Serious injury claims

Serious injury claims - Legal support

In the UK, you have the right to compensation for injuries caused by someone else's negligence, whether at work, in a traffic accident or in a public place. Compensation covers all expenses such as loss of income, medical expenses, housing adaptation expenses and others. In addition, you may receive compensation for physical and psychological suffering. The goal of compensation is to restore the quality of life you had before the incident. Personal injury claims must usually be filed within three years of the event, so it's important to act without delay.

When are you entitled to compensation?

You can seek compensation if your injury or harm is a direct result of someone else's actions or omissions. For example, if you were injured at work because of a faulty tool, lack of proper training, or because a co-worker was at fault, you have the right to file a lawsuit against your employer. The same applies to traffic accidents where the other driver is at fault, or when you slip or fall in a public place due to the negligence of the owner of the premises. 

The main task is to prove a direct connection between the negligence and your injury. For a successful lawsuit, it is important to collect evidence, undergo a medical examination and carefully document the circumstances of the event.

How is the compensation amount determined?

When determining the amount of compensation, various factors are taken into account, including the severity of the injury and its long-term consequences. The calculation includes the costs of current and future treatment, rehabilitation, as well as lost earnings and the possibility of giving up a hobby. Compensation covers additional costs such as transport, home modifications and care. In addition to economic costs, non-economic damages such as pain, suffering and reduced quality of life are also taken into account. It is important to keep all documents that support your expenses.

Procedure for receiving compensation

The first step is to gather evidence, such as medical records, photographs of the scene, and eyewitness accounts. The next step is to notify the person or organization you believe is responsible for your injury. This is done by sending a claim, which describes in detail the circumstances of the incident and the demand for recognition of responsibility. The defendant receives a certain period of time to familiarize himself with the case materials and make a decision on admitting or denying his guilt. In the event of a guilty plea, the parties may begin negotiations. If the fault is not recognized or disputes arise between the parties, the case may be referred to the court.

The role of legal aid - legal analysis of the situation

A professional lawyer is key to the success of a compensation case. An experienced specialist will provide a legal analysis of the situation, prepare and present the case to the court in the best possible way. A lawyer will help gather evidence, draft a claim letter, and represent you in negotiations with the responsible party or its insurance company. He will conduct a legal audit of the situation, determine the real amount of the claim and consider all complex legal aspects so that you can focus on your health.
