That depends on a few things. Back injuries can vary a lot in severity, so the compensation does too. Here's what affects your payout:
- The type of injury: Is it a slipped disc, muscular damage, or something even worse? This needs medical assessment.
- Long-term impact: Will you make a full recovery, or are you left with ongoing pain or reduced mobility?
- Lost wages: If you've been unable to work, or had to take a lower-paid job, this is factored in.
- Other costs: Things like physiotherapy, travel to appointments, or even home adaptations can all be included.
- It's not just a number: A serious back injury can turn your life upside down. That's why we fight to make sure your compensation reflects the full impact.
