You\u2019re likely to come off your bike or at least hit your knee, so we see these kinds of injuries a lot.<\/p>\n<p>Knee injuries can be serious. It can be easy to do long-term damage when the knee joint is disrupted in any way at all. It can be easy for a rider to be left with permanent problems, and the need for surgery is also common. That\u2019s why compensation amounts for motorbike knee injuries can be quite high, as we have to make sure that any damages received reflect what the victim has to go through.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a little advice about what to expect for this type of claim, and how much compensation you could be entitled to receive.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>What to expect when claiming for motorbike knee injuries<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When you make a claim for compensation for motorbike knee injuries, there can sometimes be a lot to consider.<\/p>\n<p>A claim isn\u2019t always just about processing a few documents and trying to get some money for you. When it comes to serious injuries especially, there\u2019s a great deal more for us to consider. The way that we work is designed to be more than just a claim for compensation.<\/p>\n<p>We can offer:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>No Win, No Fee representation;<\/li>\n<li>Private medical appointments for the expert evidence needed to value the case;<\/li>\n<li>Private treatment, like physiotherapy and occupational therapy;<\/li>\n<li>Support from an experienced legal team.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We have a dedicated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorbikeinjurylawyers.co.uk\/serious-injury-team\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Serious Injury Claims Team<\/strong><\/a>. In fact, a huge proportion of the claims we take forward for personal injury are for serious and complex injury cases. They\u2019re one of the things we specialise in.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How much can you claim for motorbike knee injuries?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When it comes to how much you may be able to claim in damages for motorbike knee injuries, the guidelines we use to value claims say as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Where a complete recovery is made: up to <strong>\u00a35,250.00<\/strong>;<\/li>\n<li>Less serious injuries that could involve acceleration of problems and occasional pain and discomfort long-term: up to <strong>\u00a312,000.00<\/strong>;<\/li>\n<li>Moderate dislocation injuries and cartilage injuries leaving you with some long-term weakness and\/or mild disability: up to <strong>\u00a323,000.00<\/strong>;<\/li>\n<li>Injuries involving more serious damage to the kneecap, ligamentous injuries or meniscal injuries, or muscular wasting: up to <strong>\u00a338,000.00<\/strong>;<\/li>\n<li>Leg fractures which involve the knee joint and leave you with constant, permanent movement limitations and being prone to future problems: up to <strong>\u00a360,000.00<\/strong>;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Even more severe knee injuries can warrant claims of up to <strong>\u00a385,000.00<\/strong> for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity alone.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to know that we do use a combination of expert medical evidence and our own experience, as well as the above guidelines and information from previously settled claims, to value a case. The above is for the injuries alone, so make sure you remember that you can also claim losses and expenses on top of the above as well. These are known as Special Damages and can be high when you consider cases of lost earnings that could account for years of being unable to work.<\/p>\n<p>For more tailored advice, make sure you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorbikeinjurylawyers.co.uk\/what-can-i-claim-for\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>speak to our team about your options for claiming compensation. <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Motorbike knee injuries can be common when riders are involved in accidents.
