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.
