What is Brain Injury?

Brain injury can be a devastating disability, and given the brain’s complexity and the differences in the types, locations, and extent of damage, the effects of a brain injury can be wide and varied. Some occur immediately, and some may take days or even years to appear.

The most common after effects of undiagnosed concussion and head trauma are memory issues, drug and alcohol dependency, anger outbursts family violence,road rage and criminality. Any one of the symptoms can alter or devastate a person’s life, and brain injury is made all the more difficult by the fact that it’s often hard to see and just as often misdiagnosed or dismissed as “personality problems” or a perceived mental disorder. But in fact, it is a serious and legitimate illness where sufferers deserve all the help and support they can get.

The Human Brain

The human brain in an incredible thing! It’s one of the most complex and least understood parts of the human body, but science is making new advances every day that tell us more about the brain.

The average human brain is 5.5 inches wide and 3.6 inches high. When we’re born, our brains weigh about 2 pounds, while the adult brain weighs about 3 pounds.

The brain accounts for about 2% of your total body weight, but it uses 20% of your body’s energy!

It sends out more electrical impulses in one day than all the telephones in the world, and it’s estimated that the brain thinks about 70,000 thoughts in a 24-hour period.

Stacks Goudkamp Testimonials

Here are some recent testimonials from Tom Goudkamp’s satisfied clients:

Dear Ruth and Tom

Firstly, I would like to pay my greatest appreciation to both of you for your effort to make today's experience as smooth and hassle-free as possible.

I don't know whether it was obvious or not but I certainly was quite nervous from the beginning of the day and during the time spent alone in the café waiting.

I am delighted that we managed to achieve a great end result, perhaps what is a very justifiable compensation.

I would like to thank both of you once again, especially Ruth for putting up with me for the last 16 months, for taking me through every step and to overcome what felt like an eternity of physical and psychological agony to achieve what we achieved today.

As I mentioned to you Tom earlier today, I am so glad you rang me 16 months ago and spoke to me to help me understand the initial process of the claim - and that was the deciding moment for me to achieve today's result.

Ruth, I think you're wonderful in many ways. I greatly appreciate your compassion and kind words in your emails when I was struggling to come to terms with my pain and suffering. You really made me believe in you, that you care about your clients and not just treat us like cases and money like some of the lawyers and solicitors I know. I have every faith in you that you will undoubtedly help many more people like me get back to their feet psychologically with your empathetic approach and financially with your legal expertise.

It feels wonderful to not having to worry about what the next step will be....

Have a wonderful week to both of you.

Best regards,

JK

Dear Tom

Thank you for all your efforts.  It makes things easier to cope with when you know that the people handling your personal information are sensitive to your feelings and that you are not just a client but a human being with frailty.

My kindest regards

JB
