What is a Personal Injury Claim?

‘Personal Injury’ covers many different types of accidents or otherwise where injuries are sustained due to someone else’s negligence, carelessness, or wilful physical attack. Although motor vehicle accidents are the most common examples, the law also covers injuries caused by consumer products, or by animals such as pets, as well as medical negligence.

How Personal Injury Claims Work

Personal injury claims can be complicated because there are many ways a personal injury can happen. The most common way to claim for compensation is to sue for negligence. And to do that, you must be able to show that the other party owed you a duty of care, breached that duty of care resulting in your personal injury, and caused damage that is of a foreseeable nature.  For this reason, we generally advise not trying to work on settlements yourself.

At Yuen Law can advise you on:

  • The merits of your case.
  • The likelihood of success of your claim.
  • Potential compensation amount.

In this way, you’re likely to get the best result whichever actions you choose. To support your claim, we recommend keeping detailed records, such as hospital bills, medical certificates, income tax statements, and pay slips.

Time Limits for Making a Personal Injury Claim

Claims must be made within three years of the accident, so the earlier you act the better it is.
