This is a concise guide giving practical advice and reminders to those lawyers dealing with catastrophic brain injuries. The aim is to provide a short guide to help those bringing and defending such claims. A reminder and easy references of the principal points for those who are more experienced, a pathfinder for those who are perhaps just setting out in this area of personal injury perhaps with their first case, finding their way being led in a team.
The book may also prove useful to some medical and treating experts, case managers and other professionals who become involved with severely brain injured people. Finally, the book may help some of the families who have been affected by a member with severe traumatic brain injury to understand some of the principles at work affecting the Claimant's claim.
