Cerebral palsy claims: securing lifelong care and support for your child

Expert legal support for complex cases

At Tees, we understand how cerebral palsy can affect every part of a family’s life. Every claim is different — and we approach each one with compassion, attention to detail and deep legal expertise. Our team has successfully handled some of the most complex claims, including those that other firms have turned away.

Help when and where you need it

Caring for a child with cerebral palsy is demanding and we’ll do our best to ease that burden. We can visit you at home if needed, and help secure interim payments to cover urgent needs like care, therapy, or specialist equipment while your claim progresses.

A step towards answers and security

A claim can help you find out what went wrong, and hold those responsible to account. It can also provide financial security for your child’s future — helping to fund the right care, support, and opportunities for the rest of their life.

We could not fault the service provided by the whole team at Tees. Responsive, supportive and extremely professional throughout and the success in the case and the justice achieved was what we wanted.

Our experience in cerebral palsy malpractice claims

Every cerebral palsy claim is unique. No two children, or families, are affected the same way. Tees has the expertise and dedication to handle the most complex cerebral palsy claims sensitively and effectively. We regularly take on, and win, cases other cerebral palsy solicitors have turned down.

Many families contact us because their child was starved of oxygen at birth which caused a brain injury. This may also be called oxygen deprivation, hypoxia or anoxia. Oxygen deprivation can cause mild to severe cerebral palsy. It’s one of the most litigated types of birth injury – partly because the effects can be se serious, and last a lifetime.

I have been told my property has development potential. What do I do?

If you’ve been contacted by a developer or a land promoter regarding a potential development to your property, you may wish to consider granting an option agreement or a promotion agreement. An option agreement is made between the landowner and the developer, where it is intended that the developer will apply for planning permission and requires an option to buy the property. A land promotion agreement is used where a developer agrees to apply for planning permission and will market the property for sale on the open market once planning permission has been obtained. This is usually in return for a proportion of the net sale proceeds. The law on this is very complex and you will need specialist advice.
