Frequently Asked Questions

Can My Compensation Pay For Any Cosmetic Surgery?

Yes, if you’ve suffered an eye injury and you’re unhappy with the cosmetic appearance of your damaged eye we could arrange for a cosmetic prosthesis (an artificial eye) or a cosmetic shell (similar to a contact lens) to be made.

A damaged eye can also lose shape over time, your compensation can cover any corrective eyelid surgery you may need in future.

Our team of serious injury solicitors will take all your needs into account to make sure your compensation is fair and covers any immediate and future support you or a loved one may need.

Will I have To Attend A Medical Appointment?

As part of the claims process we’ll arrange for an independent eye specialist to examine your injuries. They’ll give a long term prognosis and see if there are risks of future deterioration.

They’ll also tell us if you can return to or gain employment (or return to education for a child) and if you’ll have a similar lifestyle to the one before your injury.

This information will help our solicitors determine the right amount of compensation for you which will make sure all your needs are taken care of.

How Can Irwin Mitchell Help?

Independent legal guides recognise us as one of the best personal injury law firms in the country and we'll do everything possible to help you get the compensation you deserve. Your solicitor will keep you fully informed of everything that’s happening throughout your claim.

In certain circumstances, we can try to get you an early payment from your compensation so that you can pay your bills (if you can’t work, for example) or to pay for private treatment to help you recover as quickly as possible. We’re also experienced in taking on complex claims and will often take on cases that have been turned away by other solicitors.

Our commitment goes beyond financial compensation, making sure that you get the best available care, from medical treatment to rehabilitation and other specialist support.

As a full-service law firm we can also provide a number of specialist support services which may be able to help with your circumstances. We have experts in areas including:

Wills – We can help you make a Will in order to protect your family in the future and can help with handling the affairs of a loved one who has passed away.
Court of Protection – Our Court of Protection lawyers could provide you with advice on managing someone else’s affairs if they are unable to, and help in disputes relating to social care and medical treatment. The team can also help set up personal injury trusts which can mean that your compensation award isn’t considered when you’re assessed for certain means-tested benefits.
Employment – We can provide specialist advice on issues that may arise such as sick pay and your ability to complete your role.
Asset Management – This team can help plan how your compensation could be invested to ensure that funds are available throughout your life.
Rehabilitation – Our support and rehabilitation coordinators can help you access the rehabilitation services and support you need in order to make the best recovery possible.
