Compensation In Personal Injury Cases – “Damages”
General Damages in personal injury claims are awarded to you to compensate you for “pain, suffering and loss of amenity”.
The amount of compensation you receive depends on your injury, how long it will take you to recover, and prognosis. When we assess the amount of compensation you may receive, we refer to expert medical reports, case law and the Judicial College Guidelines.
We aim to maximise your compensation. With our knowledge and expertise we ensure you will be adequately compensated for your injuries.
Special Damages in personal injury claims are losses or expenses you may suffer as a result of the accident. Special damages you may receive include but are not limited to:
- Loss of earnings
- Medical treatment such as physiotherapy
- Travel expenses
- Damage to possessions
If you have suffered a serious or catastrophic injury, a personal injury claim for Special Damages may also include:
- Future loss of earnings
- Ongoing specialist medical care and related expenses
- Adjustments to your home
- Pension loss
