Personal Injury Solicitors
A team committed to getting fair compensation for victims of personal injury
-
Brachers have a dedicated, experienced team of personal injury claims lawyers. We work on a no win, no fee basis for victims of personal injury throughout Kent, Medway, Essex and beyond. We specialise in more serious/complex compensation claims, particularly head injuries, PTSD/psychiatric injury, and fatal accidents. However, we can also deal with most other personal injury claims including amputation injuries, sports injuries, spinal injuries, work accidents and serious road traffic accident claims.
We understand how debilitating personal injuries can often be for both you and your loved ones. As personal injury claims specialists we are passionate and determined to get the best result we can for our clients as quickly as possible.
Our service is about more than just obtaining compensation. Seeking rehabilitation treatment, funded by the insurers, is an essential part of our role to ensure you maximise your potential for recovery.
Recognition of our expertise
As trusted no win no fee personal injury lawyers, you need not worry about the financial risk of claiming and you rest assured knowing we are accredited by the Association of Personal Injuries Lawyers. Our team is also on the approved panel of Headway, the brain injury association.

Amputation injuries
Our dedicated team of experienced lawyers can maximise recovery of compensation for your amputation injury, whilst seeking any rehabilitation treatment you need to help get your life on track. We offer a free no obligation assessment of your amputation injury claim and then a no win, no fee agreement if you have a good claim for compensation for an amputation injury.
At Brachers we appreciate that the loss of a limb can be devastating and life changing, whether it is the loss of a leg, foot, a hand or fingers. We treat each amputation injury client sensitively and according to their individual needs. Whether the injury has arisen due to unsafe work machinery or a serious road traffic accident, you may well be entitled to compensation and we will seek to maximise this for you.
Spinal injuries compensation
A severe spinal injury can have profound and life-long effects on an individual and those close to them. Doing things, once taken for granted, can take a huge amount of effort and help may be needed with everyday tasks. Our experienced team of specialist lawyers understands the practical and emotional impact of spinal injuries and, if someone else is to blame for causing your injury, can help you claim compensation. Our initial goal is to secure your rehabilitation to help restore your quality of life, whilst at the same time pursuing whoever is responsible for the compensation that you deserve for your spinal injuries.
Work accident compensation
Our dedicated team of lawyers have a long and successful track record in obtaining fair compensation for people injured in work accidents throughout Kent, Medway, Essex and beyond, acting on a no win no fee. We have successfully settled many types of work accident compensation claims, including manual handling incidents, defective work equipment, unsafe working environment and injury caused by negligence or even violence of work colleagues, work-related PTSD/depression, trips and slips at work and industrial and occupational diseases (especially asbestos and RSI/WRULD/HAVS).
Serious road traffic accident claims
Our Personal Injury team is highly experienced in handling more serious road traffic accident claims from fractured limbs to fatal road traffic accident claims, catastrophic head and spinal injuries and serious psychiatric injuries, whether as driver, passenger, pedestrian, motorcyclist or cyclist. We no longer take ordinary whiplash claims.
Sports injuries
Brachers has a long successful track record in obtaining compensation for sports injury claims. These can arise perhaps as a result of a reckless tackle that goes beyond the normal accepted risks of the game, the negligence of a coach or from unsafe sports premises or unsafe equipment causing injury to a participant or a spectator. A sports injury may occur in school PE lessons or as part of a training activity for work. Whilst liability is not always easy to establish a duty of care is owed and sometimes sports injury compensation may be obtained.
Faulty product injuries
Brachers has many years of experience obtaining compensation for clients from faulty product injury claims. Our experience with faulty product injury claims includes defective medical implants and defective shopping trolleys, collapsing faulty ladders and dangerously sharp toys.
Holiday accidents
We have a dedicated team of lawyers experienced in handling holiday accident claims and our lawyers have a long successful track record in obtaining injury compensation. If your holiday was supplied as a “package” holiday then the Package Travel Regulations 1992 provide you with the legal rights against the tour operator.
Slip and trip claims
When it comes to slip and trip claims we have an excellent reputation and have obtained compensation for many clients. Whether you trip in the street over a raised paving slab, fall in a hole on public or private property, or slip on a wet supermarket floor, you may be entitled to compensation through a slip and trip claim if you have suffered injury. We can no longer assist with more minor soft tissue injury claims. However, we can still help with more serious slip and trip claims, including fractures, head injuries and spinal injuries.
