Whiplash ClaimsWhiplash claims can help you recover the costs of any medical treatment received after the accident and also compensate you for any lost wages as a result of taking time off work to recover form your injuries. However, there are certain measures you can take to help avoid or limit the effects of whiplash injuries;
- Correctly adjusting the head restraint on your car seat
- Always wear your seatbelt - doing so will prevent the whole body from lurching forwards during impact and lessen the movement of the head
- If you regularly take part in sports where whiplash is a risk, such as rugby or boxing, warm up neck muscles before you begin
If you intend to make a claim for whiplash, it's important you consult a medical professional as soon as possible after the accident. Their diagnoses will form an important part of your claim, and severity of the injury sustained and the impact it has on your life will influence how much compensation is awarded.
