The basics

At its simplest, falling object injury claims comes down to who was responsible, how you were affected, and what you are entitled to recover. A solicitor gathers evidence, values your claim and negotiates on your behalf.

What affects your claim

Several things influence the outcome:

• The strength of the evidence you can provide
• How clearly fault can be established
• The severity and lasting impact of your injury
• Your financial losses, now and in the future
• Whether you were partly responsible

What to do next

Keep any evidence you have, note down what happened while it's fresh, and seek medical attention if you haven't already. Then speak to a specialist who can tell you whether you have a claim and what it could be worth — for free.
