What our clients say...

We found that the help and advice offered by Irwin Mitchell's client liaison service has been vitally important at a time when we all really needed support.  It has been accurate and professional but, above all, shown a genuine understanding and concern for our feelings during a very difficult time and has enabled us, as a family, to cope so much better than we could have done on our own.

Military Head Injury Claims

If you have suffered a military head injury whilst serving in the Armed Forces, you may be entitled to claim compensation. We have a team of specialist solicitors who are experts in handling head and brain injury claims for military personnel who may have been injured either on or off duty. We can put you in touch with the right solicitor for your case, giving you the best possible help and support for your armed forces injury claim.

Treatment and care after brain injury

Service in the army, Royal Navy or Royal Air Force can give rise to the most severe and traumatic injuries, but not every situation in which a serious injury occurs can give rise to a claim. We recognise that the needs of armed forces personnel require careful handling and sensitivity and we understand the particular challenges that are faced by serving and ex-service personnel. Early medical care after serious head injuries in the Armed Forces is often first rate, and specialised rehabilitation services are available to very severely injured personnel who require ongoing therapy and support. However in the longer term, after discharge from specialist military medical units, it is all the more important to know how to access the right care and support in the community and that is where we come in.

Our expertise in military head injury claims

Our service is second to none in combining our expertise in military claims with our sensitivity and expertise in supporting clients after head injury. We provide a specialist service aimed at helping service personnel after head or brain injuries, whether injured on or off duty. As well as giving you early legal advice about the prospects of pursuing a claim against the Ministry of Defence (MOD), we can look into helping you with accessing the right kind of rehabilitation and support for your needs after head or brain injury.

Campaigning for better care and support

We have campaigned for improvements in support for Armed Forces personnel, supporting for example Lance Corporal Ben Parkinson in his successful fight for improvements in the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme. We firmly support service personnel in seeking a fair deal to help adjust to life after a severe injury in the Armed Forces.

Contact us today

If you have suffered from head or brain injuries and feel that there is a case to answer (either on duty, or away from duty such as when you are a road user) contact us as soon as possible for sensitive advice – this will enhance your chances of a successful compensation claim. Even if our head injury lawyers are not able to recommend a claim, we will signpost you in the right direction to ensure that you get the help that you need.
