Making a serious injury compensation claim
If you or a family member was hurt, at least in part, through someone else’s negligence, recklessness or unreasonable conduct, you may have the right to seek damages. A claim can cover the pain of the injury, lost earnings, including future loss of earnings, specialist care and rehabilitation, and the cost of adapting to a changed life: home modifications, a wheelchair, prosthetics. Under Scots law, you usually have three years from the accident, or from when you realised you were injured, to make a claim. Citizens Advice Scotland sets out the time limits in full.
