The Claims Process
Have you suffered an injury, had a slip, trip or fall or been involved in an accident? If you answered yes to any of these questions, and the incident involved occurred as a result of somebody else’s negligence then there’s a very good chance that you’re entitled to compensation.
The idea of an ‘accident’ can cover a multitude of circumstances, but all accidents have the one thing in common. Whether it’s a road traffic accident, a trip, or a case of medical negligence, an accident will be a traumatic event which has a major effect upon the quality of your life. These major debilitating effects can come in many forms, including emotional and psychological trauma, long term pain and suffering and long or short term physical disablement. In many cases, an accident which causes personal injury will stop you being able to go out and earn a living. In such circumstances, when another party is firmly responsible for your suffering, pain and a severe drop in your quality of life, then there’s absolutely no question that you should be able to make a claim for compensation.
How Much?
The question of how much compensation you’ll receive following an accident is entirely dependent upon the precise details of the accident and your own personal circumstances. In terms of personal injury, for example, there are guidelines relating to particular parts of the body, and the judge considering your case will use these guidelines when calculating your compensation. Other factors to be borne in mind will be miscellaneous, out of pocket expenses such as travel expenses and medical bills and the money you’ve lost thanks to current and future loss of earnings. As each case is unique, the amount of compensation awarded for what might seem like similar accidents may vary widely, but once our personal injury lawyers have taken your details they’ll be able to come up with an estimate of the amount of compensation which might be awarded to you.
