What counts as a serious injury?
A serious injury is typically one that has long-lasting or life-altering effects. These might include:
- Brain and head injuries
- Spinal cord injuries
- Amputations
- Severe burns or scarring
- Multiple fractures
- Loss of vision or hearing
- Internal organ damage
Such injuries often lead to prolonged hospital stays, multiple surgeries, long-term rehabilitation, and, in many cases, permanent disability. They may also cause psychological distress, including PTSD, depression or anxiety.

Frequently asked questions
Can I claim a serious injury caused by medical negligence at Blaby?
Yes, if a healthcare provider in Blaby or nearby (such as Leicester Royal Infirmary or your local GP surgery) failed in their duty of care and this led to your injury, you may be entitled to compensation. Our legal team can help assess your case and gather the necessary evidence.
