Other Personal Injuries

What are the types of personal injuries that I can claim for?

Personal injury is a broad legal term that covers a multitude of injury claims - whether those involve injuries from traffic and motor accidents, accidents on pavements, accidents in a shop or accidents at work.

As well as supporting people with whiplash compensation claims, every year we help people to launch successful personal injury claims. Our staff deal with hundreds of calls to offer free, reliable injury advice about making a no win no fee claim for compensation.

Just a few examples of other injuries might include the following - however always speak to our staff for clear advice whether or not you see your injury type here:

Back and/or Neck

Could be muscular, such as sprains and strains; injuries to the discs between the spinal vertebrae; injuries to the spine at the lumbar, thoracic (for the back) or the cervical level (for the neck). One example of a related claim is whiplash compensation.

Shoulder and Arm

Could involve muscles, such as sprains and strains, dislocated shoulder or elbow joints, rotator cuff injuries, fractures and general lacerations.

Leg and Foot

Could be muscle related, such as sprains and strains and ligament injuries, dislocations at any of the joints, fractures (particularly to the smaller bones of the feet), cuts, bruises, etc.

Facial and Head

Ranges from cuts, lacerations, bruises to fractures, TMJ (‘jawbone joint’) damage, damaged teeth, concussion and post-concussion syndrome. Can also involve concussion/ post-concussion syndrome, ‘closed head injury’ (trauma) or injury to the brain itself.

Psychological

Common examples include Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) with a variety of distressing symptoms impacting on daily life.

Personal Injury Claims aim to gain compensation for the distress and expenses (including loss of earnings where applicable) resulting from an accident which someone else was at fault for.
