Such injuries can often be serious in high-speed collisions, and it\u2019s important for victims to know their rights when it comes to whether they can claim and what they can claim for.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a little guidance on the subject of arm injuries suffered by motorbike riders and what can be done about it.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Eligibility for motorbike arm injury claims<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Motorbike arm injury claims can be launched where you\u2019re the victim of someone else\u2019s negligence on the road. Whether a driver has pulled out in front of you, or hit you on a roundabout, you can be entitled to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.motorbikeinjurylawyers.co.uk\/start-your-claim\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>make a claim for personal injury compensation<\/strong><\/a> if the accident was another road user\u2019s fault.<\/p>\n<p>If we consider there are reasonable protects to succeed with the claim, we can offer you No Win, No Fee representation.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Pay-outs for motorbike arm injury claims<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As with any other case, pay-outs and awards for motorbike arm injury claims depend on the extent and the severity of any suffering and loss the victim endures.<\/p>\n<p>We usually work this out using expert medical reports and evidence of any losses and expenses you incur, like lost earnings from time off work or treatment and medical expenses.<\/p>\n<p>We also use official guidelines to assist with valuing the claim as well. For these kinds of injuries, they read as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Simple forearm fractures: up to \u00a316,830.00;<\/li>\n<li>Injuries leading to a substantial degree of disabilities: up to \u00a334,340.00;<\/li>\n<li>Injuries resulting in permanent and substantial disabilities, such as serious fractures to one or both arms: up to \u00a352,490.00<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Injuries that are close to, but not quite, amputation can attract even higher awards of up to around \u00a3100,000.00. Amputations can then reach over \u00a3250,000.00.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>A word about serious arm injury claims<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>When it comes to serious motorbike arm injury claims, there\u2019s a great deal more to consider than just the pay-out for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity. The above guideline figures only take that part of the claim into account, and the bigger part of the case may be the claim for Special Damages.<\/p>\n<p>Special Damages is for the losses and expenses which may be suffered for life.
