Rotator Cuff Injury Compensation Claims

The shoulder is made up of four muscles, and an injury to any of them counts as a rotator cuff injury. You may have hurt your shoulder in a specific incident – more of that below – or it may develop over time – more of that below, too.

You can injure your rotator cuff during strenuous activity, but it’s also possible to damage it doing something innocuous, like rolling over in bed.

In general, successful compensation claims are made when the injured party is not at fault for the accident. Accident Advice has many pages devoted to specific types of accident that you may find helpful and interesting.

If, for example, you’ve hurt yourself in a Road Traffic Accident, please take a look at our page dealing specifically with those types of injuries.

Similarly, if you’ve damaged your rotator cuff whilst at work, you’ll be making a Work Injury Claim, so have a read of our page on the subject, and also feel free to take a look at the case studies which explain a bit more about how it all works.

We also help our clients with accident compensation if they’ve been hurt playing sport. Our page on Sporting Injury Claims will tell you more.

Nowadays, local authorities are responsible for ensuring that roads and pavements are maintained properly. If you have fallen in the street because of a crumbling kerb or uneven paving stone, for example, and injured your rotator cuff, we can help you get the injury compensation you deserve.

First of all, you must see a medical professional as soon as possible, so that your rotator cuff injury symptoms can be assessed. Once this has happened, you can start getting better, and begin any treatment, physio or rehab that you need.

Should your injury require you to take time off work, please don’t worry. Also don’t worry if the process of rehabilitation sounds expensive – if you succeed in your claim, all of this will be taken care of, leaving you to focus on getting better.

If anyone saw you get injured, or is able to provide details of why you were injured – a work colleague, for example – please try and get their details, as the account of an independent witness can help with your claim.

There is no one better at handling personal injury claims than Accident Advice. Our panel of specialist, independent lawyers will know exactly how to handle your claim, and work on a 100% No Win No Fee basis, so you’ll always know that they’re acting in your best interests alone.
