Start Your Claim NowIf you need advice about motorbike arm injury claims when it comes to what to do and what you may be able to recover in compensation, we can help.
Injuries to limbs like arms can be common in motorcycle accident cases given the lack of protection a bike offers when a crash takes place. Such injuries can often be serious in high-speed collisions, and it’s important for victims to know their rights when it comes to whether they can claim and what they can claim for.
Here’s a little guidance on the subject of arm injuries suffered by motorbike riders and what can be done about it.
Motorbike arm injury claims can be launched where you’re the victim of someone else’s negligence on the road. Whether a driver has pulled out in front of you, or hit you on a roundabout, you can be entitled to make a claim for personal injury compensation if the accident was another road user’s fault.
If we consider there are reasonable protects to succeed with the claim, we can offer you No Win, No Fee representation.
As with any other case, pay-outs and awards for motorbike arm injury claims depend on the extent and the severity of any suffering and loss the victim endures.
We usually work this out using expert medical reports and evidence of any losses and expenses you incur, like lost earnings from time off work or treatment and medical expenses.
We also use official guidelines to assist with valuing the claim as well. For these kinds of injuries, they read as follows:
Injuries that are close to, but not quite, amputation can attract even higher awards of up to around £100,000.00. Amputations can then reach over £250,000.00.
When it comes to serious motorbike arm injury claims, there’s a great deal more to consider than just the pay-out for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity. The above guideline figures only take that part of the claim into account, and the bigger part of the case may be the claim for Special Damages.
Special Damages is for the losses and expenses which may be suffered for life. Our advice is to take a look at our Serious Injury Claims Team page here and speak to them when it comes to permanent injuries.
