Chest injuries cover harm to the chest wall, ribs, lungs or heart caused by accidents such as road traffic collisions, falls, or occupational exposure. A solicitor practicing in this area handles civil claims under the Civil Procedure Rules, gathering medical records and expert reports, securing liability evidence, and coordinating with insurers and defendant solicitors. They draft and lodge the claim, manage disclosure, negotiate settlements or progress to court, and advise on rehabilitation, care needs and resulting losses such as future earnings.
