Medical Negligence Cases

Medical negligence can occur in many different scenarios, such as when you are having a medical procedure done at the dentist’s office or in surgery. You could also be the victim of medical negligence if you receive medical advice or a diagnosis that is incorrect and ultimately harmful.

Poor medical advice/misdiagnosis could potentially be harmful because it could delay you getting the treatment that you do actually need early enough. If you have suffered as a result of medical negligence, you may be able to claim compensation.

Accidents at Work

No matter the industry that you work in, your employer should ensure that you are safe while at work. This includes upholding the health and safety standards that are relevant to your industry, such as personal protective equipment or training.

If your employer has failed to uphold these health and safety standards and this has resulted in you being injured in an accident, you may be able to claim compensation. Similarly, if another employee has acted negligently and this has caused you to be injured in an accident, you may be able to claim compensation.

Accidents in Public Places

Accidents can happen anywhere, even if you are just walking along the street. If you have been injured in an accident that wasn’t your fault while in a business, you may be able to claim compensation against the business owners.

Similarly, if you have been injured while out on the street, such as falling over an uneven curb, you may be able to claim against a local authority like Norwich City Council. To find out how much compensation you might be owed, speak to First Personal Injury today.

Accidents on the Road

Road traffic accidents can impact anyone who travels by road/pavement, even if you are a passenger, pedestrian or a cyclist. If you have been injured due to a road traffic accident that wasn’t your fault, you may be able to claim compensation as a result.

Compensation can often help to recuperate any financial losses that you might have incurred due to the accident, such as damage to your car or a loss of income due to being unable to work.

How much compensation am I owed?

Compensation is decided on a case by case basis, taking into account the pain and suffering caused by your injuries and the impact that these injuries have had upon your ability to function/your amenity. For example, if you can no longer complete tasks that you normally could, you may be able to be compensated for this loss of ability.

Compensation also takes financial loss into account. If you have experienced a loss of income due to your injuries, then it may be possible to account for this loss of income through compensation. Similarly, if you have had to pay for treatment or other costs associated with your injuries, it may be possible to claim these costs back through compensation.

To calculate how much compensation you could be owed, use our compensation calculator. However, it is important to remember that these figures are just estimates based upon previous cases. The best way to determine how much compensation you are likely to receive in your case is to speak directly to a personal injury solicitor.

How do I make a claim?

At first, you must provide some initial details about your accident in Norwich – such as the date it occurred and where it happened. If you have any documents related to the accident, such as medical transcripts, photographs, witness details or notes, you should keep these safe as they could be used as important pieces of evidence in your case.
