Serious injury claims in Bristol: The local picture

Serious injuries happen too often in Bristol, and the numbers tell a story that hits close to home. Here are some key statistics on serious injury claims and incidents in the city:

  • Road traffic accidents (RTAs): Local estimates suggest over 500 serious injuries occur annually on Bristol roads, with hotspots like the A38 and A420 seeing frequent claims.
  • Workplace injuries: The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) reported 604,000 non-fatal workplace injuries UK-wide in 2023/24, with around 124,000 lasting over seven days, often deemed “serious.” Bristol, with its thriving construction and logistics sectors, likely contributes 5,000–7,000 injuries annually, including hundreds of serious cases leading to claims.
  • Claim payouts: Bristol City Council paid out over £600,000 in personal injury claims between 2015 and 2020, including a single £60,000 settlement for a trip-or-fall case. This reflects the scale of public liability claims in the city.
  • Success rates: Nationally, 70% of personal injury claimants with legal support receive payouts (Association of Personal Injury Lawyers), a trend mirrored in Bristol where skilled representation boosts outcomes.

These stats show that serious injuries, and the claims that follow, are a real issue here. If you’re one of those affected, we’re ready to help you join the many Bristolians who’ve successfully claimed.

What makes a serious injury claim?

You might have a case if you’ve suffered a life-altering injury due to someone else’s negligence, such as:

  • Brain or spinal injuries from a crash or fall
  • Amputations or severe fractures from workplace accidents
  • Chronic pain or disability caused by medical errors
  • Serious burns or scarring from unsafe conditions

Whether it happened on Stokes Croft, at a building site in Temple Quay, or in a hospital like Southmead, we’ll investigate and fight for you.
