Head and brain injury claim
An injury to your brain or skull could occur in any number of ways, but most often they are caused by road traffic accidents. The impact of hitting or being hit by another car can force your head to move in unnatural ways.
This, coupled with the often violent and abrupt way your head is then stopped by an airbag or other part of the car, can cause tremendous trauma to your head and brain. Even if your head appears unharmed, your brain may have sustained an internal injury.
A road accident can be even worse if you’re a cyclist, as you have less protection from vehicles and the road, leaving you vulnerable to more severe head injuries. It’s essential, as a bike rider, to always wear protective clothing, including a helmet, to try and limit the likelihood of sustaining a head or brain injury.
There are other ways that a head injury could occur, affecting your skull or brain. Broken pavements or paving slabs can cause a fall or trip and can result in impact to the head. Injury can be caused by an assault.
Even minor collisions or falls can cause a head injury or cuts and bruising. The type of impact sustained will determine the level of compensation awarded to you.
