Leg Injury Compensation Claims, Scotland

Leg injuries are some of the most common personal injury claims we see. Side effects of leg injuries include:

Pain.
Swelling.
Reduced mobility.

Leg injury compensation claims are varied, partly because of the many ways your legs could be injured. Leg injuries can be caused by slips, trips or falls. Sports injuries to the leg are common, and the legs are one of the most vulnerable body parts if you are in a car crash.

If you have injured your legs in any way, through the negligence of someone else, then you will be able to make a leg injury claim with help from personal injury lawyers at Jones Whyte.

Even if you believe your injury is minor, making a claim can be very important. It helps to ensure lessons are learned and people aren’t injured in the same way in the future.

Making leg injury claims

You usually have three years from the incident to make a claim. However, we would encourage you to begin the claims process as quickly as possible. This means witnesses will remember the incident more clearly, making evidence gathering easier.

While the details of every leg injury claim are different, the basic process is the same.

It starts by giving a statement to one of our specialist lawyers. This can help to establish exactly how you were injured and who was responsible.

During the claim, we can help you access specialist medical care, such as physiotherapy, to help aid your recovery.

We will also gather any supporting evidence. This can include:

Medical reports.
Witness statements.
Expert testimony.

The type of evidence can vary a lot, depending on the type of claim. If you were injured at work, it may include health and safety policies and inspection records. If you were injured by a fall in the street, it may include maintenance records and inspections.

Most injury claims are settled out of court. If court action is required, we will be able to support you throughout.
