Our Personal Injury Claim Calculator provides claim values for the compensation you could receive.…

If you have been hurt in a non-fault accident then our Injury Claim Calculator will help you understand what value of compensation you could receive. Our Injury Claim Calculator helps identify which bracket of 'general damages' your compensation settlement will achieve depending on the the part of your body injured and severity.

A Personal Injury Compensation Calculator should only be used as a guide. For a more accurate assement of your claim and potential for compensation, you should call and speak to one of our personal injury lawyers. 

Where injuries are more serious in nature, other factors can influence compensation calculation and final claim settlements. In the immediate aftermath of a serious injury, it can be difficult to know the degree of pain and suffering associated with a prolonged road to recovery, whether future medical treatement will be required, or whether financial considerations need to be taken into account (known as special damages).  Special damages do not form any part of the values indicated in any area of our Personal Injury Claims Calculator.

If you think you are entitled to claim compensation, contact us to arrange a more in-depth conversation with an expert personal injury solicitor to verify the strength of your claim and see how we can help.

Personal Injury Claim Calculator

How much is my Injury Claim worth?

An award for personal injury compensation is based upon a number of factors, namely what type and degree of injury you have suffered, what effect this has on your immediate and future life, and your capacity to continue in your job or earn money in the future. The duration taken to recover, if indeed full recovery is even possible are also critical factors that need considerations.Our useful Personal Injury Claim Calculator above covers only provisional guidelines surrounding 'general damages'. 

In assessing your claim, medical evidence will be required from a specialist to help address these factors and will allow your personal injury lawyer to place a valuation bracket on your claim. There is no exact figure for any type of injury, everyone is different and everyone recovers at their own pace, so personal injury solicitors and judges allocate a bracket and then determine where in that bracket your compensation should be.

It is natural that we aim for the top of the bracket for our clients, while insurers for the people or organisation responsible for your injury tend to aim for the bottom.

Sometimes negotiations with the liable party's representatives can reach an agreement as to the value of the compensation settlement, and we would advise you as a client if we feel this is adequate. If not, your claim will proceed to court, where we argue your case as to why the final compensation pay out for your injury claim should be higher than what the defendants insurers have offered.

If you have been injured in an accident and you want free advice on how much compensation your claim is worth from a fully qualified personal injury solicitor then please contact us today to talk to one of our team. 

Using one of our specialist No Win No Fee Solicitors ensures that you have a better chance of winning your claim and receiving all of the compensation and help that you are entitled to. This means that you won't have any legal costs to pay in the highly unlikely event of your claim proving unsuccessful.

The more serious the injury the more you need a specialist solicitor on your side.

Fixed Legal Costs – Injury Compensation Awards below £5,000

 

If your case is successfully concluded for under £5,000.00 then you will receive compensation subject to the fixed legal costs as set out below. These fixed legal costs are calculated based on the separate awards for both your tariff and non tariff injuries. If your case is unsuccessful then you will obviously receive no compensation but you will have no legal costs to pay.

Legal costs relating to tariff injuries are fixed and are calculated based upon the level of compensation that your tariff injury qualifies for.

The injury tariff is set by the Government and is shown in the table below.

Compensation Guide

New Regulations on Compensation Calculation for Soft Tissue Injury Following a Car Accident

Compensation Calculator

 

The figures detailed above are non-negotiable, they are a set tariff which the government has introduced.  Compensation awards for soft tissue injuries resulting from a car accident are now approximately only 25% of the value of compensation awards made for accidents before the 1st of June 2021.

Personal injury clients will be sent for a medical examination where the examiner will indicate a likely recovery period.  The Medical expert decides and records in his report - the fixed amount of compensation you will receive. 

Please note that this only applies to soft tissue injuries following a car accident that occurred after the 1st of June 2021.

 

Legal Costs Relating to Non-Tariff Injuries

Legal costs relating to non tariff injuries are additional to the above fixed costs for tariff injuries are fixed and are calculated based upon the level of compensation that your non tariff injury receives:

Non tariff injury value                                    Costs

Up to £1000.00                                                   £250.00

Between £1000.00 and £2,000.00                £500.00

Between £2000.00 and £3,000.00                £750.00

Between £2,000.00 and £4,000.00                £1000.00

Between £4,000.00 and £5,000.00                £1250.00

 

Legal Costs for Injury Awards above £5,000

 

If the tariff and non tariff compensation awards exceed £5,000.00 then your case will no longer be subject to the Fixed Legal Costs as outlined above.

