After my accident where the bike fell over on the left side and scratched up the left tiagra brake hood and lever, whenever I pull the brake lever now, I can feel a distinct notch halfway, does anyone know what could possibly cause this and if it could be taken care of easily?
(BTW, I searched and couldn't find anything on notchy braking).

Something internal might have been bent or the lever itself is slightly bent and is catching on something.
