A broken leg can cause some real disability physically as well as causing considerable losses from time off work. Compensation payouts are designed to reflect the severity and length of the suffering you have had to endure, as well as compensate you for losses and expenses as a result.<\/p>\n

Generally speaking, the more you suffer, the more we get for you.<\/p>\n

So what\u2019s the typical value of a broken leg compensation claim? Let\u2019s take a look at the guidelines that we use with medical evidence to give you a rough idea.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Simple fractures of the tibia or fibula will normally attract awards of up to \u00a36,500.00<\/b> according to the official guidelines we use to value claims for personal injury compensation. On top of that would be the losses and expenses claim and any claims for other injuries as well.<\/p>\n

As I said earlier, the more you suffer, the more we get for you \u2013 so it all depends on how bad the break is.<\/p>\n

In cases requiring metal implants (pins, screws, etc) and the potential for a permanent limp or problems you could be in for a payout of up to \u00a320,000.00<\/b> for the injury alone. Multiple fractures and \/ or comminuted \/ compound fractures can attract awards of up to \u00a340,000.00<\/b>. Again, this can depend on recovery as in cases where it\u2019s going to be years and years or even permanently may push the award up.<\/p>\n

Severe fractures could amount to up to \u00a3100,000.00<\/b> \u2013 but we\u2019re talking severe and permanent disability with poor recovery.<\/p>\n

But there is another important thing you need to know! <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

It isn\u2019t just about the value of your claim, it\u2019s also about how much of a percentage your solicitor is going to want to take. The law changed in April 2013 when the government stopped lawyers recovering all of their fees from the other side. Now, most solicitors will take 25% from your compensation payout.<\/p>\n

But we offer you a 100% compensation agreement<\/a><\/b> – so we could save you thousands of pounds!<\/p>\n

So don\u2019t lose out on what\u2019s rightfully yours and maximise the final payout you are entitled to receive by calling us today on 0800 634 75 75.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
