Where the forces involved in an accident are particularly serious and where the neck has suffered a particularly bad injury either in the form of a severe soft tissue damage or disc damage then it is not uncommon for the pain to radiate from the neck into the shoulder and down into the arm.

That can also lead to symptoms of numbness and tingling down the arm and into the hand and fingers.

The role of the shoulder

From manual handling in the workplace, to playing sports, performing domestic chores and carrying the children around the home, the shoulder is essential to the performance of so many everyday tasks.

As such, if you have suffered a shoulder injury as a result of another person's negligence – for example the actions of an employer or road user – it is essential that you consider your possible right to compensation for pain, suffering, lost earnings and medical expenses.

How much might your claim be worth?

There is a great degree of variation in the size of shoulder injury compensation payouts. However, smaller value claims (for example, minor muscle tears) are usually met with payouts of between £4,000 and £5,000 while claims for shoulder injuries that require surgery and cause longer term disability may be compensable with settlements of around £30,000.

Excellent Service

We decided to use Thompsons Solicitors for our personal injury claim following a road traffic accident. The service was spot on from beginning to end, with excellent communication, timely responses & cleat advice that was easy to understand. It was evident Corinne was always acting in her clients best interests and she worked hard to ensure we got the compensation we rightfully deserved. We were delighted with our final offer and we would absolutely recommend both Thompsons and Corinne to others. We cannot thank her enough for all her help, support and advice during this experience.

Traffic Accident

I can’t thank Corinne and the Team enough for all their help, support, hard work and perseverance with my case. Their belief in me and not giving up over 2 years won me my case and an out of court settlement. I am extremely grateful to Corinne and the team for providing a first class service at all times and keeping me constantly updated every step of the way over the past 2 years. Thankyou all so much and so glad with your expert advice and knowledge in your field it did not have to go to court and an offer was made which I am extremely happy with.
