The Group was set up to help families who need legal assistance; CBIT is working BIBIC www.bibic.org.uk and h 5 specialist law firms who have formed themselves together under the title of “The Child Brain Injury Legal Group”.
The Child Brain Injury Legal Group comprises some of the country's leading law firms who have a national reputation specialising in personal injury and clinical negligence. Most importantly the members of the Group have great experience working on behalf of children with brain and other serious injuries.
The Legal Group collectively offers a proven track record of obtaining successful outcomes coupled with high levels of compensation for children with brain or other serious injuries. It is vital that anyone who suffers a severe injury is represented by specialists who can maximise the potential of his or her claim. In some cases it can mean the difference of many tens if not hundreds of thousands of pounds in compensation. This is crucial to ensuring that the correct needs of anyone who has suffered serious injuries are accounted for and in particular when it comes to children with brain injuries.
CBIT knows from years of experience in dealing with concerned families, how important it is that quality information is available at the right time. Whilst not all families with a brain injured child will need this service or wish to pursue this route, those that do, need to have the very best possible legal advice. Having a child with brain injuries can cause many stresses and strains within a family so employing lawyers with real expertise in the field is crucial to lightening the family's load.
The relationship entered into by cbit with the Legal Group is that cbit will make this service available through its website and outlets and in return the legal firms have agreed to give CBIT an annual sizable donation. In this way, CBIT have been able to ensure that the Legal Group is not just assisting those with legal claims but also the core work of the organisation. Families can be reassured that this donation is not reliant on a set number of referrals and is therefore completely transparent. Many of these organisations traditionally support charities through donation programmes and they have agreed collectively that they can make more of a difference by pooling resources and supporting charities that support the sort of families they work with and for.
The arrangement between BIBIC and the Legal Group is operated in accordance with the Solicitors Introduction and Referral Code 1990. It should be made clear that those needing legal advice are totally at liberty to choose another solicitor to advise them in relation to their case and a suitable solicitor may be identified by contacting the Law Society.
