A personal injury claim may be possible where someone’s negligence or breach of duty caused you injury, but this depends on the facts and available evidence. Seek appropriate medical attention, report the incident where relevant, and keep records of symptoms, expenses, photographs and witness details. In many cases, court proceedings must be started within three years of the injury or when you first became aware of it, although exceptions can apply, including for children or people lacking capacity. A solicitor regulated by the SRA can assess your circumstances, explain funding and costs, and advise on the relevant time limit.
