Can I bring a personal injury claim on behalf of a child? 

If your child has been injured in an accident that was not their fault, you can make a personal injury claim for financial compensation on their behalf. Under UK Law, no minors under the age of 18 can make a personal injury claim on their own behalf, as they are not considered to hold the legal capacity to do so. 
 
Therefore, when a child is injured in an accident that was not their fault, a parent or guardian of the injured child is appointed to make a personal injury claim on their behalf. This adult is known as the child’s ‘litigation friend’, and essentially takes on the child injury claim as if it were their own, working alongside a personal injury solicitor to file the claim. 

How does compensation for child personal injury claims work? 

If we accept your NO WIN NO FEE child injury claim, your designated injury solicitor will get to work on gathering all available evidence to ensure that everything is included in your child injury claim. 
 
The compensation to cover any financial losses, such as your lost earnings to care for your injured child, are known as special damages, and calculated on a purely individual basis. See more on this here. 
 
In terms of general damages for the pain and suffering of your child’s injuries, this will be worked out depending on the type and severity of the injuries sustained. Our child injury solicitors have put together the following table using the relevant guidelines to estimate the potential compensation for different child injury claims in general damages alone.

Neck injuries- soft tissue injuries (whiplash) where a full recovery takes place within one to two years 
£4,080 to £7,410

What are child injury claims? 

A child injury claim is a type of personal injury claim made on behalf of an injured child, by a parent or guardian. A child injury claim can be made for a number of different injuries and accidents caused by the negligent actions of somebody else.

Some of the most common types of accidents leading to child injury claims, include:

Does my child have a claim? 

Generally speaking, if your child has suffered injuries of any kind in an accident that was not their fault and was caused by the actions or negligence of someone else, you can make a child injury claim for financial compensation as a litigation friend. 
 
When you work with a personal injury solicitor, you are essentially trying to prove that the accident was caused by the negligence of another person or company, and that this negligence directly led to the injuries that the child suffered from. If our team of personal injury solicitors believe that this can be proven in your case, we will accept your child injury claim on a NO WIN NO FEE basis. 

How do I pay for a child injury claim? 

When you work with MG Legal, we will accept your claim on a NO WIN NO FEE basis. This allows you to enter into the child injury claim at no financial risk, and means that if we do not win financial compensation on your behalf, then you do not owe us a penny. 
 
We work in this way as we believe that everybody deserves to achieve the financial compensation that they deserve in their child injury claim, no matter their financial situation.  
 
No child should suffer from injury due to the negligence of others, and if they do, then they deserve justice for their accident. To learn more about how our NO WIN NO FEE agreements work, see this here, or contact us today to speak to a solicitor.

What happens to children's injury compensation? 

When we obtain financial compensation in child injury claims, this money is protected by the Court until he child reaches the age of 18. At this point, when the child is no longer a minor, the financial compensation will be paid to them. 
 
In some cases, such as where parents or guardians have suffered from lost earnings due to their children’s injuries, a portion of the compensation may be paid out to the parent or guardian. There are also certain circumstances, such as for education or medical care, where some of the compensation can be paid out early. 
 
For more information on how this works, and to speak to a specialist personal injury solicitor about your potential child injury claim, simply contact us online today here. 

Will my child have to go to Court? 

In the vast majority of child injury claims, neither you or your child will have to step foot in a court room. MG Legal’s expert personal injury solicitors settle the majority of our claims out of court, meaning that our clients do not have to go through court proceedings for their claim.  
 
What will most likely happen, is that both you and your child will simply attend a private meeting with a judge, accompanied by your designated personal injury solicitor from MG Legal, who will ensure that the process is entirely stress-free. 
 
If your claim is particularly large or complex, and you do have to attend court, rest assured that your injury solicitor will fight tooth and nail on behalf of your child injury claim, and will guide you through every step of the process so that you never feel stressed or overwhelmed at any point.

How long do I have to make a claim for my injured child? 

If you are making a child injury claim on behalf of your child, you will usually have until the date of the child’s 18th birthday to make a claim on their behalf. After this point, the child will have a further 3 years to make a personal injury claim on their own behalf for their injuries. However, if you are think about making a child injury claim on behalf of a minor, our personal injury solicitors would advise that it is best to do so as soon as possible after the accident occurred. 
 
This is because when you work with MG Legal, you will have access to top medical specialists who will assess your child’s injuries in real time and create strong medical reports in order to support your child injury claim. Our specialist injury solicitors also take time gathering a huge amount of evidence in order to build of clients’ claims to be as strong as possible, a process which can be much more time consuming, and also limited, when a longer period of time has passed since the accident.
