Realising that someone was to blame for an injury is not always a straightforward process. However, when that same injury starts to interrupt daily life, causes pain and starts to cost money through loss of earnings, medicines or care, investigating injury compensation claims will seem like a logical avenue of exploration. A leg injury claim can bring in substantial amounts of money depending on the severity of the injury and the circumstances. It may be as a result of an accident that was the fault of another party, or it may be the result of a criminal act like assault, but it might ultimately result in incapacitation for a prolonged period. Even a simple fracture of the tibula, fibula or femur can bring in an injury compensation claim of up to £6,000. It is worth remembering that lasting damage to the leg can result in requiring medical assistance, equipment and care. Ligaments, tendons and muscles can all be damaged which can inhibit a person’s ability to work or even walk.
An injury compensation claim can naturally follow, particularly if it was a criminal assault. Gaining compensation can give the victim a real sense of getting even which in itself can help the recovery process and instil faith that there is a system on their side. More severe injuries could actually be life threatening and at the very least life changing. A severe fracture could bring in injury compensation claims of up to £21,000 whereas serious injury without amputation could rise to £89,000. Amputations can rise even over £100,000 depending on the severity of the amputation and whether both legs are involved. The sooner a person acts in these circumstances, the sooner they will receive compensation and the reassurance that comes with knowing that both the claimant and their dependants will be taken care of.
