Personal injury
Our expert personal injury lawyers specialise in helping people who have suffered catastrophic or severe injury as a result of accidents, negligence or unsafe working conditions.
Kim Milan is the Senior Partner and head of Boyes Turner’s highly regarded personal injury team. Kim is recognised as a leading personal injury lawyer by Chambers UK Legal Guide and Legal 500 and is a specialist in catastrophic injury cases and rehabilitation, acting for clients with acquired brain injury, spinal cord injury, amputation and major trauma.
Kim has over 30 years’ experience of successfully securing high-value compensation and rehabilitation to rebuild the lives of drivers, passengers and pedestrians who have been severely injured in road collisions in the UK and abroad, for people injured at work, and for children and adults injured in schools and public facilities. She acts for teenagers and young people in complex and sensitive cases involving family and friends or contributory negligence. She also provides support and swift results for the bereaved, dependent families of those who have been fatally injured, and for the severely injured victims of hit and run drivers, and criminal attacks and assaults.
As a major trauma specialist personal injury solicitor supporting children and adults affected by life-changing injuries, Kim has seen first-hand how early rehabilitation can transform recovery. Kim works quickly to secure Rehabilitation Code funding and/or interim payments for specialist case management, care, therapy, equipment and suitable accommodation, ensuring that her clients can begin their rehabilitation as soon as possible. In many cases, her priority focus and early collaboration with the defendant’s insurers enables her client’s rehabilitation to begin seamlessly on discharge from their acute trauma hospital care.
With sensitivity, determination, and an impressive track record of proven expertise, Kim guides and supports her injured clients and their families through the complexities of serious injury recovery and rehabilitation, ensuring that her clients achieve the best possible recovery outcomes as well as maximum compensation from their personal injury claim.
Kim’s dedicated leadership of Boyes Turner’s top-rated personal injury team has earned them consistent recognition by Chambers and Legal 500, as leading experts in personal injury claims and rehabilitation for injured claimants.
