Compensation

Most people are aware that compensation can be payable for injuries sustained in motor accidents, accidents at work, or in public places but many do not claim because they do not appreciate fully what compensation may be available and which types of incident can lead to a successful claim.

Any type of injury or illness whether minor or serious, can result in a legitimate claim for compensation damages if it was caused by the negligence of another party. Even if the injured person is partly responsible, a claim can still be pursued although the damages are likely to be reduced in proportion to the degree of blame.
Compensation can be payable under various headings such as pain and suffering, long term or permanent disability, medical treatment, travelling expenses, loss of past and future earnings and loss of or damage to personal property. The amount of compensation recovered will depend upon the extent of injuries suffered (General Damages) as well as the extent of losses and expenses incurred both up to the present time and into the future (Special Damages).

Claims for personal injury need to be brought within three years of the occurrence but despite this it is essential to take action as quickly as possible so that necessary information can be gathered whilst details are fresh in the mind.
