Injury

Spine injuries can cause loss of sensation, bowel, bladder and sexual function and in most serious cases irreversible paralysis below the level of the injury. The lives of victims are altered forever and full support is beyond the financial scope of most families. If a third party was wholly or partly responsible for the accident, a spinal injury compensation claim can be instigated against the negligent person. If you or someone you care for have been injured in an accident that was wholly or partly the fault of another person within the last three years, you are entitled to make a spinal injury compensation claim. You should consult a solicitor, without delay, for advice on a no win no fee basis.

Damages

The award of damages in a spinal injury compensation claim can include items of ‘general damage’ such as ‘pain & suffering’ and loss of lifestyle caused by the injury and items of ‘special damage’ which covers loss of earnings, medical expenses and any help or care provided professionally or by friends and relatives. In addition the award will cover future anticipated losses and an element of interest.

Accidents

Most incidents resulting in a spinal injury compensation claim occur at work or during contact sports or in road traffic accidents :-

• Work
  If there is an accident at work and injury is sustained due to the negligence of another person, the victim will be entitled to damages in a spinal injury compensation claim. By law all employers have to ensure the health and safety of employees whilst at work and in particular must provide a safe workplace and a safe system of work with adequate training & supervision.
• Sport
  Both those involved in organising sporting activities and participants in sport have a duty to ensure the safety of others. Injuries suffered as a result of dangerous challenges or unsafe equipment and playing areas can justify starting a spinal injury compensation claim. Fortunately organisers and participants at almost every level of organised sport are covered by insurance for payment of sports injury compensation.
• Motors
  In the case of a road traffic accident, the insurance company of the driver at fault will be liable to pay damages in a spinal injury compensation claim. In ‘hit & run’ cases where the driver remains unidentified or in accidents where the driver is uninsured, compensation will normally be paid by the Motor Insurers Bureau.
