Whiplash Compensation

Whiplash claims – how much compensation can you expect?

Every whiplash claim is different. Just like every accident or injury is unique. So there is no exact figure or set amount that we can promise you will receive if your whiplash claim is successful.

We can however give you a rough idea of what you could expect to receive if your whiplash claim is successful.

As you can see, the following figures demonstrate how much compensation can vary, depending on each individual whiplash claim case.

  • If you make a complete recovery within 1 year          £750 – £2500
  • If you make a complete recovery within 2 years         £2500 – £4250
  • If your recovery is slow with increased vulnerability         £4250 – £7750
  • If you have permanent ongoing symptoms             £7750 – £13750

Remember – at whiplashclaim.com our expert, local lawyers will make sure you get 100% of the compensation you are awarded.

The amount of compensation you are likely to receive for whiplash claim depends on a number of factors, including:

  • How bad your injuries are
  • How long it takes for you to recover
  • The effect on your day-to-day life
  • Any financial losses you have suffered

Compensation for financial losses doesn’t just include loss of earnings. We make sure you are also compensated for any damaged clothes, medical bills or travel expenses that you have incurred.

And also not all solicitors will be able to obtain the same amount of compensation for your whiplash claim.

What exactly can you claim for?

If you have suffered a whiplash injury in an accident that wasn’t your fault, there are different ways you can make a whiplash compensation claim.

  • General Damages – this is compensation for the pain and suffering you have experienced as result of your injuries.
  • Special Damages – this is compensation for your financial losses since the accident, including medical treatment and loss of earnings.
  • Future Losses – this is compensation for losses in the future, such as ongoing medical bills, or if you are unable to work.

How much will making a whiplash claim cost you?

Absolutely nothing. We won’t charge you a penny. Our fees are recovered from the defendant and are entirely separate from your compensation. You get 100% of what you are entitled to – no fees and no costs.
