What Is A Neck Injury Claim?
A neck injury claim lets you seek compensation if you’ve suffered harm due to another party’s negligence. This could follow incidents like road traffic accidents on the Mancunian Way, slips in city venues, falls at workplaces, or assaults resulting in conditions such as whiplash, fractures, or nerve damage. Successful claims must show that your injury was caused by someone else’s breach of duty or failure to follow health and safety regulations.
Personal Injury Solicitors Manchester will help you by:
Collecting and presenting medical evidence from local Manchester hospitals.
Assessing the impact and severity of your neck injury for accurate compensation estimates.
Communicating with insurers or responsible parties on your behalf.
Guiding you through paperwork and ensuring deadlines are met.
Arranging independent medical assessments when necessary.
You could be eligible for neck injury compensation if the circumstances meet the required legal criteria. To find out if that’s true for your case, please feel free to call today for a free consultation.
Examples of Accidents That Could Result In A Neck Injury Claim
You could be entitled to claim compensation for a neck injury if another party’s negligence directly caused your accident. Personal Injury Solicitors Manchester specialise in assisting clients who’ve suffered harm in a range of situations where legal liability rests with someone else. Common scenarios resulting in claims include:
Public place incidents: Slips or falls in venues like Manchester Arndale, hospitals or car parks often occur when floors are wet, poorly maintained, or hazards aren’t signposted. If the property owner neglected safety duties, compensation may be available.
Workplace accidents: Injuries due to inadequate training, unsafe equipment or manual handling at offices, warehouses, or construction sites may give grounds for an accident at work claim. Employers are legally obliged to protect your health under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.
Road traffic collisions: Collisions on routes like Deansgate or Princess Road can result in whiplash, fractures, or ligament damage. If another driver was at fault, you could pursue damages for pain, lost earnings or rehabilitation costs.
Assaults: You could make a criminal injury claim if attacked and injured in locations such as bars, public transport or at events, with claims progressing through the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority scheme.
You’ll benefit from expert support when pursuing a compensation claim following any of these incidents. Our solicitors will evaluate liability, secure medical evidence, handle insurer communication and provide clear updates, all focused on your specific circumstances.

How A Neck Injury Claim Works
All of our solicitors are registered with the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA). This means that they’ll always comply with proper procedures to ensure your neck injury claim is filed correctly. You’ll be kept up to date throughout the claims process, and you’ll always be involved in any decisions regarding settlement amounts.
Evidence To Support Your Claim
Strong evidence is needed to support your neck injury compensation claim, ensuring your case is properly assessed. As such, our solicitors will collect:
Medical reports from your hospital visit or GP appointment, such as those from Manchester Royal Infirmary
Photographic evidence of the accident scene at locations like Deansgate, Oxford Road, or at work
Witness statements from bystanders or colleagues present at the incident
CCTV or dashcam footage around public venues or main roads in Manchester
You’ll receive help gathering and organising this evidence, helping validate your claim and maximise your possible compensation.
Time Limits For Neck Injury Claims
You usually must start a neck injury claim within three years of the accident date, as set out by the Limitation Act 1980. The time limit for child neck injury claims does not start until their 18th birthday. Therefore, you could claim on behalf of your child at any time before then. Similarly, you can represent a loved one who lacks mental capacity because there is no time limit in this situation.
If you’d like us to confirm how long you have to start a neck injury claim, please give us a call and explain your circumstances.
What Does Compensation In A Neck Injury Claim Cover?
Typically, if you win a neck injury claim, your compensation will cover:
General damages—Cover pain, suffering, or loss of amenity associated with whiplash, fractures, or nerve injuries.
Special damages—Cover quantifiable financial losses, for example, lost earnings, private medical treatment at places like Manchester Royal Infirmary, rehabilitation costs, or travel expenses to appointments.
Future losses—Address ongoing care, home adaptations, or future loss of earnings when your injury results in reduced earning capacity.
Our solicitors will gather medical reports, expert evidence, wage statements, and receipts to present a comprehensive claim, ensuring all your losses linked to the neck injury are considered. You’ll also receive guidance on rehabilitation and updates throughout negotiations with insurers.
