Legal Partnerships – JMW

Legal support for you and your family

As part of Brainwave’s ‘whole family’ approach, we are pleased to introduce our legal partnership which aims to provide additional support and guidance to families throughout their journey with Brainwave.

JMW is here to help families who have questions around their rights and want to speak to a specialist legal professional because they are concerned that their child’s disability may have been caused by problems with their medical care.

JMW is ranked as one of the best clinical negligence teams in the country by legal industry guides Chambers and Partners and the Legal 500. Several of JMW’s specialists have achieved the Law Society’s Clinical Negligence Accreditation and the firm has a high rating of 4.6 on independent customer review site Trustpilot.

They specialise in supporting families whose children have suffered a brain injury either from birth or because of something that happened later in their life. Through their experience they understand what families need both at the stage of diagnosis and as their child grows. Having been there for countless families going through similar journeys, they are experts in ensuring the full spectrum of a child’s needs is provided for by securing compensation. JMW can provide no win, no fee agreements or legal aid for any cases they take on*.

However, JMW also has experts specialising in other areas that families may need advice on, including the Court of Protection, power of attorney, wills and trusts, and injuries that were caused by accidents.

JMW are happy to have a free confidential discussion with you, listen to your story and explain how they can use the law to help you and your family.
