What we do

Complex Injury Claims

The average value of claims involving complex or catastrophic injuries have increased dramatically in the last decade, far outstripping claims inflation in lower value matters. Claims handling, therefore, must focus on containing costs whilst providing comprehensive and fair compensation and rehabilitation for the injured claimant

Keoghs’ Complex Injury team is one of the most knowledgeable in the market; our dedicated team collectively has accumulated well over 350 man years of experience in this field so we know how to handle these cases. We challenge the convention that complex injury claims take years to settle by proactively driving claims to prompt resolution.

Utilising a claimant-centric approach
Adversarial attitudes just slow the process down and increase costs for all parties so our style, wherever possible, is consensual. We focus on building constructive relationships and having open dialogue with claimants and their advisers from the outset.

Every complex injury case is unique and our handling strategy reflects this - there is no “one size fits all” solution. Our partners are recognised for their hands-on approach and ability to employ innovative tactics for routine issues in order to reach amicable, prompt settlement.

We deal with claims involving all types of complex injury including:

Amputations
Brain injuries
Spinal injuries
Multiple injuries
Chronic pain syndromes (e.g. fibromyalgia and Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome)

The Complex Injury team has relationships with a diverse network of experts including doctors, medical consultants, rehabilitation and care specialists, counsel, engineers, actuaries, etc. Through regular exchange of information we keep abreast of the latest developments and advances in this field.
