Fatality Compensation Claims

Most personal injury claims are brought by the injured person themselves.  In some cases however, this is not possible due to the serious nature of the injury, and the family may be entitled to bring a claim on behalf of their loved one.

No amount of money can compensate for losing a loved one.  The financial impact that such a loss can have, even though secondary to the grief, must not be ignored so to avoid any financial hardship.

The amount of compensation that can be recovered will depend on the circumstances, and  it may be prudent to seek advise from experienced, specialist solicitors who will be happy to provide further information on exactly who is entitled to claim, and what they can claim for, on a true no win , no fee* basis.

Whilst there can be a claim for the pain and discomfort related to the injury itself, provided it was caused by the negligent actions of another party, there are also other heads of damage that can be recovered.  These include a dependency claim, for family members who were financially dependent on the deceased person prior to the accident, a statutory bereavement award, funeral costs, loss of services, etc .

The calculation of the amount of compensation due to the victim’s estate or dependents is complex and will require the expertise of a specialist personal injury solicitor, to ensure that you receive the full compensation to which you are entitled.
