Serious Injury Compensation Claim Process
Taking Instructions After a Serious Injury
Once you contact us, we’ll meet you in hospital or at home to discuss what we can do to help with your serious injury compensation. In the short-term, and subject to negotiated agreement with the party at fault, this can include;
- Transferring the injured individual from hospital to a specialist rehabilitation unit
- Appointing a Serious Injury Compensation Case Manager to oversee treatment
- Instructing medical experts, on a private basis, to advise on treatment and the future prospects for the individual.
Pursuing a serious injury claim for compensation
Hilary Meredith Solicitors Ltd will advise you from the outset if you have a realistic Serious injury compensation claim to pursue, against whom there could be a claim for serious injury compensation. We will pursue such serious injury claims, aiming to prove who is to blame, and recovering a sum sufficient to cover the current and future needs of the individual, taking into account a wide range of issues;
- An amount for the serious injury itself – including an award for pain and suffering, plus loss of amenity.
- The need for constant care - we can obtain costs covering past care by relatives or friends, plus future care for life, by private carers.
- The sufferer’s past losses - including loss of earnings, out-of-pocket expenses, and the cost of any personal effects damaged in the accident.
- The sufferer’s loss of future earning capacity – we can claim for future loss of earnings for life should the individual be incapable of working. For those capable of working, but with a disability, we can claim loss on the open market if employment is lost when competing with able-bodied applicants.
- Others’ past losses - an award to friends and family for out-of-pocket expenses, extra travel, loss of earnings or the provision of care.
- Loss of mobility and the need for suitable accommodation – should the injuries result in mobility problems, and the need for adapted or new accommodation, we can pursue a claim for funds sufficient to buy new housing – and we employ architects who can adapt housing to suit individual requirements.
