Catastrophic injuries often cause permanent or long-term changes that affect mobility, independence, employment, and future earnings.
A recent client suffered a spinal cord injury after a collision involving a hidden pothole. His rehabilitation required therapy, and long-term medical support. Future losses, including reduced earning potential and lifelong care, formed the largest part of his final settlement.
These injuries demand specialist representation to assess medical needs, evidence future losses, and secure the resources required for long-term independence.
● Interim payments to fund urgent treatment and essential care
● Liaison with local authorities to arrange therapy and care packages
● Housing assessments, adaptations, or relocation planning
● Access to rehabilitation specialists and trusted support networks
● Benefits and entitlement reviews for financial stability
● Personal injury trust arrangements to protect compensation
We provide compassionate support while pursuing justice from those responsible. Our goal is not only to win your case but to protect your future.
Serious injury compensation reflects the long-term physical, psychological, and financial consequences of your accident. High-value claims often include extensive medical needs and significant future losses.
General damages compensate for pain, reduced mobility, psychological trauma, and loss of independence. The amount reflects injury severity and long-term prognosis.
Special damages cover measurable losses such as treatment, medication, lost earnings, and care. Future losses can be substantial when mobility, employment, or independence is permanently affected.
Compensation can fund physiotherapy, psychological therapy, occupational therapy, and long-term medical support. Interim payments may cover early rehabilitation while the claim is ongoing.
Claims include the cost of professional carers, family support, and long-term case management. Serious injuries often require structured daily assistance and coordinated therapy.
Compensation can cover mobility aids, prosthetics, wheelchairs, vehicle adaptations, and home modifications. Larger claims include lifetime replacement cycles for specialist equipment.
If your home is no longer suitable, compensation can fund alternative accommodation or adaptations such as wider doorways, accessible bathrooms, ramps, or single-level living.
During a routine shift, our client drove over a water-covered pothole while operating a forklift truck. The impact caused a severe spinal injury that left him unable to move. Hospital assessments confirmed the long-term nature of his injuries.
He spent months in specialist hospitals and rehabilitation centres, including the Spinal Hospital in Salford and Sandpipers in Southport. Progress was slow, but continued rehabilitation supported his return to partial mobility and daily independence.
Our serious injury solicitors secured multiple interim payments to fund accessible housing, mobility equipment, therapy, psychological support, and case management. We worked with leading barristers and medical experts to evidence lifelong needs and future losses.
The case concluded with a £3.7 million settlement, recognising the extensive care, treatment, and long-term impact of his injury. The compensation allowed him to secure suitable accommodation, specialist equipment, and greater independence.

A £50,000 Compensation Payout After a Devastating Head-On Crash

A serious injury causes long-term physical, psychological, or financial impact and often requires ongoing treatment, rehabilitation, or specialist care.
A specialist solicitor investigates liability, gathers evidence, assesses future needs, and manages insurer negotiations.
Most claims must start within three years. Exceptions apply for children and individuals without mental capacity.
Compensation depends on injury severity, future care needs, lost earnings, rehabilitation costs, and adaptation requirements.
Most cases settle without a hearing, but your solicitor will prepare the case for court if liability or damages are disputed.
