Personal injury compensation claim following a car accident - seeing a medical expert
Personal injury compensation claim advice is
available for people who have suffered an injury due to a non-fault accident. If you have been injured in a car accident or
motorcycle accident that was not your fault, we can help you make a claim for personal injury compensation.
Seeking medical attention
If you have suffered a personal injury in a car accident you should seek medical attention as soon as possible. Even if
your injuries were not apparent at the time of the car accident, it
is quite usual for symptoms (especially whiplash injury) to develop over the following days. If you have any injury
symptoms at all following a car accident, please seek advice from
your GP or local hospital as soon as possible.
It will help your personal injury compensation
claim if there are medical records of your injuries and any treatment you have received following the car accident.
Keeping an injury diary
If you instruct us to help you pursue a claim for car accident
compensation, we will ask you to start keeping an injury diary to support your personal injury compensation claim. You
should keep a daily diary of your injuries and the effect they are having on your day to day activities. Click here to download a free personal injury diary. You
should use the diary to record both the physical symptoms of your injury, any treatment you receive or medication you are
taking, and the effect the injuries are having on you (e.g. time off work, problems sleeping, flash backs etc). You
should continue using the diary until you have fully recovered.
Seeing a medical expert
Should you decide to instruct us to help you pursue a claim for personal injury compensation, in a few months time an appointment will be arranged for you to see an
independent medical expert at a location within close proximity
to your home. They will prepare a report regarding the extent of your injuries, your recovery and any on-going or
long-term symptoms.
The purpose of this report is to provide independent evidence to support your claim and to help our
solicitor put a realistic figure on the amount of personal injury
compensation to be claimed. You will be asked to sign a Medical Consent Form, to give the medical expert access to
your medical records and any x-rays or notes from treatment you received following the accident.
Please take your personal injury diary
with you to any appointments you have with the medical expert.
