Hip Injury Compensation Claims

Trustpilot

If you’ve suffered a hip injury, we’re here to help. Our hip injury claims solicitors understand how painful a hip injury can be, and how any loss of mobility can affect your life. We’ll strive to secure you the best compensation possible, helping to get your life back on track.

How To Make A Hip Injury Claim

Call our personal injury team today on 0800 056 4110 for your free initial consultation. We’ll ask you some questions about how your injury happened, who you believe is responsible, and how your life has changed as a result.

If we think you have a claim, we’ll approach the person or organisation you believe is at fault. If they accept responsibility, we’ll negotiate a compensation settlement for you that takes into account your pain, suffering and the impact on your life.

If we think you have a claim but the other party doesn’t admit responsibility, we’ll still fight for compensation for you – all the way to court if necessary.

Hip injuries may occur for many reasons, from road traffic accidents to repetitive strain injury. We can help you with hip injury claims for:

  • Breaks, fractures and dislocations
  • Fractured pelvis
  • Bursitis
  • Hip dysplasia 
  • Osteoarthritis arising from hip injuries.

In the most serious cases, breaks and fractures may result in hip replacement surgery. We can help you to fund ongoing treatment costs with interim compensation payments and guide you through the rehabilitation process.

How Long Do You Have To Make A Hip Injury Claim?

Generally speaking, you have three years from the date of the injury, or the date you realised your hip was injured, (for example, if a doctor diagnosed a repetitive strain injury) to make a claim. There are exceptions to this, for example you may have less time to make a claim if you were injured overseas or in a criminal assault.

Get in touch with us as soon as possible and we’ll talk you through the time limits that apply in your case.

How Much Compensation Can I Claim For A Hip Injury?

There are no set compensation amounts for hip injuries as every single case has different circumstances. Your final settlement will be based on a number of factors, including:

  • Your physical pain
  • The severity of the damage
  • Loss of earnings
  • Lifestyle changes
  • Surgery such as hip replacement.

Hip injuries can be extremely painful and may need many trips to see medical professionals. In addition to compensation, we can also arrange interim compensation payments where applicable.

No Win No Fee Hip Injury Claims

Most of our hip injury claims are ‘no win, no fee’. This means that yours and your opponent’s legal fees are covered if you’re unsuccessful*. If you’re successful, your opponent will pay a significant portion of your legal costs. Any costs not paid by your opponent will be taken from your compensation.

Why Choose Us?

We understand how debilitating hip injuries can be, from loss of earnings to no longer being able to enjoy your favourite activities. With our decades of personal injury experience, we can guide you through the whole claims process.

We have leading legal experts up and down the country who have processed hundreds of claims just like yours, from broken hip compensation to osteoarthritic complications. If needed, our support and rehabilitation teams can also help you get access to rehabilitation and sort out interim compensation payments to make life easier for you at every stage of the recovery process.

Hip Injury Compensation Claims - More Information

It was incredible, impressive and comforting how each member of the team was there to support us at different times."

Client Story - Hip Injury

client-stories-pedestrian-crossing

We secured compensation for our client, Geoffrey Hough, who suffered a hip injury after tripping on an uneven paving stone. Geoffrey, who was 76 at the time, was walking across a pedestrian crossing when he caught his toe on the raised edge of a paving stone. He fell and fractured his hip, resulting in a hip replacement.

Geoffrey soon lost his independence and relied on his wife to help him with everyday tasks. He also no longer enjoyed his regular activities such as walking and gardening. After approaching our solicitors, Geoffrey received an out-of-court settlement from Stockport Borough Council, who were responsible for maintaining this area.

The five-figure settlement helped Geoffrey’s recovery by funding his rehabilitative therapy. 



"We're happy to have secured this settlement for Geoffrey. Importantly, these types of falls and cases do highlight how important it is for local councils and other relevant organisations to ensure the pavements and roads we all utilise are fit for purpose.” - Richard Adams, Solicitor
