A simple fracture is a crack or break in the bone which does not pierce the skin. Thousands of people suffer simple fractures every year as the result of accidents which were not their fault and, in these cases, a compensation claim may be possible.
Legal Advice Helpline is happy to provide information if you want to pursue a claim for a simple fracture.
Common causes of simple fractures
Simple fractures often occur after slips, trips or falls. If you have suffered an accident that resulted in a simple fracture, in order for your claim to be successful you will need to be able to demonstrate that the accident occurred as the result of the negligence of another party.
A simple fracture may be extremely painful and cause both physical and mental suffering. You may require treatment, sometimes for extended periods of time. A simple fracture may also mean that you have to take time off work for recovery or rehabilitation and you could suffer a loss of earnings.
A compensation claim could cover all these eventualities and make recovery from a simple fracture a lot less stressful.
