How Much Is My Claim Worth?

The amount of compensation you will receive if the claim succeeds is made up of two parts.

"General Damages" - this is the term given to the pain and suffering element. The value of this part of your claim depends on the type of injury you have suffered, how long you were suffering from your injury, and whether your injury is going to have a long term effect on your life. A figure is set for this part based on previous amounts set by judges in similar cases to yours, for example -

Whiplash - £2,500
Broken Wrist - £3,000
Sprained Ankle - £2,000

"Special Damages" - this is the term given to your out of pocket expenses incurred as a result of the accident. This may include loss of earnings, loss of vehicle excess, hire of a replacement car, cost of public transport, prescriptions, etc.

This amount is added to the value of your general damages to make up the overall damages award.
