Personal injury claims in Edinburgh
From the city bypass to the Royal Mile, accidents happen across Edinburgh every day. Whether on the capital’s busy roads, in its workplaces, or on its historic cobbled streets, if someone else was to blame, it’s worth finding out where you stand.
What you could be owed
A claim could cover:
- Your injury — the pain and how it has affected your life (known in Scots law as solatium)
- Lost earnings — past and future, if you’ve had time off or can’t work as before
- Treatment and care — rehabilitation, and help from family
- Out-of-pocket costs — from travel to appointments to aids and adaptations
What you could receive depends on your circumstances.
Claims in Edinburgh follow Scots law
Claims in Edinburgh follow Scots law and are handled by specialist Scottish solicitors. Edinburgh is home to the All-Scotland Personal Injury Court and the Court of Session, Scotland’s supreme civil court.
The whiplash tariff and Official Injury Claim portal used in England and Wales do not apply in Scotland. You have three years to claim under the Prescription and Limitation (Scotland) Act 1973.
