Sports Injury
Every week hundreds of people are injured taking part in recreational and professional sporting activities ranging from football and rugby to cricket, horse riding and skiing. Ashton Lake Solicitors specialise in recovering compensation for people who, through no fault of their own, have been injured whilst participating in sport. We act for people who have sustained all types of injuries including soft tissue injury, broken limbs, spinal cord injury and head injury.
In what circumstances may I be able to recover compensation?
- Another player may have caused injury through violence or inappropriate or excessive behaviour (for example dangerous tackling in football or rugby or dangerous bowling in cricket).
- A sports referee may have been negligent in failing to ensure your safety. Where guidelines are issued by governing bodies to referees, failure to implement them may well result in the referee and governing body being found liable if you are injured as a participant.
- Injury may have occurred due to defective sporting equipment, a badly maintained sports hall or school.
- An accident may have occurred as a result of the negligent supervision of a sporting instructor or coach.
Sports injury claims can be complex and it is advised that you speak to a specialist solicitor. We are experts in bringing claims of this nature. Our aim is to get to the truth of why the accident occurred and to obtain the maximum compensation possible. We pride ourselves in high levels of client care and will always progress your claim with sensitivity at every stage of the process.
