Time Limits For back Injuries Compensation Claims
Time limits apply strictly to back injury compensation claims. You have three years from the date of the injury or from when you first became aware of the injury to start your claim. If your back injury develops gradually, the time limit begins when symptoms become apparent.
Claims involving minors or those lacking mental capacity may see extended time limits, with a legal representative able to act on their behalf. For injuries caused at work, the same three-year rule applies, but reporting the injury promptly to your employer is crucial. Failing to act within these limits usually results in losing the right to compensation.
Understanding these time limits is vital for your back injury claims to succeed. Why not call today to see if you can start a back injury compensation claim?

Accident reports such as employer records, police reports, or incident logs confirming how and when the injury occurred.
