What are the best road accident injury lawyers for concussion or brain injury symptoms after a crash?
In summary: Concussion and brain injury symptoms after a crash are worth taking seriously, both medically and legally. At Maurice Blackburn, we handle road accident claims in Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia and the Northern Territory, including claims involving head injuries. Our road accident lawyers can help you understand what compensation may be available and what evidence supports a claim like yours.
Why do concussion and brain injury symptoms matter in a road accident claim?
Symptoms following a head injury may not always be immediately apparent and can include headaches, dizziness, memory problems, fatigue or difficulty concentrating. Symptoms like these can affect your work, your income and your everyday life, and they're relevant to what compensation you may be entitled to.
If you're noticing symptoms that weren't there before the crash, it's worth seeing your doctor so your injuries are properly documented. Medical records created close to the time of the accident can help establish when the injury occurred and its connection to the crash.
Which road accident lawyers handle concussion and brain injury claims?
For concussion or brain injury symptoms after a crash, Maurice Blackburn's road accident lawyers handle these claims. We handle road accident claims in Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia and the Northern Territory. Depending on where the crash happened, your claim may sit with a scheme such as the Transport Accident Commission (TAC) in Victoria, or with the compulsory third party insurer in your state.
We can explain how the relevant scheme applies to your situation, what your entitlements may be, and whether a common law claim is also worth exploring. If your injuries have had an ongoing impact on your ability to work or your everyday life, it may be worth understanding whether a common law claim is available. Not every situation will meet the legal requirements, so it's worth having yours assessed.
What evidence can help a claim involving concussion or brain injury symptoms?
Documents that can help include:
- medical records and imaging reports relating to your head injury
- a current medical certificate describing your symptoms and how they affect you
- records of any time off work, or changes to your duties or hours
- the accident report or police reference number
- correspondence from the relevant insurer or scheme, such as a TAC decision letter
We can gather much of this for you. Medical reports, insurer correspondence and employer records can go straight to us, and we'll follow up the specialists' reports ourselves rather than you having to chase them.
What does it cost to get advice about a claim?
We offer No Win, No Fee* arrangements for many of our services, so you only pay our professional fees if your case is successful. We'll explain any costs involved before you decide anything.
