Your Rights
You do not need to have broken anything or have been seriously injured to make a claim for personal injury compensation from slipping on steps. So don’t think that you are unable to claim because you are still in one piece! That being said, a back injury can be very painful and can lost a considerable period of time; so you may well be entitled to make a claim.
Worth Pursuing?
According to official guidelines, minor back injuries that recover within two years can be valued at up to £5,600. But the true value of your claim is based on your individual circumstances – so it’s definitely worth making a claim for it! Generally speaking, the more you suffer, the more we get for you; and on top of that we can claim back for losses such as:
- Lost earnings from time off work.
- Medication and treatment expenses (common in back injury cases).
- Travel expenses to and from medical appointments.
- Care and assistance claims from help provided by friends and family.
Fast Treatment
As a firm of lawyers who specialise personal injury claims, we have a unique agreement with a medical partner firm to arrange for privately funded treatment for injuries right from the start of the claim. You do not pay for this upfront and we will recover the cost of it from the other side if the claim wins, or from insurance if it loses. In back injury cases, early intervention treatment can be vital!
