For example, it may be that you can no longer work in the same capacity as you did before, and there may be a loss of earnings claim to make.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When you drill down to the detail of just how badly victims who suffer this kind of injury can be affected, there can be a lot to take into account.
