If you have suffered a knee injury as a result of a motorbike accident, you could be eligible to make a compensation claim. We will usually look at two things when making a claim: general damages and special damages. General damages can include any mobility problems caused by injuries, any effect your injuries have had on your domestic, social and work life, and any scarring – both physically and mentally.
Special damages will usually cover any loss of earnings from time off work, repair or replacement costs for your motorbike, hire provisions, medical expenses, policy excess recovery, and any travel expenses to and from appointments. There can be other recoverable expenses also.
When it comes to injury claims as a result of motorbike accidents, we can give you rough guidance on claim amounts. In the case of knee injuries, there are some brackets that your knee injury could come under, and two of these are the “severe” or “moderate” categories which we will go into further.
Each knee injury claim is subject to medical assessment as well as our own expertise, so amounts will vary.
Severe knee injury damages can range between £76,600 – £20,800.
A serious knee injury is usually where there has been disruption of the joint, the development of osteoarthritis, gross ligamentous damage, lengthy treatment, considerable pain, and loss of function. Such claims could be valued between £55,500 to £76,600.
In the case of a leg fracture extending into the knee joint causing pain, which is constant, permanent, causing limiting movement, or impairing agility and rendering the injured person prone to osteoarthritis, and a risk of arthroplasty, victims could receive in the region of £41,500 to £55,500.
Less severe injuries than those above and/or injuries that result in less severe disability issues can be valued at lower amounts. There may be continuing symptoms by way of pain and discomfort and limitation of movement or instability or deformity, where victims could claim between £20,880 to £34,660.
Moderate knee injuries – including injuries involving dislocation, torn cartilage or meniscus which results in minor instability, wasting, weakness, or other mild future disability. As well as any less serious injuries involving shorter periods of acceleration or exacerbation, and also lacerations, twisting or bruising injuries. Victims could claim anywhere up to £10,900 to £20,800.
