What factors affect my Foot Injury Claim

  • Your age at the time of the accident. Younger people with longer to live typically receive larger compensation awards for injuries sustained to their foot
  • The severity of the  foot injury. Minor cuts and bruises to the feet will receive lower compensation amounts compared with broken bones in the foot
  • The length of time taken to recover from the accident. Feet heel quicker than backs. Personal Injuries that resolve themselves within weeks will receive less compensation than those that take several years  or those that  leave the victim with permanent symptoms.
  • Whether the foot injury caused a level of disability or severe lack of mobility. Some personal injuries can result in  a permanent level of disability
