Foot Injury Compensation

Foot and toe injuries can be severely debilitating. If your foot or feet have been injured through no fault of your own, our personal injury solicitors may be able to help you claim.

Foot & Toe Injury Compensation

Although foot and toe injuries are less common than, say, leg injuries, they can affect your mobility and lifestyle just as much. The law takes this into consideration; after all, foot amputation can affect your life just as much as leg amputation.

Your foot or toe can be injured through a trip or fall over something that shouldn't be there – for example, an unmarked spill in a supermarket. You could also sustain an injury at work, as the result of something falling on your feet or a fall from height.

Compensation is usually in relation to the degree or permanency of damage, immobility, disfigurement or pain.
