Personal Injuries: Compensation Guide*

‍

The Injuries Board provide an estimate of figures which provide a general guideline in relation to the value of an injury claim*.

‍

Obviously each case depends on its own merits taking individual circumstances into account i.e. the severity of the injury, age, occupation etc.

‍

In addition there may be a claim for special damages such as loss of earnings, medical expenses, out of pocket expenses and vehicle damage costs. In serious cases there may also be future loss of earnings, future expenses etc.

‍

We have attached a link to the Injuries Board website which confirms their estimate of claims. Again we would mention that this really is only an estimate and each case can differ from these estimates  greatly depending on circumstances:
