Male Impotence
An injury resulting in total impotence and loss of sexual function and sterility in case of a young man could be in the region of £86,500. The level of the award will depend about the person’s age, psychological reaction and the effect on social and domestic life.
Permanent impotence with a middle aged man with children, the amount would be in the region of £25,000 to £46,300.
Sterility usually falls into one of two categories, surgical, chemical and disease cases (with no traumatic injury or scarring), and traumatic injuries which often are caused by assaults and are often aggravated by scarring. The amount you could receive in compensation would be £81,500 for the most serious cases, but for older men the award would be about £10,700.
With a case where there is sterility without impotence for a young man without children the amount would be in the region of £32,800 to £41,250.
For a case where there is sterility without impotence for a family man who might have intended to have more children, the amount would be in the region of £13,750 to £18,100.
Less severe cases where the sterility amounts to little more that an ‘insult’ the amount awarded would be in the region of £3,800.
