What is a multiple injury claim?
A multiple injury claim is made when a single accident results in more than one injury. These could range from relatively minor to serious or long-term conditions, such as:
- Broken bones
- Head injury
- Brain injury
- Back injury
- Burns
- Cuts and soft tissue damage
- Psychological trauma, including PTSD
Suffering any one of these injuries can be difficult to deal with. When they happen together, the impact on your life can be even more severe. If someone else was responsible for your accident, you may be able to claim compensation for each injury you’ve sustained.
What types of accidents cause multiple injuries?
Multiple injuries are usually the result of serious accidents rather than minor incidents. Some of the most common causes include:
- Road traffic accidents — Crashes involving cars, motorcycles or pedestrians can lead to severe injuries like whiplash, head trauma and internal bleeding.
- Workplace accidents — Unsafe environments or faulty equipment can cause injuries like falls from height, crush injuries or burns.
- Public liability accidents — Trips and falls caused by hazards in public places, such as uneven flooring, missing signage or falling objects, can result in broken bones, spinal cord injuries or head trauma.
- Criminal injuries — Victims of violent assaults may suffer stab wounds, bruising or lasting psychological trauma.
These types of accidents can lead to complex injuries with long-term consequences. Acting quickly can help you claim the full amount of compensation you’re entitled to.
Can you make a claim for multiple injuries?
You may be eligible to make a multiple injury claim if you’ve suffered more than one injury in a single accident and can show that someone else was at fault. This usually involves proving negligence, such as a failure to keep you safe at work, on the road or in a public place.
You can also make a claim on behalf of a loved one if they’re unable to do so themselves, either because of the extent of their injuries or because they’ve passed away. If you’re unsure whether you’re eligible, speak to one of our specialists for expert advice.
How much compensation could you receive?
As with all personal injury claims, the amount of compensation for multiple injuries depends on how serious your injuries are, how they affect your day-to-day life, and any financial losses you’ve suffered.
Compensation is usually divided into two parts:
- General damages cover the pain, suffering and loss of amenity caused by your injuries
- Special damages cover out-of-pocket expenses like lost earnings, medical treatment, care costs and rehabilitation
According to the Judicial College Guidelines, typical general damages for common injuries can include:
| Injury | Payout |
| Severe head injury | £240,000+ |
| Multiple fractures | £20,000 – £150,000 |
| Severe burns | £25,000 – £91,000 |
| Psychological trauma (PTSD, anxiety) | £5,000 – £100,000 |
These are guideline figures and every claim is different. If your injuries aren’t listed here, you can use our compensation calculator to get an estimate tailored to your situation.
What evidence do you need to make a claim?
To make a successful multiple injury claim, you’ll need evidence that shows another party was at fault. Strong evidence will support your case and help maximise your compensation. Useful examples include:
- Accident report — If the accident happened at work, report it to your employer straight away and ensure the details are recorded in the accident book
- Photographs — Take pictures of the accident scene, any hazards involved, and your injuries if possible
- Witnesses statements — Collect contact details from anyone who witnessed the accident
- Medical reports — Medical records provide an official record of your injuries
- CCTV footage — If the incident was caught on camera, request a copy as soon as possible
- Personal diary — Keep a written record of how your injuries are affecting your daily life, including pain levels, mobility issues and the emotional impact

Frequently asked questions
What if I don’t realise the full extent of my injuries straight away?
You can still make a claim if symptoms develop later, as long as it’s within the standard three-year time limit for personal injury claims. This typically starts from the date of the accident or the date you became aware of your injuries.
What if my injuries prevent me from working long-term?
Compensation can cover future loss of earnings and any costs related to retraining, care, or support if your injuries affect your ability to work over the long term.
Can I claim for emotional distress alongside physical injuries?
Yes, psychological harm such as PTSD, anxiety, or depression can be included in your claim. This is assessed as part of your general damages.
