Lower body injuries

We know how much of an impact a lower body injury can have on your life. This type of injury is likely to make it hard for you to walk or drive, and this can affect your social life, job and family.

It's also likely that you've had to take time off work as a result of your accident. If this is the case, then you may have had reduced pay or no pay at all during this time. Lost earnings can mean you may be unable to pay your bills or support your family.

When making your claim, your solicitor will consider any costs or impacts your injury has caused. These may include:

• Lost earnings in the past and the future
• The impact on your social life and leisure activities
• The costs of care and travel, even if given for free by a friend or family member
• The future impact on your employment opportunities
• Medical treatment and costs of equipment
• The impact to your emotional health
• The impact your injury has had on your family

Our solicitors look at each case on an individual basis and negotiate your compensation depending on all of the factors and consequences of your injury. This means we're unable to tell you how much compensation you could receive when you contact us.

However, if you would like an estimate of the amount you may be owed, you can use our industry leading compensation calculator.

Our calculator gives a guideline amount that your claim could be worth based on your answers to six questions.

For more information or to find out whether you could claim, you can get in touch with us for free on .

Over our years_since years, we've helped people to claim for a huge variety of different types of injury.

Here are some examples of the types of lower body injury we've helped people to claim for in the past:

• Hip injuries
• Leg injuries
• Knee injuries
• Groin injuries

If your experience isn't listed above, then don't worry. As long as your accident happened within the last three years and was caused by someone else, or was due to somebody's negligence or careless behaviour, then there's a good chance we can help you.

We realise that in some cases your injury may have been particularly severe, in which case you may be faced with life-changing consequences.

If this applies to you or a loved one, then we're sorry. We appreciate how difficult it can be to recover from a major injury, and sometimes it can feel like there's no way out.

Although we can't stop serious injuries from happening, we can help you make a claim for compensation which could cover the costs of medical treatment, time off work, equipment, care, and any other impact your injury has had on you and your family.
