Fractured Jaw Compensation Amount
The jaw is an important part of your body, and a fracture can occur in the upper or lower jawbone. Damage to either can present problems with chewing food and speaking. If your jaw ends up being fractured it can mean you have difficulty doing one or both of these things. See below for details of how much compensation for a fractured jaw you could be entitled to.

how much compensation for a fractured jaw
All personal injury cases are unique and so the amount of compensation that is awarded in each case is also unique. The amount of compensation that is awarded is determined by looking at two distinct factors – general damages and special damages.
GENERAL DAMAGES
The pain and suffering that your injuries have caused is the main factor that is used to determine how much compensation you are owed.
SPECIAL DAMAGES
However, compensation also takes into account any financial losses that you might have suffered as a result of your injuries, such as a loss of earnings due to being unable to return to work.
Except for children, there is a three-year time limit on making a personal injury claim. This time limit begins from the date that the accident occurred. You should contact a personal injury solicitor as soon as possible to assess your case.
