comercrawley will assist in putting together a detailed list of all your losses and expenses to support your accident injury compensation claim. Your claim for compensation will be split into two parts:
 General Damages (your personal injury)
This is the compensation paid for your injuries and reflects the pain, suffering and loss of amenity caused to you, both in the past and in the future.
Compensation will also be paid if your injuries have caused you to suffer a cosmetic blemish, for example scarring.
You may also be able to claim additional accident injury compensation for being at a disadvantage in the job market as a result of your injury, or if you cannot continue in your chosen career.
comercrawley will advise you as to the appropriate value of your general damages claim once final medical evidence has been obtained. In doing so, we will refer to judicial guidelines and previous court decisions.