Instead, you will receive compensation subject to the agreed deductions as set out in the Conditional Fee Agreement and limited to a total of 25% of the damages you receive. If your case is unsuccessful then you will obviously receive no compensation but you will have no legal costs to pay.

Our costs are inclusive of VAT.

Personal Injury Compensation and Injury Claim Procedure.

Injury Claim Compensation settlement amounts comprise of two separate parts, General and Special damages:

General Damages in Personal Injury Compensation Claim Settlement Values.

General Damages are paid to compensate you for post-accident pain and suffering experienced as a result of your accident-related injuries and any loss of amenity. They will also take into account the traumatic nature of the accident itself.

At the first stage, it’s very important for us to address your immediate well-being and healthcare needs. We must also start the process of evaluating the level of general damages matching your injury. This will be achieved by instructing a medical expert to both assess you physically and to prepare a report for your accident-related claim.

The expert will be given a full copy of your GP records which we will request in confidence. The medical expert may recommend treatment that will assist your recovery for which the insurers of the person responsible for causing your accident may be asked to pay.

The medical expert will advise us on the degree of your injuries and any likely ongoing effects caused by your injury.

Where significant injuries are sustained, the impact on your future life cannot always be known immediately and in some cases not even for a long period of time. The Medial experts will also consider whether any pre-existing health conditions have been heightened by your accident.

Subject to what the report says, we will be more likely to accurately advise you of your general damage claim value. This will be assessed from the date of the accident to the date of recovery (or estimated date of recovery) if you have not yet fully recovered.

Special Damages in Personal Injury Compensation Claim Settlement Values.

Special Damages are calculated based on any financial losses you may have suffered as a direct result of your accident, including any future financial implications that may be incurred to help you recover, to compensate where the ability to continue in your chosen career as well as future career prospects are prohibited due to your injuries, and also to regain and maintain the best form of independent life.

Financial loss or additional expenditure, such as loss of earnings or bills for additional medical treatments and therapies will be covered by Special damages. In severe cases, special damages will need to cover modifications to your home or vehicle and unfortunately where people suffer life-changing injury, possibly even the provision of round-the-clock care.

Personal care expenses can also be taken into account, including needing support on school runs or friends/relatives supporting you in daily life, or chores around the house undertaken by friends and/or relatives as a direct results of your injuries, Prescriptions and/or medicines you have paid for, such as painkillers or any other medical items. Travel expenses based on bus or taxi fares to the hospital, or doctor, or to see your Solicitor and telephone bills, damage to clothing or any other personal effects... all will be taken into account.

Some of these items may seem inconsequential at a time when your only thought should be that of recovery, but they can all add up to place a further burden on you or your family, through no fault of your own.  As such, and as our case progresses, we will support you in order to best describe how much you have been inconvenienced as a direct result of your accident.

In order to support the ‘special damages’ aspect of your claim, you would be required to provide us with various documents including copies of your wage slips and receipts for items paid. Therefore it’s very important for you to keep copies of all receipts and information to support you with your claim.

We would also require details of any activities (even if they are only minor) such as driving, going upstairs, cooking, cleaning, and washing which you have been unable to do because of your accident. Providing details of care provided, as trivial as it may sound, will undoubtedly support your case in this situation.

How are Multiple Injury Compensation Claims calculated?

As a result of having numerous injuries in an accident, which are defined as being injuries to different parts of the body that happen as a result of a single accident or neglectful act, can have a shattering effect on the injured person’s life.

Therefore, the calculations for compensation surrounding multiple injuries are calculated on each case individually and will take into account the influence that the injuries have had altogether on your life. Multiple injury claims are considerably more complex, which in turn could take longer to process, depending on recovery time and the severity of the multiple injury accident.

For a specific type of accident, one of the following compensation calculators may be more of use to you:
