Spinal injuries caused by sporting accidents

It is not only professional sports people that are entitled to claim compensation when they are spinally injured whilst taking part in a sporting activity.  Anyone who suffers a sports injury, whether taking part on a professional, semi-professional, amateur or recreational basis, should be entitled to claim compensation if someone else is to blame for the incident.

Impacts in many sports lead to a high risk of spinal injury. However, if the correct precautions and regulations have not been observed it is often not the fault of the injured party that they have been injured. Indeed, it is often the case that the injury could have been prevented altogether.

Working with spinal injury sports charities

We have a long relationship of working with Regain, the only national charity for those who have sustained spinal injuries in sporting accidents. We are proud of the association we have with this charity and the addittional benefits that this provides for our clients.

Investigating spinal injuries in sport

For a successful sporting accident claim to be brought, the injury sustained has to be as a result of factors that are beyond the normal range to be expected in the particular sport. There may be a failure to supervise by the referee or umpire, or conditions of the ground may have been unsuitable for the activity to be undertaken. Our specialist sporting injury lawyers fully investigate the circumstances, and along with providing the correct financial awards, can arrange specialist rehabilitation at no cost to our clients.
