Medical Negligence Cases

Medical negligence is a broad term that can refer to many different scenarios in which harm is caused. For example, you could be the victim of medical negligence due to poor treatment during an operation or due to receiving poor medical advice. If you have been harmed due to any form of medical negligence, you may be able to make a claim.

Accidents at Work

No matter the industry that you work in, your employer has a duty of care to ensure your safety in the workplace. To do this, your employer should uphold the health and safety standards that are relevant to your industry. These standards may include the provision of personal protective equipment or training.

 

If your employer has failed to uphold these standards and you have been injured as a result, you may be able to claim compensation as a result. You may also be able to claim if a fellow employee has acted negligently, causing you to be injured.

Accidents on the Road

If you have been injured in a road traffic accident that wasn’t your fault, you may be able to claim compensation. Compensation can help to ensure that you do not experience a financial burden while trying to recover from your injuries. It can ensure that you do not suffer financial losses if you have to take time off from work to recover or if your vehicle has to be repaired. To find out how much compensation you may be owed, contact First Personal Injury today.

We have more information about Road Traffic Accidents available on our website.

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 Stoke – 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.
