What Would My Needlestick Injury Claim Be Worth?
Quite understandably this is often one of the first questions we are asked by clients – after all you want to know if it is worth your while explaining everything to us and answering all our questions before you commit to a legal case. At the same time however, it is an incredibly tricky question to answer as every single case is different and how much you may get very much depends upon your own individual circumstances.
We know that this sounds like a very vague reply and that we are trying to dodge the question. We can promise you that we are not but at the same time we do not want to either play down the value of your case nor do we want to throw around huge figures and give you unrealistic expectations.
How much you may receive does include damages that are very much personal to you and you alone such as loss of earnings and perhaps care needs but your general damages, the money you receive for actually suffering the needlestick injury will be based on two things: –
The physical injury you have sustained, and
The psychological injury
What we can say at this stage is that we at Russell Worth solicitors would not accept your case at the outset unless we thought it was worth your while from a financial standpoint.
Contact us today so that we can discuss your circumstances and find out if we could help you on a no win no fee basis. It is free to call us and you are under no obligation to pursue a claim even if we think that you have a strong case. We will simply let you have the benefit of our legal expertise and what you do after that is up to you.
