Most often accidents are unexpected and can happen at anytime or anywhere. This could mean you have to take time off work to recover from the personal injury, which can lead to financial difficulties or long term health problems. This is why it is important for victims to make a personal injury claim as the compensation they get will be based on injuries suffered, time off work and any financial losses due to the injury. The compensation awarded will give you more time to recover and also include physio treatment if required.

Personal injury claims can be made for road accidents which involve cars, vans, motorcycles, lorries or buses and the person injured could be a driver, passenger or pedestrian. Many work accidents occur through inadequate training or lack of safety/protective equipment. Slip, trip or fall accidents can happen in shops/supermarkets or in a public area. To make a successful personal injury claim it must have occured in the last 3 years and you must not be at fault.
