Welcome to the Personal Injury Compensation Guide. This tool provides information about the compensation you may be due if you have suffered an injury that wasn't your fault.

This is an introductory guide to the financial value of claims, depending on the seriousness of the injury and the length of time you have had the symptoms. 

If your case is successful, we may be able to make claims for other losses. Those can include lost wages, loss of employability, compensation for services provided to you by family and friends, inconvenience and other expenses. 

The figures in the guide are a 'starting point' to learn about your potential claim. Each case will depend on its own facts. To find out more or if a specific injury is not shown, please contact us today on 0131 247 1000 or through our personal injury compensation form below.
