At Boyes Turner we aim to help our severely injured clients achieve their best possible recovery. We do this with rehabilitation.
Where our client has suffered a severe injury caused by an employer, public body or other road user’s negligence we can often obtain rehab funding from the defendant’s insurer. This allows our client’s rehab to get started straight away. Early rehab means better recovery.
In many cases, our early help ensures that rehabilitation follows seamlessly from the client’s acute NHS hospital care, building on the healing that has already begun.
Our clients deserve the best chance of recovery. Every small improvement that they gain from rehab gives them greater benefit and maximises their recovery. Small gains in function make a big difference after a devastating injury. For some, this means access to therapies to improve mobility, speech and cognitive function, overcoming isolation and dependence by using assistive technology to communicate with others, learn, access education, work or enjoy hobbies and entertainment. It can provide greater independence with adapted vehicles, specialist wheelchairs or custom-made prosthetics. It might allow the client to live independently in adapted accommodation with the guarantee of care and support.
Once our client’s rehab is underway, we are in a stronger position to secure compensation to cover future rehab costs to improve every aspect of their life, based on a realistic assessment of their abilities and lifelong needs. Rehabilitation is not a substitute for compensation.
Most of our clients and their families will be experiencing the devastation of sudden, severe injury for the first time. The sooner we are instructed after the accident, the sooner we can begin to support our client families and make a lasting difference.
In the worrying times which follow tragic accidents, Boyes Turner’s serious injury lawyers have the experience and skills to take swift action when it matters and make it count for our clients. This combination of experience, compassion and action is the key to our success in claims for serious personal injury compensation.
