Making a brain injury claim with personal injury solicitors Bolton

If you've suffered a traumatic brain injury in an accident or incident you were not entirely to blame for, then claiming compensation with a no win no fee solicitor Bolton is a great way to recover your losses and help you get your life back on track. 

Brain injuries can affect every aspect of a person's life, and the cost of rehabilitation and high-quality medical equipment can be prohibitively expensive, but personal injury solicitors Bolton can help people cover these expenses.

Recovery and brain injuries

While recovery is possible for many claimants, it can take a very long time for people to make a full recovery, with other people never returning to health. Generally, children have the best prognosis, and the elderly have the worst - children's brains have a degree of 'elasticity' that adult brains lack, and children can use other parts of the brain to perform the tasks the damaged part would otherwise perform.

Recovery can involve physical therapy, speech therapy and intensive psychological assistance, and many people are unable to pay for this. 

Speaking to a no win no fee solicitor Bolton allows them to do so.

Personal injury solicitors Bolton also consider the long-term prognosis of a claimant. People with brain injuries can develop neuron degenerative disorders and are at a higher risk of a range of health problems. New medical treatments or forms of supportive therapy for people with brain damage could also be created in the future, and compensation claims consider the potential cost of these treatments as well.

The effects of brain injuries

No win no fee solicitors Bolton see three different types of damage that brain injuries can cause. These are:

-          Cognitive effects

Some brain injuries affect the way people remember, think and learn, altering the way they perveive the world and making certain tasks difficult.

-          Emotional effects

People can experience problems with their emotions or personality changes when specific regions of the brain are damaged.

-          Communication effects

Some parts of the brain relate to recognising facial expressions, following conversations and speech, and damage to these areas can make it hard for people to communicate.
