Whiplash Claims

If you have been unfortunate enough to suffer an injury as a result of being involved in a vehicle collision you may be experiencing the symptoms of whiplash (where the soft tissues in the neck have been stretched beyond their normal comfort zone causing pain and discomfort). If so, you may be wondering what action you should take, the length of time it may take you to recover from your injuries and what time of treatment is available. If you are considering making a claim for compensation for the injuries you have suffered you need expert advice from specialist solicitors who can answer these questions for you. Loyalty Law can put you in touch with expert solicitors who will act fast and efficiently to ensure that you have all the information you need in order to pursue a claim.

How do you know whether you are suffering from whiplash?

A whiplash injury causes pain and discomfort in the back of your neck and back and also causes stiffness and restricted movement in these areas. You may also suffer from dizziness and pins and needles in your hands and arms. The symptoms of whiplash can take up to two days to appear so may not be immediately apparent following the road traffic accident.

As well as making a claim for compensation for your pain and suffering (called your ‘general damages’ claim) you are also entitled to claim for your out of pocket expenses (called your ‘special damages’ claim).

Your claim for out of pocket expenses

You are entitled to claim for any loss that has been incurred as a direct result of the accident. This may include the following items:-

• Additional transport costs;
• Lost overtime;
• Medical expenses;
• Lost earnings incurred as a result of the accident;
• Private medical treatment;
• All other expenses incurred as a direct result of the accident.
