What Is a Brain Injury Claim?

A brain injury claim is the legal process of seeking compensation for damage caused to the brain following an accident or medical negligence. These injuries can range from mild concussions to severe traumatic brain injuries (TBI), often leading to long-term physical, emotional, and cognitive challenges.

Whether your injury happened on Limerick's roads, in a workplace accident, or during a medical procedure, you may be entitled to claim for your medical treatment, lost income, ongoing rehabilitation, and the emotional toll the injury has caused.

Common Causes of Brain Injuries

Brain injuries can occur in many different circumstances, including:

  • Road traffic accidents in Limerick and across Ireland (cars, motorbikes, cyclists, or pedestrians)
  • Workplace accidents (such as falls from height, faulty machinery, or falling objects)
  • Slips, trips, and falls in public or private spaces
  • Assaults or violent incidents
  • Sports-related accidents
  • Medical negligence (including surgical errors or mistakes during childbirth)

Even if your injury seemed minor at first, brain injuries can worsen over time. Let us help you understand your rights and pursue your claim for full compensation.

The legal term ‘No Win No Fee’ is used to describe how solicitors take on a case where they pay the costs of the litigation.

Solicitors in who operate on this basis pay all legal costs associated with the personal injury case.

In the vast majority of cases, clients would not be in a position to fund the cost of litigation and therefore it is usual for a specialised Personal Injury/Medical and Dental Negligence law firm to operate on a ‘No Win No Fee’ basis.

It should be noted that there is no prohibition on solicitors in undertaking work on a no win no fee basis, and solicitors are perfectly entitled to offer their services on a no win no fee basis.
