Spinal injuries may arise from almost any type of accident, with the most common being through car accidents, accidents at work, whilst playing sport, as a result of a slip, trip or fall or due to medical negligence. If you or someone close to you has had a spinal injury as the consequence of an accident for which there was someone else to blame it is important that you contact Bristol personal injury claims solicitors** as soon as possible as there may be an entitlement to claim compensation for the spinal injury and they will be able to provide you with detailed advice and assist at what is usually an extremely difficult time.
In order to try and determine how much spinal injury compensation you may be entitled to a Bristol personal injury specialist will need to understand exactly how the accident occurred as this will enable them to determine who was liable for the injury. Further to this, there are a number of other factors that will contribute to the amount of spinal injury compensation, including the severity of the injury and any other long term implications, such as loss of future earnings or incurred medical costs. Other amounts that need to be considered when determining spinal injury compensation include any costs of rehabilitation, nursing, specialised equipment, transportation costs and the costs of modifying any living arrangements.
Make a Claim for a Spinal Injury
Although it is not possible to provide a definitive amount, the amount of compensation awarded usually increases proportionally depending on the severity of the injury and any amount awarded should be enough to cover all current and future costs that arise as a direct result of the injury.
Although each injury will be different and there is a broad range of types of spinal injuries, such injuries are often extremely serious and may lead to paralysis. Such an injury is more than likely to have serious consequences for all those involved and therefore it is important that Bristol spinal injury compensation solicitors** work alongside the injured party and those who are close to them in order to ensure that suitable spinal injury compensation is received.
