How Long Will It Take
to Claim
Compensation? |
|
The
length of time your claim will take to settle will depend on:
Your
injury
Minor injuries, for example, sprains, bruising, will settle far
quicker than more complex, serious injuries, such as broken bones, spinal/head
injury.
Your medical prognosis
An independent medical expert
will need to examine and assess your injuries and advise if there are likely to
be any long-term affects. Only then, using this medical report, is your
solicitor able to determine a fair figure of compensation.
