Hand injury compensation claim solicitors

What are some common causes of hand injuries?

Our hands can be injured in a wide range of different circumstances. Hard impact or crushing accidents are common reasons hands are injured. Most frequently, hand injuries result in bruising, injuries to tendons, pulled muscles, and fractured or broken bones. 

Hand injuries are often caused through accidents at work, following road traffic accidents, slips, trips and falls, and while playing sports. If you've injured your hand in any of these or another way and it was due to someone else's negligence, we might be able to help you.

What can I receive hand injury claims compensation for?

Although common, a hand injury can have a significant impact on you. There are a few typical injuries you could make a hand injury claim for. They include:

• A broken or fractured hand: If you sustained a fractured or broken hand at work you could claim broken hand at work compensation. 
• A damaged dominant hand: Your life could be affected by damage to your dominant hand. Getting the dominant hand injury settlement you deserve could help get your life back on track.
• A crushed hand: This injury is particularly common at work. Hand crush injury compensation could help you recover any lost earnings because of your injury. 

If you've suffered from any of these or other hand injuries that weren't your fault, you could make a hand injury compensation claim. Contact our friendly legal experts on for more advice.

How much compensation will I get for my hand injury?

Unfortunately, there is no definitive answer to the question of how much hand injury compensation you might receive. 

Each hand injury compensation claim is assessed on its own set of circumstances. This includes factoring in pain and suffering, loss of earnings, future loss of earnings, adaptations to your lifestyle and more. 

As a general guide, we refer to the 15th edition of the Judicial College Guidelines, as set out by the Ministry of Justice. The below table shows the estimated compensation amount that you could be awarded, depending on your hand injury type.
