NATIONWIDE WHIPLASH INJURY COMPENSATION CLAIM
A whiplash injury compensation claim usually arises as a result of a rear end shunt whilst riding in a motor vehicle. This condition is a collection of symptoms arising as a result of damage
to the discs, muscles, nerves or tendons of the neck caused by a sudden acceleration or deceleration. The head is violently thrown back, forwards or sideways followed by an equal and opposite reflex contraction. Swelling and inflammation usually occurs which leads to pressure being placed on the nerves often resulting in the classical symptoms. Most neck damage is not serious and broken bones are extremely rare. Most injuries heal within a few months following conservative treatment although there can be long-term permanent damage particularly to those in vulnerable groups including the elderly. The severity of the injury depends on the posture of the claimant at the time of the accident and the speed and relative weights of the vehicles involved. Injuries caused as a result of truck accidents and bus accidents can be particularly serious to the occupants of the lighter vehicle. Drivers who are usually able to brace themselves often suffer lesser injuries than unprepared passengers. Side ways impact usually produces the most severe symptoms and often involves facet joint damage which may cause permanent disability. The amount of any whiplash settlement that can be claimed for pain and suffering following damage to the neck depends on severity of the injury, the time that elapses for full recovery and whether or not there are any residual long term or chronic symptoms.
