A foot injury is one of the most common of all inflictions. It occurs so easily that there doesn't need to be a dramatic accident or extreme incident on someone else's part - it can occur simply as a result of them not doing something, such as failing to maintain a pavement.
Can I claim compensation for a foot injury?
Most common causes of foot injury are playing sports and road traffic accidents, but even a slight stumble can cause a sprain which can take some time to heal. As sprains are sustained so easily compensation for slight injury is relatively low and many believe they cannot claim for tripping over something. This is not the case. If you fall over and twist your ankle because you stumbled over a broken or unlevel paving slab, those responsible for maintaining the area concerned may well be liable on the grounds of negligence. This would be the land or building owner, local authority etc., depending on whether it is on public or private property.
How much compensation can I get for a foot injury?
For a minor fracture such as a broken toe with full recovery, compensation can be up to £3,000. More severe foot injury, which causes difficulty walking. long-term disability and discomfort has a guideline range of £7,000 to £26,000. For the most severe damage including permanent deformity or amputation of the entire foot, £40,000 to £55,000 can be awarded.
