To start a Personal Injury Compensation claim, tell us briefly about your injury. Personal Injury Compensation is the financial support victims of accidents and injuries can claim in an effort to return them as closely as possible to the situation they were in before the accident. If your claim is successful, the Personal Injury Compensation you can receive is calculated by adding together two types of compensation: general damages and special damages. General damages Awarded to compensate you for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity associated with your injury. The amount that you may be entitled to is worked out based on the type of injury and how serious the injury is. Special damages Relate to the financial loss you have suffered and / or any costs which you have incurred as a result of your injury. Personal injury compensation amounts are always calculated according to the unique circumstances of your accident and the impact it has on your life. An experienced solicitor will ensure that your personal injury claim payout accounts for every loss you have suffered until now, and those you will face in the future.

There is no fixed amount for a successful personal injury claim, given the variety of different ways a person can suffer a personal injury that was not their fault and how that injury has effected them physically, mentally or financially. Payouts from £1,500 to hundreds of thousands pounds are paid out to successful claimants whose personal circumstances and injuries support their claim. If you believe you’ve suffered from a personal injury at work, in a public or private place or you suffered a serious personal injury in a car accident, you could be entitled to make a claim if it was in the last 3 years.
