Soft tissue injury claims

How DAS Law can help you

Soft tissue injuries is a generic term used to describe damaged muscles, ligaments or tendons that often result from road traffic and motorcycling accidents. These types of injury can be minor and severe causing long term symptoms and financial consequences.

If you have suffered a soft tissue injury from an accident that wasn’t your fault, our experienced team of personal injury lawyers can provide you with practical legal advice and representation.

These are some of the outcomes we can achieve for you:

  • Obtaining compensation for your soft tissue injury.
  • Recovery of lost income.
  • Arranging to get your bike repaired and back on the road.
  • Obtaining an interim payment for replacement motorcycling gear.
  • Obtaining compensation for treatment, rehabilitation, specialist equipment and care.

    • Important things to consider

    Here are some important things you should be aware of when making a claim for a soft tissue injury.

    • Our specialist lawyers are highly experienced in handling minor and severe soft tissue injury claim which have happened in a wide range of scenarios, including slips & trips, falls from height, hit & run accidents, car and motorcycling accidents.
    • You do not need to visit our offices. We can arrange meetings at your convenience at a time that is suitable for you.
    • In most cases, personal injury claims must be made within three years of the occurrence of the injury or the date on which you became aware of the injury.

    How much will it cost?

    If you would like DAS Law to help you with a soft tissue injury claim, there are a number of ways of funding your legal costs, including: 

    Legal Expenses Insurance (LEI)

    If you have a motor or home insurance policy which includes LEI cover, your legal costs may be covered by your policy (subject to the terms and conditions of the policy). If you are unsure if your insurance policy includes LEI cover, we will check this for you.

    Conditional Fee Agreement (No Win, No Fee)

    If you do not have LEI cover, we can still deal with your soft tissue injury claim through a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA) – commonly known as “No Win, No Fee.” We also assist our clients in obtaining After The Event (ATE) insurance at no upfront cost.

    By entering a CFA (subject to our terms of business) you will only have to pay a fee when we are successful in winning you compensation. You pay nothing if you lose your claim. This way you can ensure that your personal finances are not at risk when pursuing your personal injury claim. This option means that you won’t have to pay anything if your compensation claim isn’t successful.

    Our personal injury specialists will be happy to explain these options to you.

    What should you do next?

    If you would like to speak to a personal injury specialist about your soft tissue injury claim, please contact us by calling 0345 604 7298, or email enquiries@daslaw.co.uk.
