Broken Ankle Compensation
After a nasty injury which wasn’t your fault it’s common to wonder how much compensation your claim could be worth.
Broken ankles are notoriously painful and can be difficult to heal.
A bad fracture will always have a significant effect on your quality of life and mobility.
How much is Your Claim Worth?
The range of damages for Broken Ankle Compensation is extremely broad.
Much will depend upon the type of fracture sustained and the severity of any ongoing symptoms.
Compensation can vary from a modest injury claim of £4,590 where a complete recovery is achieved within a year.
Broken Ankle Compensation claims can be worth up to £53,800 for the most serious of injuries.
These injuries will involve permanent and serious mobility problems.
The compensation is very much determined by any ongoing or long term symptoms.

It will be for your solicitor to make sure that all the various losses are investigated and supported where possible with documentary evidence.
Here are some common heads of loss which we set out below:
- Loss of Earnings (Past as well as Future) – this should include not only any shortfalls in your salary but any bonuses or any benefits you were due to receive;
- Travelling Expenses – you can claim back any travelling expenses that you have incurred arising out of the injury;
- Medical Expenses – these can be extensive depending upon the severity of the injury but can include physiotherapy treatment and other rehabilitation treatment costs, prescriptions etc.
- Care – If you need paid help (or rely on friends and family for care) then a claim for care should submitted;
