What counts as a foot injury?
Foot injuries can vary in severity, from minor sprains to more severe fractures and even amputations, and can significantly impact your mobility and quality of life. If you’ve suffered a foot injury and believe someone else may be at least partly responsible for your injury, you could be entitled to compensation. Our foot injury claims solicitors are here to help, offering expert legal advice on foot injury claims.
Foot injuries that you can claim for include (but are not limited to):
- Minor foot injuries – sprains, strains, and swelling to the foot or toes
- Moderate foot injuries – large tears in ligaments
- Severe foot injuries – complete ligament tears and fractures to the foot
- Loss of one foot
- Loss of both feet
Foot injuries can cause a range of difficulties, from temporary discomfort to permanent mobility issues. The recovery process may involve extensive treatment like surgery, or even the need for rehabilitation, which can lead to financial strain and emotional distress. If your injury isn’t listed here, that doesn’t mean that you aren’t eligible for compensation. Every case is unique, so it’s worth reaching out to one of our experienced personal injury solicitors to discuss your situation.
Our foot injury claims solicitors are recognised personal injury law specialists across Lancashire and the North West, and you can count on our dedicated team to support you every step of the way. From your initial consultation onwards, you’ll be assigned a solicitor who will handle your case with care and guide you through each stage of the claims process.
We’ll arrange any and all of the necessary medical assessments at your convenience and negotiate the best possible settlement on your behalf. If you require ongoing treatment, we’ll ensure your compensation covers these costs, helping to restore your quality of life and ease the financial burden.
How Farleys can help with foot injury claims
With over 60 years of experience, our personal injury solicitors have a proven track record of successfully resolving cases for clients. We understand how significantly a foot injury can disrupt your life, even a relatively minor one. Foot injuries of all kinds can temporarily disrupt mobility and affect your overall well-being, while more serious foot injuries can leave you permanently disabled. We’re here to provide the support you need for your recovery.
If you’re looking for some initial advice, we can provide it free of charge. Our foot injury claims solicitors will discuss the specifics of your injury and circumstances in detail, and based on this, we can tell you whether you have a claim that is likely to succeed. If you choose to pursue the claim, we can then start exploring all the legal options available to you, ensuring we select the best approach to achieving the outcome you deserve. Whether your foot injury was caused by a workplace accident, road traffic incident, sports injury, or under other circumstances, our experienced team is ready to help.
How long do you have to file a foot injury claim?
You have three years from the date of your foot injury to start a claim, and this window begins on the day of the injury. Still, in cases where the full impact isn’t immediately clear, you may have an additional three years from the “date of knowledge”, which is when you first realise the extent of your injury.
We understand how overwhelming a foot injury can be, and it’s normal to feel uncertain about what to do next – that’s where we can help. In cases such as these, it’s crucial to get in touch with us as soon as you realise you may have a case. Gathering as much evidence as you can early on is going to be a great help when it comes to pleading your case.
This might include:
- Medical records of your injury
- Statements from witnesses
- Photos of the accident scene or your injuries
- Financial records showing any losses incurred
- Expert opinions from medical professionals
Our experienced team will guide you throughout the entire process. We’ll be sure to keep you informed and avoid using overly complicated legal terms, ensuring you receive the compensation you deserve.
