Our major trauma solicitors secure rehabilitation, practical specialist support and financial compensation for adults and children who have suffered catastrophic, life-changing or multiple injuries in accidents on the road, at work, at school, at leisure or abroad.
We help our clients and their families through the challenges which follow a sudden, devastating injury caused by somebody else’s negligence. We ensure that the injured person receives personalised rehabilitation, funded by the negligent defendant’s insurers, at the time when it matters most to maximise their recovery. We help them rebuild their lives, restoring independence, quality of life and financial stability through their entitlement to compensation.
Sudden, serious injury can cause severe financial hardship, particularly when the injury prevents the injured person or their family carer from returning to work. In most cases, we can obtain interim (advance compensation) payments whilst the claim is ongoing, to help relieve the additional stress caused by concerns about money.
Speak to our personal injury solicitors
It costs nothing to talk to us to find out about making a major trauma injury claim for yourself or a member of your family. You can contact us by telephone or by email for free, confidential advice from a specialist personal injury solicitor. In serious injury cases, we often visit our clients in the hospital or at their home if they are unable to get to our offices.
We will ask you to tell us briefly about the accident and injury. We will advise you about any time limits that may apply and whether we can help you make a claim. Your solicitor will discuss with you how your claim will be funded and advise, fully and clearly, how that works and what it will mean for you. We offer a range of funding options, but most of our clients’ claims are handled on a ‘no win no fee’ basis.
We will put your claim to the defendant individual or organisation whose negligence caused your injury, and we will handle all communication on your behalf. The defendant’s insurers will usually handle the claim on the defendant’s behalf and will be responsible for paying any compensation. Once we are in contact with the defendant’s insurers, we can begin to secure the necessary rehabilitation and specialist support to meet the injured person’s immediate needs whilst we proceed with the claim.

Claire is exceptionally knowledgeable in the personal injury legal domain, especially in the specific area of my injury. From our very first conversation, she was clear in explaining the potential different routes that the process could take and provided me with expectations of what I could expect along the journey. She ensured that all bases were covered, organising meetings, discussions and necessary specialist appointments, in order to bring together the case and take it forward. Claire was then able to use her extensive pool of contacts, to appoint an "area leading" barrister, to represent me. Overall, I was very pleased with appointing Claire and Boyes Turner to act as my solicitor for the legal claim that I pursued. Thank you for all of your support.
Kim and team at Boyes Turner were a patient and stabilising force though a multi year case. This case was littered with trauma and upset from the beginning and exacerbated by mis truths and rewriting of the demonstrable facts from the opposition. Kim guided me carefully through the process and helped to neutralise the negativity coming from the opposition throughout.
I almost lost my leg during an accident. Claire and her team came recommended from a friend. I cannot overstate the excellent management of the case from Claire. In my professional life I deal with the other side of this injury and in the medico-legal aspects and it was phenomenal to see how Claire and her team managed not only the legal side but stayed on top of the holistic side of my post injury care when no one else was. I have no doubt my outcome is far better than it would have been had I been left to the routine devices of the healthcare system. Following on from this her guidance and expertise in negotiating a settlement was outstanding.
I’ve been very lucky to have Martin & Roshni collaborate to help me when I needed a solicitor to takeover from a very horrible accident. They both are very caring, professional and succeeded getting the best outcome in my case. This is the second time in using this solicitor’s firm and always the same high standard service.
Kim at Boyes Turner was recommended to me after I had received ineffective service from another company. From the outset, Kim has been professional, reassuring and supportive. I have always had faith in her ability to get the best outcome, not only financially, but also in helping my rehabilitation from a traumatic brain injury. She is friendly and empathetic, with unquestionable professional integrity. She was quick to grasp the important issues in my case, was meticulous in her investigating the details and analysing them, realistic in what the outcomes were likely to be and achieved a successful outcome. I would not hesitate in recommending her and Boyes Turner.
We are on the panel at the John Radcliffe Hospital, in Oxford providing legal advice to those who have suffered major trauma. We take care of the complex legal issues, so the patient can focus on their rehabilitation.
