Personal Injury - C.I.C.B Frequently Asked Questions
How Much Will I Receive?
The CICA apply a “Tariff “ approach to the awards of compensation made by them.
Minor injuries such as scratches or bruises will not qualify for an award. Although if a combination of minor injuries takes over 6 weeks to heal from you may have a claim.
The CICA guidelines attribute specific financial values to particualr individual injuries.
There are 25 levels of compensation with level 1 being £1,000 and level 25 being £250,000.00.
By way of example only, a dislocated jaw is regarded a being a level 5 case with a standard amount awarded of £2,000. The loss of four or more front teeth is regarded as a level 7 claim which can attract an award £3,000. A fractured heel bone is a level 6 claim with an award of £2,500.
If you have suffered more than one injury the tariff award will be for the highest rated injury, 10% of the value of the second most serious injury and 5% of the value of the third most serious injury.
