If you have suffered a chest injury in a public place, at work, in a traffic accident or on private property, you may be able to make a claim for personal injury compensation.
Types of chest injuries may include – but are not limited to – the following:
Lung damage due to toxic smoke inhalation
Cracked/broken ribs
Internal injury
How much compensation will I receive?
The amount of compensation you may receive will depend on the severity of the injury you have suffered. This will be decided following medical assessment by a medical expert.
Our compensation calculator offers you a guide to how much compensation you may receive for your injury alone. In addition to claiming for injury, you may also be able to claim for financial loss sustained as a result of the accident.
Level of injury
Potential compensation
Lung/heart damage
£56,100 – £85,880
Toxic fume/smoke inhalation

Injuries leading to collapsed lungs with full recovery

Fractures of ribs/soft tissue injuries

The figures are for injury only. Compensation for other loses like loss of earnings are claimed for separately.
