What are serious injuries?

Serious injuries are defined as those that have a significant impact on a person’s life, either in the short-term or long-term. They may result in permanent or temporary disability, and can require extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation. Some examples of serious injuries include:

• Traumatic brain injury: An injury to the brain caused by a blow or jolt to the head. This can result in a range of symptoms, including memory loss, confusion, and difficulty with speech and coordination.
• Spinal cord injury: An injury to the spinal cord that can result in paralysis, loss of sensation, and difficulties with mobility and control of the limbs.
• Burns: Severe burns caused by fire, chemicals, or other sources of heat or radiation, which can result in scarring and disfigurement.
• Amputation: The loss of a limb, either due to injury or medical conditions such as cancer.
• Fractures: Serious bone fractures, such as those to the skull, spine, or pelvis, which can result in permanent disability and reduced mobility.
• Internal injuries: Serious injuries to internal organs, such as the lungs, liver, or spleen, which can result in life-threatening conditions and long-term health problems.
• Multiple injuries: Serious injuries to multiple parts of the body, such as in the case of a major road traffic accident or other type of catastrophic event.

These types of injuries can have a profound and lasting impact on a person’s life, and can result in significant physical, emotional, and financial hardships. Serious injury solicitors can help individuals who have suffered from serious injuries to secure compensation for their injuries and related losses.

Making a serious injury claim

You have three years from the date of your accident to make a personal injury claim. The process of making a serious injury claim with Beacon Law typically involves the following steps:

• Gathering information: The first step in making a serious injury claim is to gather as much information as possible about the circumstances of the injury. This may include details of the accident, medical reports, and witness statements.
• Consultation with a solicitor: It is recommended that individuals who have suffered from a serious injury consult with a specialist serious injury solicitor. During this consultation, the solicitor will assess the case and provide advice on the chances of success and the amount of compensation that may be recoverable.
• Preparing a case: If the individual decides to proceed with a claim, the solicitor will then begin to prepare the case. This will involve gathering further evidence, such as medical reports and expert witness statements, and reviewing the individual’s employment and financial records to calculate the extent of their losses.
• Negotiating with the defendant: The solicitor will then write to the defendant to set out the individual’s case and make a formal demand for compensation. If the defendant accepts liability, negotiations will take place to reach an out-of-court settlement.
• Issuing court proceedings: If the defendant denies liability or negotiations are unsuccessful, the solicitor may advise the individual to issue court proceedings. This involves filing a claim form at the appropriate court and serving it on the defendant.
• The court process: If court proceedings are necessary, the case will be heard by a judge. During this process, the evidence will be presented and witnesses may be called to give evidence. The judge will then make a decision on the case and order the defendant to pay compensation if they are found to be liable.
• Receiving compensation: If the individual is successful in their claim, the defendant will be ordered to pay compensation. This will typically include a lump sum payment to cover the individual’s past and future losses, as well as payment for any out-of-pocket expenses such as medical costs and rehabilitation.

It is important to note that serious injury claims can be complex and time-consuming, and the process can take several months or even years to complete. However, a specialist serious injury solicitor, Manchester can provide guidance and support throughout the process, and help to ensure that the individual receives the compensation they are entitled to.
