Common Injuries Suffered in Personal Injuries

Personal injury can lead to a wide range of injuries, from whiplash and back injuries to head and jaw injuries. These accidents can also cause spinal injuries, which are particularly feared due to their potential for paralysis and long-term complications. Some of the more common injuries are:

  1. Whiplash: Common in rear-end collisions, causing neck pain, headaches, and difficulty moving the neck.
  2. Back Injuries: These can result in chronic pain, muscle spasms, weakness, and limited mobility.
  3. Head and Jaw Injuries: Traumatic brain injuries can occur, causing temporary impairment, while jaw injuries can lead to difficulties with chewing and eating.
  4. Spinal Injuries: The most feared injury, which can result in paralysis, brain damage, and walking or standing problems.
  5. Psychological Trauma: Not a physical injury, but experiencing anxiety, distress, trouble sleeping, nightmares, and flashbacks after an accident is common.

It is important to consider both physical and psychological issues. We are here to assist with compensation for visible and emotional injuries.

Time Limit for a Personal Injury Claim

You have 3 years to pursue a claim from the date of the accident or date of knowledge. 

Different Compensation Options in a Personal Injury Claim

You can claim two types of compensation: general damages and special damages.

  1. General damages are based on medical evidence and account for the impact of your injuries on your current and future well-being.
  2. Special damages are intended to restore your financial situation to what it was before the accident. This includes covering travel expenses for medical appointments, rehabilitation costs, personal care assistance, home or car adaptations, lost earnings, property damage, and other related costs.

Our experienced solicitors adhere to securing maximum compensation by addressing all possible costs and losses.

How Much Compensation Can I Receive?

For minor injuries, settlements usually start from £1,000, while the most severe injuries can result in thousands of pounds in compensation.

The compensation amount is determined case-by-case, considering medical reports, expert opinions, and legal guidelines. In more severe cases, with long-term disabilities or significant financial losses, the compensation awarded tends to be higher.

It is necessary to consult with a no-win no-fee solicitor who specialises in personal injury claims to assess your case accurately and provide guidance on the potential compensation you may deserve based on the specific circumstances of your injury.

What is a personal injury claim?

A personal injury claim is a legal procedure that enables you to pursue compensation when you have sustained injuries in an accident that was not your fault. It provides an opportunity to pursue financial recovery for the damages and losses you have suffered due to someone else’s negligence or wrongful actions.

What is a no-win, no-fee agreement?

A no-win, no-fee agreement is a funding arrangement that allows you to claim personal injuries without paying any upfront costs. If your claim gets rejected, you won’t be responsible for paying any legal fees. This arrangement provides access to legal representation and helps without any financial risk typically associated with pursuing a physical injury claim.

What is the difference between a personal injury claim and an accident at work claim?

A personal injury claim is a lawful process to secure compensation for injuries suffered in various types of accidents. On the other hand, an accident at work claim is focused explicitly on accidents that occur in the workplace. While both types of claims seek compensation for injuries, an accident at work claim pertains specifically to incidents that happen while carrying out work-related duties.

Can I claim a personal injury if I was partially at fault for the accident?

Yes. If you were partially responsible for the accident, you could still claim for physical harm. However, it is important to note that your payment may adjust to reflect your level of responsibility. That means the compensation you obtain could be reduced based on the extent of your involvement in the incident. Discussing your case with a lawyer of accident claim who can guide how your level of responsibility may impact your claim is advisable.

How long does it take to settle a personal injury claim?

The time to settle can vary depending on the case’s complexity and whether there is a liability dispute. Some claims may resolve quickly, while others may take longer to conclude. It is necessary to note that each case is unique, so the duration of the compensation process can differ from one case to another. Generally between 12–16 Months.

Will I have to go to court?

In most cases, accident claims are usually settled outside the court. However, there are situations where attending court becomes necessary. It typically occurs when a liability dispute or negotiations fail to resolve satisfactorily. Although court attendance is not always required, it is crucial to be prepared for the possibility in case it becomes necessary to seek a fair outcome for your claim.

How do I choose the right solicitor for my personal injury claim?

When choosing a solicitor for your personal injury claim, finding someone with expertise in handling similar cases is essential. Look for personal injury solicitors who have dealt with similar cases and have a track record of success. Equally important is finding a solicitor with whom you feel comfortable working. Building a good connection and feeling confident in their abilities can significantly contribute to a positive and successful claim experience.

How do I prove liability in a personal injury claim?

Liability is typically proven by demonstrating negligence or breach of duty by the other party, using evidence such as:

  •     Witness statements
  •     Photographs
  •     Medical records

Can I make a personal injury claim on behalf of someone else?

Yes, you can act as a litigation friend and make a personal injury claim for someone unable to do so themselves. This role allows you to advocate for the injured person and ensure their interests are represented throughout the legal process. Acting as a litigation friend enables you to seek compensation on their behalf, providing support and assistance in pursuing their rightful claim.

How do I know if I have a valid claim?

If you need help deciding whether you’re eligible to claim, you should contact our claims solicitors. They can examine your situation and tell you whether you have a valid claim. You might have a proper claim if you were injured in an accident that wasn’t your mistake or due to someone else’s carelessness or lack of care.
