Swansea is a coastal city located in Wales. Swansea was historically prominent during the 19th century due to it being the centre of the copper-smelting industry but now it is well loved for its nightlife and cultural sites such as The Royal Institution of South Wales.

While Swansea is a lovely place to live in or visit, if you have been injured in the city due to an incident that wasn’t your fault, you may be able to claim compensation. To find out how much compensation you might be eligible to claim, contact First Personal Injury today.

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

Medical Negligence Cases

If you have suffered due to medical negligence, you may be able to claim compensation. Medical negligence is a broad term that covers a large range of different malpractice scenarios. For example, you could have been injured while undergoing an operation or you could have been harmed by poor medical advice. No matter what type of medical negligence you have experienced, First Personal Injury can assess your case and determine the amount of compensation that you are owed.

Accidents at Work

Your employer has a duty of care to ensure safety in the workplace. To do this, all employers must follow the health and safety guidelines that are relevant to your industry. For example, if you work in construction, your employer should provide you with personal protective equipment like strong boots to ensure your safety on the job.

 

If your employer has failed to uphold any health and safety standards and you have been injured as a result, you may be able to claim compensation. To find out how much compensation you could claim, contact First Personal Injury.

Accidents in Public Places

Accidents can happen anywhere, even if you are just walking down the street or eating in a café. It doesn’t matter what type of accident you have experienced, as long as it was not your fault you are probably eligible to claim compensation. Our expert team at First Personal Injury are on hand to assess your case and ensure that you get the compensation that you deserve.

Your claim could potentially be against a larger chain like a supermarket or a local authority like the council. No matter who your claim is against, if they have failed to keep you safe while you are in their establishment or a public place, you could be able to claim.

Accidents on the Road

Whether you were a cyclist, driver, passenger or a pedestrian, if you have been injured in an accident that wasn’t your fault, you could be able to claim compensation. Compensation can help to ensure that you get the physical and emotional treatment that you need after being in a road traffic accident, without incurring a financial burden.

Compensation can also help to cover any additional financial costs that are related to your accident, such as a loss of income if you have had to take time off work or the costs of repairing your vehicle. To find out how much compensation you can claim, 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 Swansea – 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.
