Living with chronic pain can make life seem a struggle. Difficult to diagnose and even harder to cure, there are many causes. If you suffer from chronic pain caused by someone else's actions or negligence, Slater and Gordon's specialist chronic pain compensation solicitors are here to help you.
Many of our specialist public injury solicitors, including our chronic pain lawyers, are considered leaders in the field with a significant amount of expertise.
One of the most difficult things for people with chronic pain to deal with is that there may be no outward signs of the distress that they are in, and even the best GPs can struggle to understand something they can't see. Even so, our specialist legal team of chronic pain solicitors has encountered enough people suffering with chronic pain to know that an injury doesn't have to be visible to be real.

If you suffer from chronic pain that resulted from someone else's actions or negligence, you can contact us, secure in the knowledge that we understand what you're going through and will do our best to support your chronic pain claim and seek the compensation you need.
It's now well understood that while injuries caused in accidents can lead to chronic pain, there are a number of other medical conditions that may be responsible. These include:
You may have been told that the pain you're feeling is 'all in the mind' - perhaps even by a respected doctor or specialist - but medical science now fully accepts that chronic pain has many causes. As specialist chronic pain lawyers, we believe that where your pain has been caused by someone else's actions or negligence, you may be entitled to make a claim for chronic pain. This can help you with any rehabilitation that may help to ease the pain, and to live your life to the fullest again.
How much can I claim for my chronic pain?
The value of a chronic pain compensation claim depends on a wide variety of factors such as how severe the pain is and the impact that has on your life. As a result of the pain you're suffering, you may have had other expenses such as for medication or treatment, or suffered a loss of earnings, that should also be included in your chronic pain claims.
If you're suffering from chronic pain as a result of an incident which has occurred, contact our experts for specialist advice.
