Common Causes of Broken Arm Injuries

Broken arms can happen in various situations, often due to negligence or unsafe conditions. Some of the most common causes include:

Workplace Accidents

Falls from heights, scaffolding, or ladders.
Machinery-related injuries due to equipment malfunctions or lack of safety training.
Slips, trips, and falls caused by wet, cluttered, or uneven surfaces.

Road Traffic Accidents

Car, motorcycle, or bicycle crashes.
Pedestrians hit by vehicles.

Public Place Accidents

Uneven pavements, poorly maintained walkways, or defective staircases.
Slip-and-fall incidents in shops, restaurants, or public buildings.

Sports Accidents

Improperly maintained equipment or lack of supervision.

Medical Negligence

Misdiagnosis or delayed treatment of a fractured arm, leading to complications.

If your injury resulted from any of these scenarios, you may have a valid claim. Our team at Integrity Law is here to help you take legal action and recover the compensation you deserve.

Legal Framework for Broken Arm Claims

To successfully claim compensation, you must establish the following legal elements:

Duty of Care – The responsible party had a legal obligation to ensure your safety.
Breach of Duty – They failed to uphold that duty through negligence or inaction.
Causation – Their negligence directly resulted in your injury.
Damages – You suffered physical, emotional, or financial harm due to the injury.

Examples include:

• Employers must provide a safe work environment.
• Drivers must follow traffic laws and drive responsibly.
• Property Owners must maintain safe premises to prevent accidents.

If any of these duties were breached, you may be entitled to file a compensation claim.

What Compensation Can Cover

The compensation you receive will depend on the severity of your injury and its impact on your life. It typically includes:

General Damages

Compensation for pain, suffering, and reduced quality of life.
Psychological effects such as stress, trauma, and anxiety caused by the injury.

Special Damages

Medical costs, including hospital treatment, surgery, and physiotherapy.
Loss of earnings if you had to take time off work.
Future loss of income if your injury affects your ability to work long-term.
Travel expenses for medical appointments.
Mobility aids or home adaptations, if required.

At Integrity Law, we fight for the maximum compensation possible so you can focus on your recovery without financial stress.

Time Limits for Filing a Claim

In the UK, there is a strict legal deadline for filing a broken arm injury claim:

• Three years from the date of the accident.
• For children, the three-year limit starts from their 18th birthday.
• Exceptions may apply for individuals with limited mental capacity.

Acting quickly ensures you don’t miss the deadline and gives your case the best chance of success.
