PTSD affects a person’s mental state following a traumatic event or episode in their lives. This can come from, but is by no means limited to, being involved in war, abuse, having experienced a major trauma in life like a road traffic incident or if your job involves dealing with traumatic situations.

To give you an idea of how much you may be entitled to claim, here’s some ptsd compensation case studies;

A claimant of a road traffic accident claimed £12,000 following an accident that involved them being trapped in a car after the car was hit be another vehicle which shunted her into a central reservation on a dual carriage way. Along with the common RTA injuries like neck pain, back pain and headaches, she was unable to shake the experience of the accident from her mind, reliving the accident over again each day, having regular nightmares and also finding it difficult to get back in a car.

For military ptsd case studies examples, if can sometimes be tricky to demonstrate how much may be claimed but one case study shows that a veteran with 14 years service was left suffering with PTSD for the rest of his life, he was awarded £160,000 after spending years fighting to get this maximum settlement.

Our final case study is a work related one. A security guard was attached by two suspected shoplifters. Following injuries to the head including a fractured skull as well as other injuries to the body he found that he was unable to return to work as a security guard, becoming depressed and withdrawn as well as suffering violent flash backs. He was diagnosed with PTSD and was awarded £150,000 in damages.

These figures might lead you to believe that all of these were ptsd compensation success stories but when asking ‘how much compensation do you get for ptsd’ it’s important to remember that every incident is it’s own unique event so the amount of compensation that you may receive for incidents that at first glance may appear to be the same as the previously mentioned case studies.
