. There are some exceptions to this rule for instance where the matter involves a child in which case the child has three years from the date of their 18th birthday to bring a claim, therefore expiring on the individual’s 21st birthday.
It is important to speak to a legal team as early as possible to avoid any issues with limitation dates.
