Personal Injury Claims
Personal injury compensation is not a lottery win, an injury claim should only be made where accident injuries have occurred that have caused you pain and suffering and/or financial loss. Accidents compensation will not be paid out for near misses (e.g. prescribed the wrong drugs by GP but pharmacist noticed) or a personal injury that does not really affect your life (e.g. a cut on your hand that heals quickly and without fuss). Just because you have been injured does not mean you will definitely get accident compensations no matter how good your injury lawyer might be.
Remember, for an injuries claim to be successful you will need evidence from an injury specialist such as a doctor for your injuries solicitor to even begin the accident compensation process. Injuries compensation amounts are based on the actual suffering felt, not on how much money the opposition has or what the court considers a fitting punishment (unlike injury compensation in the US) and is generally calculated by an injuries specialist.
