Frequently asked questions: Personal injury
What types of compensation can I be awarded for my injury?
You may receive compensation for general damages (pain and suffering), special damages (financial costs such as loss of earnings, medical treatments, rehabilitation costs), and future anticipated expenses related to your injury.
How long will it take to settle my claim?
The time it takes to settle a personal injury claim varies depending on the complexity of your case, severity of injuries, negotiation proceedings, or if the claim goes to court. Typically, most straightforward injury claims settle within 12-24 months, while more complex cases can take longer.
Do I have to go to court for my claim?
Most personal injury cases are settled without needing court proceedings. However, on occasion, if a mutually acceptable settlement cannot be reached, going to court may become necessary, in which case we will support and represent you throughout the process.
Is there a time limit for starting a personal injury claim?
Usually, you have up to three years from the date you were injured to start your claim. There are exceptions, for instance claims involving children or individuals who lack capacity, but acting promptly ensures you have the best chance of securing compensation.
Can I claim compensation if the accident was partly my fault?
Yes, you may still claim. This is called contributory negligence. The amount of compensation will typically be reduced according to the degree of responsibility you had in the accident, but you can still receive compensation for the part that was not your fault.
