Salford is a city based in Greater Manchester, directly west to Manchester city centre. Salford is famously known for MediaCityUK, which has BBC and ITV Granada offices in it. Many people enjoy visiting or living in Salford.

However, you could potentially be injured while in the city. If you have been injured due to an accident that wasn’t your fault, you may be able to claim compensation.

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

Medical Negligence Cases

Medical negligence, also known as clinical negligence, refers to many different scenarios. For example, your doctor could have failed to diagnose you with a certain condition or they may have made the wrong diagnosis.

A medical professional could have prescribed the wrong drug, leading to harm or you could have been injured during an operation due to medical malpractice. If you have suffered due to medical negligence, you may be able to claim compensation.

Accidents at Work

Accidents can happen in any industry or work environment. Therefore, your employer has a duty of care towards you which is fulfilled by upholding the health and safety standards that are relevant to your job. For example, if you work in a noisy work environment/job role, your employer should provide you with ear protection.

Great service, very understanding from the first phone call to the last.

If your employer fails to uphold the relevant health and safety procedures and you are injured as a result, you may be able to claim compensation. Similarly, if another employee acts negligently which causes you to suffer an injury, you may also be able to claim compensation.

Accidents on the Road

If you have been injured in a road traffic accident that wasn’t your fault, you deserve to claim compensation if you wish. Whether you were a pedestrian, passenger, driver or a cyclist, you could be able to claim for the pain and suffering you have experienced as well as any financial damages. For example, if your vehicle requires extensive repairs, it may be possible for compensation to cover these costs. To find out how much compensation you may be owed, speak to First Personal Injury.

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 Salford– 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.
