The change in making an Injury Claim

Since the demise of Legal Aid for personal injury cases in the late 1990’s most claims are now carried out on a basis that the claimant will not be charged a fee should the case be unsuccessful. This is known as ‘no win, no fee’. The claimant initially takes free advice through an injury claims solicitor who will then advise whether the claimant has a possibility of gaining compensation. If the claimant goes ahead the solicitor handles all the legal aspects of the case and takes a percentage of any compensation should the case be successful. If the case fails then the solicitor makes no charge to the claimant.

Due to the possible sums of money that can be made through compensation claims, this sector of the legal profession has grown at an astonishing rate in the last 10 years. An injury claim not only takes into account the physical and psychological damage itself but also loss of earnings since the accident, future loss of earnings, the cost of medical care to date and also the cost of any future care. This is in stark contrast to Criminal Injuries Compensation. Here the claimant is entitled to make a claim for the worst three injuries should multiple injuries have occurred. The Government decides how much each is worth and they are ranked in severity. The claimant is then entitled to 100% of the stated value for the first injury followed by 10% for the 2nd and 5% for the 3rd.
