height=\"199\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-9028\" \/>At <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/\">The Injury Lawyers<\/a>, our name says it all &#8211; we are expert injury lawyers.\u00a0 We can proudly say this because we have successfully dealt with thousands of injury claims over many years and have gained a reputation for getting our clients the maximum <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/100-percent-compensation-4u.php\">compensation<\/a> they deserve in the shortest possible time.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>Because we are quality injury lawyers, and I stress that we are ourselves actual injury lawyers (<strong>not some middle man who will pass your claim around to make a fast buck<\/strong>), we can deal with complex injury claims as well as the more straightforward.\u00a0 So, although a lot of our work involves dealing with what we class as straightforward <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/road_traffic_accidents.php\">road traffic accident<\/a> claims, we also deal with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/accidents_at_work.php\">accidents at work<\/a>, accidents in public areas, and other injury claims such as those arising from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/medical-negligence-claims.php\">medical negligence<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Recently I read about a seven-year-old boy who had just been awarded over <strong>\u00a32million in compensation<\/strong> for brain injuries he sustained at birth due to medical negligence.\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-15698332\">BBC news<\/a> has reports that Ciaran Dill of Luton suffered permanent brain injuries when his birth was delayed in 2004.\u00a0 As was heard at Court, Ciaran\u2019s birth was delayed for almost an hour, and as such, he was starved of oxygen.\u00a0 The hospital in question had not been fully focussed on his heart monitor, and Ciaran was left with a devastating and everlasting brain injury which means he will not be able to walk or talk and will require round-the-clock care.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nThe amount of compensation in Ciaran\u2019s case may seem high &#8211; compared to other injury claims, it is.\u00a0 But what you have to consider are the circumstances.\u00a0 <strong>You are entitled to claim for the injuries you have suffered and any related losses<\/strong>.\u00a0 In Ciaran\u2019s case, it was noted that Ciaran would require 24 hour care for the rest of his life and so a lot of the \u00a32.1million he received was intended to allow for payment of this care which will be needed for many years to come.\u00a0 Not only was Ciaran\u2019s injury particularly serious, but there were substantial related losses which led to a substantial sum being awarded.<\/p>\n<p>At The Injury Lawyers we have dealt with numerous medical negligence claims.\u00a0 It is important to know from the offset that such claims generally do take time given the often complex nature of the facts and events of the matter.\u00a0 But you can rest assured that we at The Injury Lawyers will do all we can to get you the maximum compensation you deserve in the shortest time possible and will keep you up-to-date at least every 14 days in most cases, so you always know what is going on.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a potential medical negligence claim then get in touch with us at <strong>The Injury Lawyers<\/strong> today for some confidential and free legal advice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At The Injury Lawyers, our name says it all &#8211; we are expert injury lawyers.\u00a0 We can proudly say this because we have
