Loss of earnings
Whether you are employed or self employed, if you have been off work due to your injuries we will recover any loss of earnings, bonuses, over-time payments that you can prove you have lost.
Where appropriate we will obtain an advance interim payment on your behalf.
If you are unable to return to your job or have to work reduced hours, we will advise you if you have a potential future loss of earnings claim.
We will obtain reports from expert accountants or employment consultants to support any past or future loss of earnings claim, if necessary.
Medication & Treatment Expenses
As part of your claim we will include your prescription medication expenses, over-the-counter medication purchases, private health care costs and other associated costs. It is therefore advisable to keep all your receipts.
Rehabilitation, Aids, Equipment
If you require rehabilitation such as physiotherapy or other treatment and aids to help you with recovery of your injuries, or more intensive rehabilitation due to serious or catastrophic injuries, we will include the cost of all items, equipment and aids to help assist you or your family in your recovery.
Personal Care and Home Help from Family and Friends
Many claimants are not even aware that they can claim for personal care and assistance from family members and friends.
At SC Law, where appropriate, we will claim for any assistance you require for personal care and housework, provided by your family members and friends.
This may include bathing, feeding, dressing, personal hygiene, being driven to medical appointments and help with domestic chores that you carried out such as housework or shopping or any other related matters, prior to the accident.
DIY and Maintenance Help
If you generally carried out all the DIY and home maintenance tasks, we will also seek to claim these on your behalf.
