Why ‘Proof Wins Cases’ Matters in Serious Injury Claims
When you’ve suffered a spinal injury at work, in a road accident, or in a public place the outcome of your claim can impact the rest of your life. That’s why proving the extent and cause of your injury is absolutely critical.
Spinal injuries are serious and often life-changing. Whether it’s partial paralysis, spinal injury mobility issues, nerve damage, or ongoing pain, these injuries require specialized legal expertise. A strong case depends on more than just your story it requires clear, documented evidence at every stage.
At Claim Today, we’ve supported clients through thousands of serious injury cases over the past 25 years. We know what works and we know what insurers use to reject or reduce spinal injury compensation as proof wins .
What Is a Spinal Injury Claim?
A spinal injury claim is a legal case brought by someone who has suffered injury to the spine due to someone else’s negligence often in:
- Road traffic accidents as a driver, passenger, cyclist, or pedestrian
- Workplace accidents especially in construction, warehouses, or transport roles
- Falls in public places e.g. shops, uneven pavements, stairs
Your right to compensation depends on proving:
- Fault – Someone else was responsible
- Causation – Their actions (or lack of) caused your injury
- Damages – You suffered actual harm (physical, emotional, financial)
Step-by-Step Guide: How to Win a Spinal Injury Claim
Step 1: Seek Medical Help Immediately
Spinal injuries may not be obvious at first. Get checked—even if you think it’s “just back pain.” A documented medical diagnosis is essential.
Step 2: Gather Evidence
This includes:
- Hospital/GP records
- MRI or CT scan results
- X-rays
- Prescriptions
- Rehabilitation logs
- Photographs of the scene/injuries
- Witness statements
Step 3: Contact a Specialist Solicitor
A generalist won’t cut it. You need someone with experience in high-value, catastrophic injury cases. Our team of spinal injury claim experts are accredited and trusted for serious legal representation.
Step 4: Track Your Recovery & Expenses
Keep notes on your physical progress, emotional well-being, loss of earnings, care needs, and all out-of-pocket costs. These details help your solicitor build the value of your claim.
Time Limits – Don’t Miss Out
Under UK law, you have 3 years from the date of your accident (or diagnosis) to make a spinal injury claim. But if you’re under 18 or mentally incapacitated, time limits may vary.
Acting early gives you the best chance of success.
How Much Is My Claim Worth?
There’s no “one-size-fits-all” number. Compensation depends on:
- Severity of injury (e.g., paraplegia vs soft tissue)
- Ongoing medical care needed
- Adaptations to home or vehicle
- Pain, suffering, and emotional distress
- Lost income and future earning capacity
