Below, we have covered some of the more common types of claims we process. Although our Liverpool personal injury lawyers can handle any type of claim, these below are the most frequent we help people win compensation for. And we can advise you further on how to claim.
Every employer in the UK has a legal obligation to maintain a safe working place for their employees. This is outlined in the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.
When Health and Safety protocols fail, leading to an accident at work that injures a staff member, you could make a personal injury claim for compensation.
Slips, trips and falls are very common reasons why people approach us here at Legal Expert to process an injury claim. An accident leading to slip, trip, and fall claims can happen in many ways, indoors or outdoors, for example:
These accidents can happen anywhere. In an office, at the local health clinic, the library, a supermarket, or just walking down the street.

Not all personal injury solicitors in Liverpool are equipped to deal with claims that involve serious injuries. Whilst there are similarities between all personal injury cases, serious injuries can require a different approach.
A client who is suffering serious injuries will often find that they have a profound impact on their life. Often, this can result in a reduced ability to earn a living or the need for ongoing daily support and care.
Rehabilitation is often of great importance in cases with serious injuries, and receiving the correct treatment quickly can improve your prognosis and long-term prospects. You should make sure any solicitor you use has handled these types of cases before.
We have a team of No Win No Fee solicitors in Liverpool with extensive experience in handling serious injury claims (sometimes known as catastrophic loss claims). You can contact us for a free initial case assessment to see how we can help you.
A question you may have is, ‘How much compensation might I receive?’. The honest answer is that it varies in every case, as injuries and financial losses caused by those injuries are always slightly different.
Looking at injury compensation for the pain and suffering caused by the accident (general damages) there is a tool often used, which is called the Judicial College Guidelines (JCG). The JCG contains compensation guideline brackets for a range of injuries. They are not guaranteed figures but offer a guide as to how much a particular injury may be worth.
Below is a table of injuries from the JCG, along with the injury severity and compensation bracket. Please note that the first figure does not come from the JCG as it contains significant financial losses (known as special damages).
| Injury | Severity | Guideline Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Multiple Serious Injuries and Financial Losses | Serious | Up to £1,000,000+ |
| Brain Injury | Very Severe | £344,150 to £493,000 |
| Loss Of Sight | Total Blindness | In the region of £327,940 |
| Total Loss of One Eye | £66,920 to £80,210 | |
| Back | Severe (i) | £111,150 to £196,450 |
| Neck | Severe (i) | In the region of £181,020 |
| Pelvis & Hips | Severe (i) | £95,680 to £159,770 |
| Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder | Severe | £73,050 to £122,850 |
| Elbow | A Severely Disabling Injury | £47,810 to £66,920 |
| Wrist | Less Severe | £15,370 to £29,900 |
| Hand | Amputation of Little Finger | £10,550 to £14,940 |

If you are eligible to make a personal injury compensation claim, you might be interested in working with a solicitor. One of our personal injury solicitors in Liverpool could help you. Our solicitors provide their services under a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA), which is a type of No Win No Fee arrangement.
Under the terms of a CFA, your solicitor won’t ask you to make any upfront or ongoing payments for their work on your case. They also won’t charge you for their services if your claim doesn’t succeed.
However, should your claim have a positive outcome, your solicitor will deduct a success fee from your compensation. This success fee is taken as a small percentage, which is limited by a legal cap.
