What Is a Personal Injury?
A personal injury is a legal term often used to describe trauma due to someone else’s negligence. These types of lawsuits are filed by people (or their representatives) who have suffered physical or emotional harm due to negligence, reckless conduct or intentional misconduct. These cases aim to detect who was responsible for the accident and oblige them to compensate the victim.
To have a higher chance of receiving compensation, you should seek help from experienced solicitors. Our lawyers work on a no win no fee basis, meaning you only have to pay service fees if your case is successful. If you are looking for expert solicitors in England, do not hesitate to contact us. Our no win no fee solicitors (London, Sheffield or remotely) will help you learn more about your legal rights and provide qualified advice.
What Types of Personal Injury Can You Claim For?
Many types of injuries can qualify as personal injuries. If your trauma was caused by someone else, there’s a high chance you can file for General Damage Compensation. This type of compensation includes injuries as such:
- Road Accidents (including car, motorcycle, bicycle and pedestrian claims).
- Work Accidents (including construction sites, farms, factories and more).
- Slips, Trips & Falls (including incidents in shops, shopping centres and other public places).
- Medical Negligence (including misdiagnosis, GP negligence and more).
- Holiday Injuries (including excursions, hotel and swimming pool incidents).
- Criminal Injuries (such as assaults and dog bites).
Whether it’s a road accident trauma or one caused by a defective product – basically, it can be any harm resulting from an accident of someone else’s negligence.
You can also fill out a Special Damages Compensation for occurrences that are a direct result of your injuries, for example, compensation for distress and upheaval, loss of earnings and financial losses, medical costs and prescription fees, damage to your property (such as your vehicle), travel expenses incurred as a result of an incident (such as hire cars or taxis), private care and rehabilitation costs, etc.
If you’ve suffered trauma that’s not listed above, contact our no win no fee lawyers to discuss your circumstances. We have helped clients with a wide range of different injuries and can advise you on the best course of action.
How Much Personal Injury Compensation Could You Receive?
If the claim is valid, the amount of compensation you can receive for your injuries mainly depends on specific circumstances. Severe trauma will result in bigger compensations; however, it depends on which body area was injured. That’s why we recommend that you get in touch with us to discuss the causes of your trauma in more detail.
Is Your Injury Compensation Claim Valid?
To evaluate your validity for an accident case, first, you should answer the following questions:
- Was the incident within the last three years?
- Was someone else to blame for the incident?
- Were you or a person you know injured because of the incident?
These questions are key to the claiming process. Answering ‘yes’ to all three doesn’t mean a successful case is certain. However, it does indicate that you have a greater chance of being entitled to claims.
If you believe you or someone you know is qualified to file a case, a lawyer for personal injury legal advice could be beneficial. We advise you to contact us promptly so that we can start the process for you in time.
How to Begin a Personal Accident Claim?
After taking good care of your health, you can begin a personal no win no fee injury claim. Here are some steps you can take:
- Collect evidence. This includes photos and videos of the accident or your injuries and other visual evidence proving the damage sustained due to someone else’s fault.
- Note down everything that you’ve experienced after the incident. This can include medical bills, visits to the hospital and other documents from the doctor’s office.
- Contact the witnesses and make sure to have their information and statements.
- Try to get insurance coverage information from all parties involved.
Do not worry if you cannot complete these steps by yourself. Our professional no win no fee lawyers will assist you with all of your needs and provide legal help while dealing with accident cases.
