How much will I get for my cycling accident compensation claim?
There are two parts to compensation for cycling accident claims.
The first part of the compensation in a cycling accident claim is for your pain and suffering and for all the things that you are unable to do because of the cycling accident, such as sports and hobbies. This part of the claim is assessed with the assistance of expert medical evidence that will detail the injuries caused by your cycling accident. We arrange your medical examination and report. This part of the cycling accident claim can also include compensation for being forced to give up a job that you enjoy.
The second part of your award will be for your financial losses and expenses, both past and future. Compensation for your financial losses will be assessed according to the evidence that we can piece together to show what you have lost. This can include
- loss of earnings;
- travel costs to and from hospital appointments;
- the cost of any care and assistance you have received (even if it is from relatives);
- aids and equipment made necessary by the cycling injury;
- loss of pension
In more serious cycling accident claims you will also receive compensation for the cost of a full care package and of running your financial affairs.
