Many adults suffer fractures, in public and at work, as the result of accidents which were not their fault. If you are unfortunate enough to be one of the thousands of adults who suffer fractures every year, it is important to be aware of the legal options available to you, should you wish to pursue a personal injury claim.
Fractures in accidents caused by negligence
Adults who suffer fractures in the workplace or in public often do so after slips, trips or falls caused by the negligence of another party. Although a fracture can involve physical suffering, it can also involve an amount of emotional anguish.
A fracture might require a period of treatment or rehabilitation and many adults who suffer serious fractures cannot continue working until it has healed or may have to leave work permanently.
A compensation claim may cover the costs of treatment and potential loss of earnings for adults who have suffered a serious fracture.
