Football Injury Claims in Bolton
Football is the sport with the highest number of participants in the UK. Due to the high intensity nature of football, plus the large numbers playing, it’s more common to see football injury claims than most other sports. Such accidents see multiple compensation amounts paid out each year.
If you have been injured or assaulted whilst playing football in Bolton, and your injuries were of no fault of your own, then you could be eligible to claim for football injury compensation.
Proving Fault for Compensation
We will need to prove negligence of a third party. So it will help your football injury claim if you can supply medical records, police reports (if called), witness statements, plus details of any expenses incurred as a result of your injury. If you have photographic or film evidence, that can really help swing a compensation claim in your favour.
