Compensation calculator

The amount of compensation you can claim for an injury you have suffered depends on the severity of the injury itself. While compensation awards can vary significantly from case to case, even if the circumstances seem similar, the following figures represent approximate values per injury type to give you an estimate of what you may be entitled to. These figures are based on the Guidelines for the Assessment of General Damages in Personal Injury Cases published by the Judicial Studies Board.
