Limb injuries can range from sprains, dislocations or open gashes to severe nerve damage, broken bones or even amputation, and they can be caused by a wide variety of factors.
These types of injury often impair the victims’ ability to work and look after themselves and can have devastating effects on daily life. Limb injury claims can stem from traffic accidents, a slip or a fall, playing sports, an incident at work or medical negligence, as well as many other situations.
In fact, any time a limb is struck, twisted, crushed or wrenched, injury can occur. Some can be difficult to spot and many take weeks or months to heal. In certain cases, the injury affects the person for the rest of their life.
Limb Injury Compensation
Limb injury compensation awards will consider the actual injury as well as the circumstances in which it happened and how it will affect the person’s life going forward.
How much is paid out will depend on several factors and the money can help with treatment and rehabilitation and give peace of mind if you are unable to work because of the injury.
Compensation will only be given if it can be shown that someone else was at fault or behaved negligently, which then resulted in the injury.
