Understanding Personal Injury Claims
Today we are focusing on personal injury claims as part of our weekly bite size understanding of Injury Lawyers database. A Personal Injury Claim can be defined as when a person suffers an injury, physical or psychological, as a result of an accident or malpractice through no fault of their own.
From April 2000, Legal Aid is largely no longer available for personal injury claims with the exception of medical negligence claims. To help compensate for this removal of funding, Injury Lawyers offer various packages such as No Win No Fee to help with an individuals right to claim.
It is estimated there are just over 11 million accidents per year in the UK and around 2 million of these are caused by someone else’s fault. One in three people are frightened to make a claim for an injury they suffered from some else for a multitude of reasons. It’s also an unsettling fact to learn that 1 in 2 people who suffer a personal injury within the workplace are frightened to make a claim against their employer.
Most commonplace Personal Injury Claims are as follows:
-
Road Accident Claims

Accidents at Work

Trips and Slips
-
Assault
