Suffering an accident that results in injury can be a physically and emotionally traumatic event that may have long-lasting consequences for your quality of life.

Back and spinal injury claims

A back injury can have a substantial and life-changing effect on your life, affecting your personal and work life, along with your ability to do the things you love. Back injuries can range in severity from minor to severe. Still, every type of back injury can harm your daily routine, leave you in severe pain and leave you feeling traumatised emotionally. Our experienced lawyers can help you receive the compensation you deserve when you have an accident that was not your fault.

What will I receive compensation for?

The amount of compensation will vary depending on a variety of factors. You can receive compensation specifically for the injury itself, but you may also be entitled to remuneration for other financial losses. If you have missed days at work, lost your job because of the injury, or cannot work again, you might be eligible to receive compensation for those losses. In addition, you could receive money to pay for any medical expenses that you have had to foot the bill for yourself.

How much compensation can I expect to receive?

On average, for a minor back injury, you may receive up to £10,000. Minor injuries include sprains and strains, as well as soft tissue injuries to your back that you can fully recover from within five years. A moderate injury encompasses prolapsed discs, damage to the bones in your spine, ligament damage and any damage to the soft tissue damage, which has worsened a pre-existing condition. For this kind of injury, you may receive anywhere from £10,000 to £34,000.

The most severe category of back injuries refers to spinal damage that causes significant long-term pain and has left you disabled. For these sorts of injuries, the average compensation is £34,000 – £140,000.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thanks to all the team at Porterwood,  and Craig the Solicitor whom dealt and won my claim . My claim was a fall from height to which I sustained a serious injury back in 2018 and led to quite a long recovery.  My case was dealt with very professionally and thoroughly and Craig managed to get me interim payments along the way and also payments for private physiotherapy  from the Defendants insurance which was of great help at the time .
This is a great firm to use and I would  definitely recommend them , they will give you realistic advice and have the use of numerous professionals in their field to help build your case .
Thanks again,
Sam .

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Od momentu zgłoszenia sprawy do momentu wypłaty pieniędzy minęły zaledwie cztery miesiące. Sam proces zgłoszenia, prowadzenia sprawy oraz formalności na najwyższym poziomie. W razie pytań Pan Norbert był praktycznie cały czas dostępny pod telefonem i potrafił rozwiać każda wątpliwość. Polecam każdemu, który uległ wypadkowi i liczy na szybkie oraz bezproblemowe załatwienie sprawy.
