In our daily lives, many situations can cause an arm injury. Each arm injury happens under unique circumstances, yet some situations carry greater risk.
Below, we've listed some different situations that might cause an arm injury.
Arm injuries at work
In labour-intensive industries such as manufacturing, construction, and fitness and sports, arm injuries can easily happen if the right care isn't taken by staff and employers. Accidents at work can be traumatic and result in a loss of earnings.
Whether it is a broken arm you've suffered at work or a muscle strain or sprain, we can help you claim compensation.
Arm injuries from a road traffic accident
Road traffic accidents can cause a wide range of injuries. If you rely on driving for your job, an arm injury can force you to take extended time off and suffer a loss of earnings.
A road traffic accident can cause you significant trauma and an arm injury can compound that trauma. We can help you get back on track if your arm injury occurred during a car accident.
Arm injuries after a slip, trip or fall
Being injured in a public place can be embarrassing as well as painful, but if you were hurt and it was someone else's fault you could still claim. Slips, trips and falls can result in serious damage to your arm, especially if you land on it or your wrist or hand.
If you've endured an arm injury that wasn't your fault in any of the situations above, we could help you claim arm injury compensation. Contact us now on for your free consultation.

If your arm injury has resulted in a loss of earnings or left you unable to work, this could have a significant impact on your life. Making a claim can help you recover losses you've incurred and any future loss of earnings.
Similarly, you might have been left with medical costs after your injury. If you weren't responsible for your accident, we don't believe you should be liable for these fees. Arm injury or broken arm compensation can help cover the cost of ongoing physical therapy needed for your recovery.
