Brain Injury Medical Accident Claims
If you are looking for solicitors who are experienced in dealing with brain injury medical accident claims then contact our free helpline for guidance. Phone us in 0333 888 0412 or send brief details of your case to us in an email.
In a medical accident context, brain injuries can arise from physical trauma (often in connection with birth), from infection or from oxygen depletion and/or reduced blood flow to the brain, such as with a stroke.
Brain injury is sometimes a consequence of unexpected complications during unrelated surgery or problems with anaesthesia.
Any clinical care of the brain and its crucial functions demands specialist skill and consequently a high standard is expected of the clinicians, surgeons and doctors involved. When the standard of that medical care falls below acceptable levels and a patient suffers injury as a result then they may be entitled to make a claim for compensation.
Brain damage is not always obvious and may not become apparent (particularly in birth cases) for many months or even years. In adults, a moderate degree of brain damage can often be masked by the patient simply adapting and neither they nor their family may realise for some time that something might be seriously wrong.
If you believe that a medical accident has caused impaired brain function and you would like to know where you stand legally then our Legal 500 recommended team is here to help. We provide free case assessments and can work on a no win no fee basis, which means that there is no need to allow worries about funding legal costs to put you off seeking justice.
You can call our free helpline for legal guidance on making a brain injury medical accident claim on 0333 888 0412. Alternatively, email us details of your case at info@medicalaccidentlawyers,co.uk and we will assess your potential claim.

Here is just a short selection of some of the reviews that our clients have left for our clinical negligence team:
Maddy Lawrence
“With the premature death of our eldest daughter, as it turned out, by clinical negligence, we were facing a very difficult journey both in proving fault and keeping heart and soul together. That we were able to, in terms of the fault element, was down to our professional legal team. They provided clear, calm and compassionate advice which got us through a horrendous inquest and subsequent legal maneuverers. They, in short, were magnificent and we are extremely grateful that we had them on our side.”
Great firm!
“I had an experience with Oliver Thorne who was nothing but helpful with settling my claim. He was very patient and professional as well as making sure I was happy and content throughout the whole process! Would highly recommend him if you’re looking for a solicitor!”
Compassionate, thorough, and outstanding legal support thus far
”Jade was incredibly friendly, taking the time to ask all the right questions and thoroughly investigate our case. Unlike previous solicitors, who dismissed us, Jade and the team at Slee Blackwell delved deeper and gave us renewed hope. We are extremely grateful for the dedication and professionalism in fighting for us. I would recommend Slee Blackwell to anyone in need of legal assistance.”
Mesh claim
“I cannot thank the team enough there understanding and empathy and the knowledge is outstanding. Caroline has been supportive every step of the way, she has informed me and kept me updated how the claim has progressed she has also had great understanding around my mental health and the physical damage I have occurred. I cannot thank the team enough. The team made this experience easier for me to deal with my emotional distress and pain.”
Thank you
“On behalf of all of us, we would like to thank you for your guidance, professionalism, humanity and kindness you have shown us all throughout this process. You have explained everything to us in clear and concise terms throughout and we are extremely grateful. We would have no hesitation recommending you and using your services in future. Thank you.”
Exceptional Service
“I have received expert advice throughout my case, the attention to detail is second to none. Their professional outlook and relatability means that I always recommend the firm. When I was unclear of any information or possible outcomes they took the time to speak with me on a personal level, confirming our conversation through email, I feel supported and understood and most of all they are empathetic, something that is often missing from large firms.”
Friendly, professional, knowledgeable.
“Oliver assisted me in the aftermath of my father’s sudden death in hospital. He helped me to draught my initial letter of complaint to the health authority, represented me and my mother at the inquest and ultimately succeeded in bringing a successful claim. I always felt I could approach Oliver with any questions and he would explain the legal processes in an understandable way. I would not hesitate to recommend him should anyone find themselves in a similar unfortunate position.”
Excellent solicitor
“I cannot recommend this firm highly enough and especially Caroline who is professional approachable and thorough, she works tirelessly and is a real credit to the firm, you are not made to feel like just a number as with other firms, it’s a pleasure to have such an excellent solicitor to represent you when you have gone through so much she is so understanding and knowledgeable.”
