Back Injury Compensation

An individual can make a back injury claim if they have suffered an injury to their back that has arisen through the negligence of a third party. If the injury you’re experiencing can be linked to the negligent actions of a private or NHS medical professional, negligent employer, council or landowner, or reckless motorist, there may be a right to bring a potential claim for back injury compensation. You can get specific guidance on the details of your case through the expert advice of a back injury solicitor, but common causes of back injury compensation claims include:

• Undiagnosed back injury, resulting in further damage;
• Surgical errors that possibly could lead to a back injury;
• Misdiagnosis of a fracture, causing a more severe back injury;
• Workplace injury caused by lack of safety equipment or training from an employer;
• Slipping or tripping accident at work or anywhere else e.g. shops, pavements etc;
• Road traffic accident caused by another motorist;
• Criminal injury compensation claim;
