Polytrauma Claims

What is Polytrauma?

Polytrauma occurs when an individual sustains several serious injuries simultaneously. These injuries could involve damage to the head, neck, spine, chest, limbs, or internal organs. The extent of the injuries often requires immediate, comprehensive medical treatment, and in many cases, long-term rehabilitation. The complexity of polytrauma injuries can make recovery difficult, and the consequences may impact an individual’s quality of life, livelihood, and future health.

Common examples of polytrauma include traumatic brain injuries combined with broken bones, organ damage, and spinal cord injuries, which may require extensive surgeries and long-term care. The injuries can also lead to chronic pain, mobility issues, or permanent disabilities, necessitating ongoing medical treatment, rehabilitation, and support.

How Polytrauma Claims Work

If you or a loved one has suffered polytrauma as a result of an accident caused by another party’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation. A polytrauma claim seeks to recover financial damages for the injuries sustained, as well as any associated costs such as medical expenses, loss of earnings, and emotional distress.

The process of making a polytrauma claim typically involves the following steps:

1. Consultation: Your first step is to consult with a solicitor specializing in personal injury claims. At HPA Solicitors Ltd, we offer a free initial consultation to assess the merits of your case and discuss the details of the injuries sustained.

2. Evidence Gathering: To build a strong case, your solicitor will work with medical professionals to gather evidence of the severity and long-term effects of the injuries. This may include medical reports, witness statements, and accident reports.

3. Making the Claim: Once the evidence is gathered, your solicitor will file a claim with the responsible party’s insurance company. If the at-fault party denies liability or the insurer refuses to offer a fair settlement, your solicitor may take further legal action, including court proceedings.

4. Compensation: If your claim is successful, compensation can cover a range of damages, including medical treatment, rehabilitation costs, lost income, travel expenses, pain and suffering, and the emotional impact of the injuries.
