Here’s a little guidance for you. Read on for more information and how you can speak to our team as an injured rider about making a claim for personal injury compensation today.

How we value compensation claims

When it comes to how we may value a motorbike wrist injury compensation case, we can look at the following key areas:

• Compensation for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity caused, often referred to as General Damages;
• Compensation for any losses and expenses like lost earnings from time off work, or medication expenses, travel expenses, and even care and assistance expense. These are usually known as Special Damages, and can cover a great deal of things.

We can then combine these two elements to form the whole amount of a compensation claim. We can use evidence such as medical expert reports, wages slips, receipts, and other documents to prove the losses.

Motorbike wrist injury compensation values

When it comes to motorbike wrist injury compensation values, we can use official guidelines to assist in rough ideas of estimates as follows:

• Simple fractures could be worth around £4,000.00;
• A Colles’ fracture can be in the region of £6,500.00;
• Longer recovery times can mean the damages can rise up to £9,000.00;
• Where there’s a degree of permanent issues: around £20,000.00;
• Significant permanent disability but where movement remains: around £35,000.00;
• Complete loss of function: around £52,000.00.

This doesn’t include the Special Damages element for losses and expense which, in serious cases, can make up for the larger proportion of a claim. If you can no longer work ever again and you had a very specific career that paid well, you may be entitled to a significant loss of earnings claims.
