Whiplash is probably one of the most common injuries resulting from road accidents. It results from the dramatic acceleration and deceleration your body goes through as your vehicle is involved in a crash. Although not as severe as a lot of other injuries resulting from road traffic accidents, it can be very painful and disruptive for the victim, lasting anywhere from three months to six months, and possibly have minor after effects lasting even longer.
Fortunately, it is possible to claim compensation for whiplash. You'll not only be able to claim for the physical pain and inconvenience it has caused you, but also for any financial loss that you may have experienced as a direct result of your whiplash. Financial losses you may have experienced can come in the form of income that you have missed out on, due to time off work taken for hospital treatment, and medical expenses that you may have incurred.
So it is definitely worthwhile making a compensation for whiplash claim, especially if the accident was through no fault of your own.
Before making a compensation for whiplash claim, you'll want to make sure you have as much evidence as possible to support your claim. This evidence will most likely come in the form of medical reports and statements from your doctor, proving that you do in fact have whiplash and not just something less severe. Any other forms of back up will be helpful, such as an employer statement proving that you were unable to attend work, if that was indeed the case.
In order to help with putting your case forward, it would be wise to work with a solicitor that specializes in whiplash claims. You will be able to hire them on a "no win, no fee" basis, meaning you don't pay any fees unless you actually win your case. On top of that, if you are successful with your claim, then the fees will come out of the final settlement amount that the insurance company pays out.
In conclusion, seeking compensation for whiplash involves going through pretty much the same process of making a claim as you would with any other accident or injury. You'll need as much proof as possible in order to convey your claim as strongly as possible, and seeking the help of a whiplash compensation solicitor will ensure that the process runs as smoothly as possible and as quickly as possible whilst making sure you get an amount that is fair for your situation.
You may be concerned whether making a claim for whiplash is really worth the time and effort involved or not. This ultimately will depend on the severity of your whiplash and how much it has affected your life. If the accident was the fault of another driver, then you stand a good chance of winning your claim and receiving fair compensation for whiplash. This will be an easier decision for some sufferers than others, but the decision is ultimately up to you.
