When assessing pelvis and hip injury claims, the following factors are considered
Source: Personal Injuries Guidelines
Based on the severity of the pelvis and hip injuries, the guidelines provide several compensation brackets:
These injuries involve extensive fractures resulting in substantial residual disabilities, necessitating interventions like spinal fusion. Dislocation of a low back joint and other severe complications fall into this category.
Injuries that are less severe than the severe category but still have distinguishing features are considered here. Complex fractures, leg instability, and future hip replacement needs fall within this bracket.
Significant injuries with permanent disability not being major fall into this category. It includes cases requiring hip replacement surgery and interventions for ongoing symptoms.
Minor injuries with varying recovery periods are covered here, taking into account the time it takes for substantial recovery to occur.
Pelvis and hip injuries can arise from various circumstances, including:
Our team of experienced pelvis and hip injury claim solicitors is available to guide clients through the process of making a back injury claim. Utilising a solicitor can simplify the paperwork and filing required for this process.
The next step is to apply to the Personal Injuries Assessment Board (PIAB). If your personal injury claim concerns anything other than medical negligence, some assaults, and some cases of entirely psychological injury, then your claim can be brought through PIAB. Examples of claims that PIAB covers include:
Your solicitor will gather evidence, medical reports, and other expert report evaluations and submit them to PIAB for assessment.
Once the application is made, PIAB will notify the defendant(s) and they must indicate within 90 days if they consent to the evaluation of the claim. If consent is given, PIAB will proceed with the assessment. If denied, PIAB will grant authorisation for court proceedings.
The assessment process usually takes about 9 months. If both parties accept PIAB’s assessment, an order to pay will be issued and must be discharged by the defendant(s) within 10 days. If rejected, an authorisation for court proceedings will be granted.
You have two years from the date of the accident within which to issue proceedings for a pelvis and hip injury claim. If you are under 18, a separate set of rules apply, and we would recommend you contact our solicitors to discuss these.
