Compensation Amounts For Gym Accident Claims

Every gym accident is unique, and this means that every compensation claim is also unique. The amount of compensation you receive will depend on the severity of your injuries and the impact this has had on your life. There are some common factors in gym accident compensation claims, however.

Compensation claims can best be thought of in two parts. The first is there to make up for the pain and suffering you have endured, at least as far as this is possible. This follows national guidelines set down by the Judicial College. Under this framework, each injury has a range of compensation and payments for that injury are expected to fall somewhere within that range. The range can be very broad, however, to account for the vast individual differences in each injury.

The second, and often much larger, part of your compensation claim is to compensate you for any costs, expenses or losses associated with your gym accident. The aim of compensation is to give you as close as possible to the same situation as you would have ad if your gym accident had not occurred. This means that you are able to claim for any loss of earnings if you are unable to work as a result of your gym accident, or even for the loss of the earnings you would have been likely to receive if your injuries mean that you are unable to return to your previous work. You may also be entitled to claim for additional medical support, the help of a carer if this has become necessary and even some modifications to your home or vehicle if they are necessary to allow you to resume the life you had previously.

Working with our dedicated team of gym accident claims specialists means that you can rest assured that your compensation claim includes all aspects of your financial losses as a result of your gym accident and that you are making the most appropriate compensation claim for your personal circumstances.

How Long Will It Take To Receive My Compensation As A Result Of My Gym Accident Claim?

All gym accident compensation claims are different, and some of them will take far longer to resolve than others. We endeavour to resolve all our clients’ cases as quickly as possible to allow them to move on with their lives and get them the compensation payment they need to do so.

Some cases can be resolved in a matter of just a few weeks or months. These tend to be the easier claims to process, where the other party does not try to claim that the accident wasn’t their fault and where they are keen to agree the compensation amount as quickly as possible. Less severe injuries also tend to be quicker to resolve, as the amounts of money involved are smaller and the other party is less likely to want to put in the additional effort to argue about how much you deserve.

If your case is more complicated, for example if the other person refuses to accept that they were to blame or if there are multiple people who were all partially to blame for what happened, it might take much longer for you to get the compensation you deserve. Cases that have to go to court can last significantly longer than those that do not.

What If I Am Worried About How To Afford My Gym Accident Compensation Claim?

Because we know that the period following a gym accident can be financially very difficult, we offer our services on a no win no fee basis to almost all of our clients. This means that you won’t need to find the money to pay for legal fees to start your gym accident compensation claim.

As the name suggests, if we are not able to get you the compensation you deserve, you won’t have to pay anything. This takes the risk out of making a gym accident claim and ensures that justice is available to everyone. With a no win no fee agreement, our fees are set as a percentage of your compensation payment, meaning that you always know exactly how much you will receive before accepting an offer of a compensation settlement, and also ensuring that you will always receive the lion’s share of the payment.

In a minority of cases, we are not able to offer our services on a no win no fee basis.

Working on your behalf, we write to the person responsible for your gym accident (this person is often known as the respondent). In this letter, we explain that you are claiming compensation for your injuries and that you believe that they were at fault. We ask them to accept responsibility (the legal term for this is accepting liability) for what happened and give them a deadline by which to inform us if they disagree.

If the person at fault in your accident denies that they were to blame, we will collect all of the evidence we can find and present them with a strong case as to why they are liable. This can include pictures, videos and statements, as well as more technical and legal backing documents if needed. Once presented with this evidence, almost all employers will accept that they are liable.

After the other side have admitted that they were at fault in your personal injury claim, it is time to negotiate the compensation amount. Although we will handle all of the negotiations on your behalf, you remain in control at all times. We will inform you of all amounts that are offered to you and it will be your decision as to whether you accept or reject each offer. We will give you our expert advice, based on our years of training and experience making personal injury compensation claims, but the final decision will always rest with you.

In almost all cases, it is possible to reach an agreement to settle your case. This is especially true for accidents at work, as it is not in the interests of the insurance company to force your personal injury compensation case to court. If it is not possible to agree liability or to find a compensation amount that both sides find air, it may be necessary to ask a judge to decide how much compensation you deserve.

What Do I Need To Know To Make A Gym Accident Claim?

Following a gym accident, many people just like you are left unsure as to whether they should make a gym accident compensation claim. There are a few conditions that are required before you are entitled to make a compensation claim, but they are very simple and most people will be able to claim.

You are only able to make a compensation claim for things that you have actually suffered. You are only able to make a gym accident compensation claim if you have experienced a gym accident, not if you suffered a near miss. Similarly, you are only able to make a claim for the damage you have actually sustained, not the damage that you could have suffered, or for injuries that you narrowly avoided.

The next thing to consider when trying to work out whether you are able to make a gym accident compensation claim is who was to blame for what happened to you. In order to make a claim, there must have been someone at fault. They do not need to have been the immediate cause of what happened, but they do need to have been responsible for your welfare in some way. If your accident occurred at work, this can be very easy to establish, as your employer has a statutory duty of care, meaning that they have a legal obligation to ensure that you are safe.

You will also need to be sure that what happened to you wasn’t a freak occurrence. It doesn’t need to be something that happens regularly, but you can only claim for something that could reasonably have been foreseen, without sufficient care and attention.

The last part of the requirements for making a gym accident compensation claim is whether the other party took sufficient action to help improve the situation. Even if they did put some measures in place to improve the health and safety situation, you are still able to make a claim if these were not sufficient.

If you have suffered a gym accident and it wasn’t your fault, you are entitled to compensation. Our gym accident specialists want to help you get the payment you deserve, so call us or claim online today to arrange your free, no obligation consultation.

What Should I Do Following A Gym Accident?

It is absolutely vital that the first thing you do following your gym accident is to protect yourself. Make sure that you are safe from further harm and that you have access to the medical assistance that you need as an absolute priority. Once this has been done, there are a few additional steps you may wish to take to help with your gym accident compensation claim.

It is essential that you make sure that you remember clearly all of the circumstances surrounding your gym accident. The more details you are able to provide, the better your evidence will be. Writing down exactly what happened and the circumstances that led to your gym accident, especially if you can do it soon afterwards, can help you to remember far more details and it can also be used as further evidence.

Another helpful thing to do is to make sure that you have the names and contact details for any witnesses who might have seen what happened. These pictures can also help to provide additional evidence if the person responsible for your gym accident disputes your account.

If you have access to photographs or videos of the place that your gym accident took place, these pieces of visual evidence can also be very helpful. Please do make sure that you don’t put yourself at risk to obtain these though. Anything showing any features of the location or the situation that made your gym accident more likely, or which increased the severity of your gym accident, should be documented if you can.
