How much compensation money for a Broken Nose?
Have you been involved in an accident which was not your fault where your nose got broken or fractured? The nose is very easily broken and can change the whole appearance of the face. Many people suffer from a broken nose due to violence when someone has punched you in the face. Very few people report this type of assault and then never even bother to get their nose fixed.
So if you did contact an accident solicitor and put a compensation claim forward what sort of money are you likely to get? Well for a start it all depends on the severity of the injury and how long you suffered as a result.
For a serious nose or nasal complex fractures which require a number of operations, or result in permanent damage to airways or nerves, or facial deformity the amount would be in the region of £6,100 to £13,500. A displaced fracture where the injured person recovers after surgery the amount would be in the region of £2,300 to £3,000. A displaced fracture that only requires some manipulation the amount would be in the region of £1,400 to £1,775. With a simple undisplaced fracture where there is a full recovery the amount would be in the region of £1000 to £1,400. Most solicitors which take on accident compensation claims work on a no win no fee basis. This means you can’t be left out of pocket. If they fail to recover a settlement for you then you do not pay them a penny in fees. Solicitors fees get taken out of the insurance of the party who’s fault the accident was. If there is a chance you may not win then there is insurance that can be taken out. Generally accident solicitors will not take a case on unless they are 99% sure they will win.So if you are recovering from a broken nose and want to find out about claiming compensation, contact us today and our experienced solicitors will talk you thorough the process and let you know the likelihood of winning the case.
