    Leg Injury

    If you have been involved in an accident that has resulted in a leg injury, then Bonnar Accident Law can help you claim the compensation you deserve on a ‘No Win – No Fee’ basis.

    Causes of leg injuries

    Falls.

    A simple fall can fracture one or both of the lower leg bones. However, the thighbone is unlikely to be broken without more significant trauma.

    Motor vehicle accidents.

    All three leg bones can break during a motor vehicle accident. Fractures can occur when the knees become jammed against the dashboard during a collision.

    Accidents at work.

    Leg injuries are commonplace on construction sites and can result from vehicle accidents or accidents involving plant and machinery. Carrying of heavy and awkward loads can lead to slips and falls.

    Sports injuries.

    Hyperextending the leg during contact sports can cause a broken leg. So can a direct blow, such as from a hockey stick or an opponent’s body.

    The effects of a leg injury

    A broken thighbone (femur) – the strongest bone in the body usually is immediately obvious because it takes so much force to break. However, fractures of the shinbone (tibia) – the major weight-bearing bone in the lower leg and the bone that runs alongside the tibia below the knee – (fibula) may be more subtle.

    Knee injuries can take several different forms from fractured knee cap to torn cartilage and cruciate ligament injuries.

    Sudden (acute) injuries may be caused by a direct blow to the knee or from abnormal twisting or bending the knee or a fall.

    A serious leg injury will almost certainly result in an extended period off work and a course of physiotherapy to regain the use of the damaged limb. A catastrophic leg injury resulting in the amputation of one or both legs is a life-changing event for the accident victim and their family.

    Leg Injury Claim Compensations – Typical Claim Amounts

    Amputation
    Total loss of both legs  up to £155,000
    Loss of both legs below the knee  up to £145,000

    Loss of one leg below the knee  up to £65,000
