Making a claim
'The words “thank you” does not come close to expressing how grateful I am. Thank you both very much.'
Cases involving spinal cord injuries are complex and require a solicitor’s skill and understanding to guide you through the process of litigation.
If you have suffered a spinal cord injury, you may be entitled to compensation. It is important to remember that often, compensation is available in situations where it would seem that there is no case for example, where a person is involved in a hit and run road traffic accident or the victim of a violent assault whether or not the assailant has been apprehended.
If you bring a claim and are successful, you will be awarded compensation. Compensation is awarded under a number of different headings which include damages for your pain and suffering, for your financial losses from the date of the accident (e.g loss of earnings, medical expenses), and your ongoing expenses into the future.
Damages for future losses are the most complicated and require the input of various experts. Such losses can include loss of earnings into the future, ongoing nursing care, the cost of special aids and equipment including their maintenance and replacement in the future.
If you are unsure whether or not you can bring a claim for compensation, seeking advice from a solicitor will, at the very least, reassure you about your legal rights. It is worth taking legal advice before you decide whether or not to pursue a claim.
