Compensation for a bone injury

If you are suffering from a bone injury as a result of an accident that was not your fault, you may be able to claim compensation. A compensation claim for a bone injury is known as a personal injury claim. You may have had to take time off from work, or pay large medical bills, and feel that you are owed more than an apology from the person who caused the accident.

A personal injury solicitor is a specialist in accident-compensation claims. They will be able to advise you as to whether you are owed any compensation, and manage your claim for you. This could involve negotiation with the party at fault or, if that is unsuccessful, the filing of a claim against them at the civil court. If the court finds that the other party caused your injury as a result of their negligence, they will order them to pay you compensation. The amount of compensation will be decided by the court and will vary from case to case.

Some examples of previous compensation awards for a bone injury are:

Up to £22,000 for multiple leg fractures
Up to £2,500 for a single finger fracture
Up to £30,000 for a serious forearm fracture
Up to £25,000 for a fractured jaw

It is important to remember that the above are examples and not compensation estimates for your specific injury. A personal injury solicitor will be able to offer a more accurate estimate based on your specific injury and circumstances.
