Sport / leisure injury

There is always a risk in playing any type of sport.  But if you have an accident while playing or watching sport and it was not your fault, you may be entitled to claim for compensation.

When can you claim compensation?

You won’t be able to make a personal injury compensation claim if you tripped or fell for no reason or if your injury was caused by the normal “rough and tumble” of the game. 

But Claims Direct can help you make a compensation claim if your accident was caused by:

Faulty equipment

• The poor condition of the playing surface or viewing area
• Reckless or malicious behaviour by another player
• Inadequate training or supervision
• Negligent medical advice or treatment.
  

Claims Direct can help

Sports injury claims are often difficult to prove because there is always a chance you will get injured when taking part in sport.  Witness statements from players and the match official are often vital.  So Claims Direct uses lawyers who are experienced in dealing with sports injuries or injuries which stop someone being able to take part in sport.

If you have suffered from a sports injury, it is vital you get rehabilitation and we will support you through this process and ensure you get the treatment you need.
