What is a serious injury?
In the UK, a serious injury is classed as an injury that has long-lasting effects on the life of the person who suffered the injury and/or their family members.
This definition covers any kind of injury, provided that the injury has a significant impact on the injury sufferer’s life. Often, serious injuries necessitate that the sufferer requires ongoing care, rehabilitation or adaptations.
This means serious injury can cover injuries such as burns, disablement, head injuries, spinal injuries, and more.

Serious injury claim FAQs
-
How do I know if my injury is serious enough for a claim?
In the UK, any injury sustained as a result of someone else’s negligence can form the basis of a compensation claim. However, to qualify under ‘serious injury,’ your claim must meet the legal definition of a serious injury listed above: an injury that has significant long-term impact on your quality of life.
-
Do I have to speak to a medical professional before filing a serious injury claim?
As part of the serious injury claim process, you will have to speak to a medical professional to prove the seriousness of your injury and its impact on your life. This is a vital step in terms of helping us value your claim.
However, you do not have to speak to a medical professional before filing a serious injury claim – this can be done after the fact. That said, documentation is vital. We recommend seeing a GP or attending A&E as soon as possible after the injury is sustained.
