Types of Head Injury

Head injuries are any trauma leading to an injury of the scalp, skull, or brain. Visible wounds are an indication of such an injury, but any forceful impact to the head should be investigated to determine if a brain injury has been sustained. Also, it should be monitored carefully, as symptoms can develop hours after the initial injury. There are three main types of head injury:

  • Concussion – the single most common and minor head injury. It is highly important to closely monitor symptoms of a concussion, as any deterioration in condition can signify compression on the brain and lead to a more severe brain injury.
  • Open – normally occurring after pressure or force is applied to the head strong enough to result in fracture or displacement of the skull.
  • Closed – an injury to the head in which the skull does not fracture.

Interim Compensation Payments 

Insurers can agree to give you part of your compensation settlement before the final judgement is reached. Interim Payments are available only when the other side has admitted liability but can be incredibly useful in, for example, paying for private medical treatments, paying for rehabilitation support and equipment, paying for adjustments to be made to accommodation, etc.
