Overview

In the latest of our Complex Injury Forum series of webinars we focus on minor traumatic brain injuries (mTBI). 2018 saw several important High Court decisions in this area of complex injury claims. Now that the dust has settled on those decisions, Dr Dominic Heaney, consultant neurologist at The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery at Queen Square and UCL Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, joins us to discuss mTBI from a clinical perspective. Chris Eccles, partner at Clyde & Co, who represented the Defendant in Hibberd-Little v Carlton, will chair the talk.

About the Complex Injury Forum

In 2019 we launched a series of live events and webinars giving insurers the opportunity to hear from and put their questions to leading experts in established and emerging areas of complex injury. Each session is chaired by a senior member of our nationally-renowned Catastrophic Injury and Large Loss team.
