To assess your claim, contact us on 0800 808 9740 or online.

Hull is a port city and unitary authority within the East Riding of Yorkshire. Hull’s Marina, The Deep (an aquarium in Hull) and other attractions like the Museum Quarter make Hull a popular destination for tourists and residents alike.

However, just as with any other place in the world, there is always the risk that you could be involved in an accident while visiting or living in Hull. If you have been injured in an accident while in Hull which was caused by someone else, then you may be able to claim compensation.

First Personal Injury has over twenty years of experience in helping clients based in Hull with personal injury cases. Some of the types of cases we deal with include:

Medical Negligence Cases

Medical negligence cases can sadly happen anywhere. All medical practitioners have a duty of care towards their patients, whether they work in a private practice performing cosmetic procedures or for the NHS. Whether you were the victim of a botched surgery or you received poor medical advice/misdiagnosis, you may be able to claim compensation for the pain and suffering that the negligence has caused you.

For further information, please visit our Medical Negligence page.

Personal Injury Cases

If you have been involved in an accident in a public place that wasn’t your fault, you may be able to claim compensation. Accidents in public places can occur anywhere but some common locations include supermarkets or concert venues. First Personal Injury can happily assess the case with you and determine how much compensation you are likely to be owed based upon the injuries you have suffered and their impact upon your life.

Accidents On The Road

In a 2018 report, it was found that in 2016 there were 809 reported road traffic accidents in Hull. Due to the fact that statistics are based upon accidents that are reported, the likelihood is that the number of accidents that occur within Hull each year is even higher. If you or a loved one has been involved in a road traffic accident – either as a driver, passenger, cyclist or a pedestrian – you deserve to receive some form of compensation. Contact First Personal Injury to begin the claims process.

How Much Compensation Am I Owed?

Compensation is decided on a case by case basis, taking into account the pain and suffering caused by your injuries and the impact that these injuries have had upon your ability to function/your amenity. For example, if you can no longer complete tasks that you normally could, you may be able to be compensated for this loss of ability.

Compensation also takes financial loss into account. If you have experienced a loss of income due to your injuries, then it may be possible to account for this loss of income through compensation. Similarly, if you have had to pay for treatment or other costs associated with your injuries, it may be possible to claim these costs back through compensation.

To calculate how much compensation you could be owed, use our compensation calculator. However, it is important to remember that these figures are just estimates based upon previous cases. The best way to determine how much compensation you are likely to receive in your case is to speak directly to a personal injury solicitor.

How Do I Make a Claim?

At first, you must provide some initial details about your accident in Hull – such as the date it occurred and where it happened. After your initial consultation, our solicitors will assess whether you have a valid case and the amount of compensation that you are likely to be owed.

If you have any documents related to the accident, such as medical transcripts, photographs, witness details or notes, you should keep these safe as they could be used as important pieces of evidence in your case.
