Arm Injury Claims

Arm Injury Claims – Helping You Get Back on Track

Have you injured your arm in an accident that wasn’t your fault?
From lifting your shopping bags to typing on a computer, our arms are involved in nearly everything we do each day. When an accident leaves you with a painful arm injury, it doesn’t just hurt – it can stop you working, driving, or even carrying out the simplest tasks at home. Many people feel frustrated, helpless, or worried about money after such an injury. That’s where we come in.

At Claims 24 Hours, we believe no one should suffer in silence if their injury was caused by someone else’s mistake. Whether it’s a sprain from a fall, a broken bone from a car crash, or a serious fracture at work, we help you claim the compensation you deserve. This money can cover lost wages, medical bills, and the everyday costs that pile up while you’re recovering.

And the best part? Our service is No Win, No Fee – so there’s no risk to you. We take care of the legal side, while you focus on getting better.

Types of Arm Injuries You Can Claim For

Arm injuries vary in severity, and the impact on your life can be big or small. Common claimable arm injuries include:

  • Sprains and strains – often caused by slips, trips, or lifting accidents
  • Fractures and breaks – affecting the forearm, wrist, or upper arm
  • Dislocations – often painful, sometimes needing surgery
  • Soft tissue damage – muscle or tendon injuries that take weeks to heal
  • Serious injuries – multiple fractures, nerve damage, or permanent disability

Each injury is different, which is why compensation amounts vary.

Common Causes of Arm Injuries

You could suffer an arm injury in many ways. Some of the most common include:

  • Slips, trips, and falls – catching yourself with your arm and breaking a bone
  • Workplace accidents – lifting heavy loads, machinery accidents, or falling objects
  • Road accidents – car crashes, bike or motorbike accidents
  • Sports accidents – collisions or unsafe equipment leading to arm fractures
  • Medical negligence – poor treatment that worsens an existing arm injury

If someone else was responsible, you may have a strong claim.

How Much Compensation for Arm Injury Claims?

Compensation depends on how bad the injury is and how it affects your daily life. According to the Judicial College Guidelines, payouts for arm injuries can include:
