What is whiplash?

Whiplash is the name given to the injury most commonly sustained when the stationery vehicle in which you are sitting is hit from behind by another vehicle. As your head is thrown backwards and forwards your neck suffers a strain, which is the whiplash injury. Whiplash compensation is the money you receive for these injuries from the other driver's insurance company.

How much whiplash compensation will I receive for my injuries?

Every claim is different as a result of the injuries sustained. We will obtain medical evidence from an expert in whiplash compensation (normally an orthopaedic surgeon) who will carry out a full and thorough medical examination to assess the extent of your whiplash injury.

In negotiating a settlement or the court awarding whiplash compensation for your injuries, the following factors are taken into consideration.

• How severe the whiplash injury is
• Whether the injury prevents you from working
• How much of an impact the injury has on your day to day activities
• Whether ongoing treatment is necessary

These are the most important elements in assessing the value of your whiplash compensation claim, although there are many other factors to consider too. With Direct 2 Solicitors you can be sure we will obtain all of the evidence necessary to obtain the maximum amount of whiplash compensation for you. We are experts in this area, let us take care of you and get you back on the road to recovery. Below are some examples of recent awards we have recovered for our clients.
