When Could I Make A Personal Injury Claim?

If you have been injured in an accident in Guildford, you might be eligible to make a personal injury claim.

To be able to make a personal injury claim, you must be able to illustrate the following:

  • You were owed a duty of care.
  • There was a breach of this duty.
  • This breach led to you suffering injuries. A breach of duty of care that results in an injury is known as negligence.

This means you might be able to make a claim following an accident at work, a public place accident, or a road traffic accident as long as you can establish that negligence occurred.

Our personal injury solicitors for Guildford accidents could help you with your particular claim, as they have many years of experience handling various types of personal injury claims.

Please contact our advisors today to discuss your claim. They could also help answer questions such as, ‘Do I have to use solicitors in Guildford for my claim?’

Personal Injury Solicitors For Guildford Road Traffic Accidents

If you have been unfortunate enough to have sustained an injury in a road traffic accident (RTA) then you may be eligible to make a claim for compensation. Whatever your injuries may be, our Guildford personal injury solicitors are here to help you in your attempts to be awarded the compensation that you deserve.

Road traffic accident claims cover a wide range of incidents. This can include claims for car accidents, motorbike accidents and public transport accidents. Victims can be drivers, passengers or pedestrians and regardless of the circumstances, if you have been the victim of a road traffic accident then you should get in touch with our speciality RTA accident solicitors for Guildford to see if you have a valid claim for compensation.

Accidents In A Public Place – How Can Solicitors For Guildford Help?

Whether you are in the street, park or another public place in Guildford such as a shop, supermarket or restaurant, you should be free to go about your normal business without the risk of injury.

Businesses and public bodies such as councils are obliged to minimise any risks to ensure the public’s safety and for the most part, this is the case and most people are not accident victims. But sometimes accidents occur and if the accident was not your fault, then you should consider making a claim for your personal injury with one of our solicitors for Guildford.

Benefits Of Using A Solicitor For Serious Injury Claims

Huge disruptions in your life can occur if you have been the victim of a serious accident. Head, spinal cord and other serious injuries such as blindness or amputation can have lifelong consequences that can affect all parts of your life including:

  • Your family

Serious injuries can be hugely traumatic and as well as leaving you with life-limiting injuries, they can leave you with psychological conditions such as stress, anxiety and a host of other mental health issues.

Our specialist Guildford team of solicitors are proud to have made a real difference to countless people who have been the victims of serious accidents and have done all they can to help them claim compensation to assist them living a life as full as possible after their accident.

Solicitors For Guildford Accident At Work Claims

All employers in the UK have a legal obligation to protect you from any possible risks that you face at work. From offices and shops to construction sites and factories, there is a wide range of accidents that can happen at your workplace if the appropriate safety guidelines are not followed.

Following an injury at work, your employer should report the incident to a government body called RIDDOR. If your employer fails to do this, then you can do it yourself.

If you have been unfortunate to have been injured in an accident in the workplace, our accident solicitors are here ready and waiting to help you get the justice and compensation that you deserve. Contact us today to find out how solicitors for Guildford accident at work claims could help you.

How Much Could Your Claim Be Worth?

There can be quite a few figures to take into account when considering your final compensation amount. Because of this, it can be difficult to come up with an estimate, especially in the early stages.

In this section, we will include some example figures from the Judicial College Guidelines (JCG). These are the guidelines that are used to calculate how much the injured party should be awarded for the pain and suffering associated with their injuries. You’ll find a small cross-section of these figures in the table below. This sum is known professionally as general damages.

Mental anguish (E) Where there is a fear that your life is about to end, or your lifespan is about to be severely reduced £4,380
Chest (g) Rib fractures or injuries of the soft tissue that cause pain/disabilities only a period of weeks Up to £3,710
Illness (b) – (iv) pain, cramps, and diarrhoea that vary in degree of severity and continue for a number of week or weeks (food poisoning, for example) £860 to £3,710

Leg (c) Less serious – (i) fractures or soft tissue injuries where the recovery is incomplete. A reasonably recovery will have taken place but the injured party will have been with an implant/limp etc. £16,860 to £26,050
Achilles Tendon (b) Serious – the tendon will have been completely severed and the repaired, but there will still be some weakness £23,460 to £28,240

There are also certain costs that you may need to cover as a result of your injury. For example, you may have prescriptions to pay for, or you may have experienced a loss of earnings due to your inability to attend work. These costs are known collectively as special damages.
