Psychiatric Injuries
If you have been involved in an accident then along with any physical injuries you may also have suffered psychiatric injury. In most cases the effect is short lived but in the most serious cases the consequences of a psychiatric injury can be debilitating and last for years.
We never cease to be surprised by the range of psychological responses exhibited by different people. At one end of the extreme we have had a Client who could happily sit down and talk about watching a fully laden Tipper Lorry drive over his pelvis and legs without batting an eyelid! At the other end of the extreme we had a Client who, having narrowly missed being struck by a piece of metal that fell off a crane, had a major break down and depressive disorder.
The fact is that psychological injuries although “invisible” can be just as bad as or even worse than broken bones. Those who suffer adverse psychological reactions need to be treated sympathetically and quickly - otherwise the symptoms can become entrenched and harder to tackle.
We have a track record of helping victims of psychiatric injuries recover from trauma by arranging appropriate treatment as well as securing substantial compensation for them
