Groin Injury Claims

Groin injury occurs when the muscles of the groin area are stretched beyond their limits, thereby causing the muscles and surrounding tissue to tear. Groin injuries can be as simple as a pulled muscle or sprained tendon, or can be something more serious like a hernia, which is when an abdominal injury occurs, pressing into the tissue or muscle surrounding it and causing significant pain. Groin injuries are fairly common personal injuries that are often covered under the no win no fee system, depending on how they occurred. Most groin injuries occur as a direct result of individuals placing an unusually large amount of strain or pressure on a region, mostly related to intense physical activity. Heavy lifting on the job is one of the leading causes of groin and stomach injuries.

Since your employer owes you a duty of care and is required by law to provide reasonable measures of safety, you are entitled to no win no fee compensation as long as you can prove your employer was in some way negligent and caused you to injure yourself. Whether or not you are allowed to make a groin injury claim depends on the circumstances leading up to the injury, as well as the severity. Considering all personal injury claims are taken very seriously under the no win no fee system, your best course of action is to contact a no win no fee lawyer and find out whether or not you are eligible to make a no win no fee compensation claim.
