Leg and foot injuries
An injury to your leg, foot, or hip can be debilitating and have serious consequences. The most severe cases could lead to amputation or permanent disability. If any part of your leg is amputated, you could be entitled to up to £245,000.
For an injury to your hip or pelvis, you may be entitled to up to £35,000 for a moderate injury or £115,000 for the most serious cases. Additionally, you may be able to claim for medical expenses and lost earnings. Our experts can guide you to getting the right compensation for your circumstances.
Broken bones and fractures
Broken bones can be painful and may take a long time to heal. This could impact your ability to work and your mobility. If you have suffered a broken bone resulting from an accident at work or a public place, or if your child has had an accident at school, we can help you to obtain appropriate compensation.
Depending on the severity and location of the fracture, you could be due thousands of pounds. For a simple leg fracture, you could receive up to £21,100.
Burns, scars, and lacerations
Burns, scars, and lacerations can be debilitating and painful. They may permanently affect your appearance, causing both physical and emotional distress. These types of injuries may be caused by electrical equipment or machinery, as well as hair and beauty treatments.
The most severe burns-related injuries could mean you’re entitled to up to £64,000. Scarring can be a result of many types of injuries, and severity varies greatly. If you’ve suffered an injury that’s left you with scarring you could be entitled to at least £1,500.
Regardless of the type of injury you’ve experienced, Porter Wood Law can support you in making a compensation claim that helps you to move on. If you’ve had an injury that wasn’t your fault, contact us now for a free consultation.
