This comprehensive guide on personal injury claims offers a step-by-step walkthrough for individuals seeking compensation after sustaining injuries in accidents. It covers the two types of damages in personal injury claims: general damages (non-tangible losses) and special damages (specific and measurable losses). General damages include compensation for pain and suffering, mental anguish, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of consortium. Special damages cover medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and other out-of-pocket expenses. The guide emphasizes the importance of understanding the time limit for filing personal injury claims, typically within a 3-year window from the time of injury, with exceptions outlined in the Limitation Act 1980. The option of "no win, no fee" arrangements is introduced as a cost-effective way to initiate the compensation process. The guide concludes by encouraging individuals to seek free legal advice and contact experts at 0800 970 2727 or info@claimtime.com for support
