You brothers insurance company will make a claim through the motor insurance bureau, this is was set up by the insurance companies for cases like this, what happens is, all the insurance companies pay money into a pot every year, when accidents like this happen money is taken out of the pot for repairs to vehilcles caused by uninsured drivers. Your brother will be ok on the insurance side of things. The motor insurance bureau will then take him to court to recover some of the money towards the damages caused to you brothers car.
