Pelvic Injuries

If you or a loved one has suffered a pelvic injury as a result of someone’s negligence or carelessness, then you could be entitled to compensation for your injury and its consequences, including any loss of earnings you have suffered as a result.

What is a pelvic injury?

Pelvic injuries are often caused by a trauma, such as an impact to the lower body commonly seen as a result of a road traffic accident, a slip or fall or a workplace incident.

Pelvic injuries can be very serious and affect people and their loved ones in different ways. Our pelvic injury solicitors understand that no two injuries are the same, so we make sure that you are thoroughly assessed by a medical professional to ensure you get the best possible support.

As well as providing sensitive advice and support, our pelvic injury experts can put you in touch with a number of organisations that can help you with everything from rehabilitation, mobility assistance and home modifications, to counselling and support for you and your family.

No win, no fee

Most of the pelvic injury claims we support are handled on a no win, no fee basis, which means:

• If you win your case your opponent will pay the majority of your legal costs. Any legal costs not paid by your opponent and the lawyer’s success fee will be deducted from the compensation that you receive.
• If you lose your case, you will not have to pay any legal costs unless we advise you otherwise

How long do I have to make a pelvic injury claim?

You usually have up to three years from the date of the accident or knowing about your injury to start a pelvic injury claim. There are some exceptions and we will advise you about these when we speak. We recommend that you contact us as soon as possible, so our personal injury lawyers can explain the process of claiming compensation, start your claim and help you access any other support and/or rehabilitation you need.

How much compensation could I receive?

Every pelvic injury is different and so is its impact on you or your loved one. That’s why it is important to get expert advice from qualified specialist lawyers who really understand the unique nature of each personal injury claim and who are experienced in working with medical professionals to truly understand the impact of your injuries and how these may affect you in the long term.

The amount you can claim will depend on a number of factors, including the severity of your injury, any financial losses you have suffered or will suffer in the future, and any changes to your lifestyle that you have to make as a result of your injuries. Whatever the injury, our specialist personal injury lawyers will ensure that you get the compensation and support you are entitled to.
