The honest answer to both of the above questions is we don\u2019t know, we can give you a rough estimate to both of them but it entirely depends on the type of claim and what evidence we need to make the claim a success.<\/p>\n<p>When gathering evidence to link a client\u2019s injury to an accident it may be that we need to look at their medical records, this means requesting them from the NHS, and may take a few months for them to come through. The length of an <strong>average compensation claim varies from case-to-case<\/strong> depending on the co-operation of the other side.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The question about how much a claim is worth depends on a number of factors, we have to look at how it has effected you as an individual so we\u2019ll look at your loss of earnings, whether you require the care of another to do day-to-day tasks and any medical expenses you have paid out. We also have to look at your medical records to see if any past health problems may have worsened any injuries.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"h3\">Using our compensation calculator<\/h2>\n<p>Although we can never give you a definite estimate of how much a claim is worth until we have seen sufficient evidence, it is helpful for you to get a rough idea. If you visit our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/compensation-calculator\">Compensation Calculator<\/a> page and click on the area of the body that you have injured, it will give you an estimate as to what your claim could be worth.<\/p>\n<p>For example, a minor <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/whiplash-claims\">whiplash injury claim <\/a> is usually estimated at around \u00a32,000, which is around the minimum amount we&#8217;d expect to be paid out for this type of injury.<\/p>\n<p>If you would like more information or have any queries about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk\/personal-injury-claims\">personal injury compensation claims<\/a> then call <strong>0800 634 7575<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When we speak to clients some of the most popular questions are how much is my claim worth?
