Car Accident Tissue Damage

Soft tissue injury calculator

Soft tissue as we all know relates to muscle, ligament and cartilage damage. The Injuries Board (PIAB) in Ireland publishes what is called the “Book of Quantum” which lists the various possible injuries and a recommendation for compensation for the injury suffered. Included in this list are soft tissue injuries. It is, after all, only a recommendation from the Injuries Board (PIAB) and is not binding on the parties involved and can be rejected by one or all the parties. Of course, the “Book of Quantum” does not, because it cannot evaluate either the seriousness of the Injury or the pain and suffering endured by the person injured. In soft tissue injuries, it is very difficult to evaluate either the seriousness of the Injury or the pain and suffering endured by the person injured.

As we can see with so many possible variables, it is easy to understand why no two soft tissue injury claims for personal injury compensation are the same. It could be possible that the perception of how much a claim for compensation for a soft tissue injury someone should be entitled to is based upon what the Injuries Board (PIAB) has in its “Book of Quantum” but, unless one undergoes a medical evaluation of the soft tissue injury and its consequences under the supervision of an experienced and expert soft tissue injury claims solicitor, it is unlikely that one will ever be certain that any assessment made by the Injuries Board (PIAB) reflects the true and full extent of one’s soft tissue injury or represents adequate soft tissue injury compensation.

However, if one has suffered any form of negative effect on one’s emotional well-being due to how ones work soft tissue injury occurred or during recovery, one may also be able to include this element of one’s accident in a soft tissue injury claim for compensation. Victims of a soft tissue injury can also and often develop Post Traumatic Stress Disorder if the soft tissue injury occurred in a particularly violent accident, or the injured party become anxious and depressed during their recovery from damaged tissues. Furthermore, if these emotional traumas manifested after the medical examination of one’s soft tissue injury had taken place, the trauma of Post-Traumatic                                                                                                                         Stress Disorder could have been omitted from the information communicated to the Injuries Board (PIAB) and left out of the Injuries Board´s assessment of one’s claim for soft tissue injury compensation.

The Injuries Board (PIAB) and their “Book of Quantum” has come into much criticism and rightly so for the low values that they have put on Soft tissue injuries.

As this article is very vague about the significance and the worth of a Soft tissue injury it is only by going to the Injuries Board (PIAB) with an experienced and successful soft tissue solicitor that any idea of how much the soft tissue injury is worth will any handle be got on a Soft tissue injury calculator.
