Personal Injury Compensation Calculators
Each calculator below gives a directional estimate of what your claim could be worth, based on the Judicial College Guidelines and, where relevant, the specific tariff or scheme that applies to your claim type. They’re a starting point for understanding the likely range — not a substitute for a solicitor’s assessment once your medical evidence and financial losses are known. See our how much compensation guide for how these figures are actually worked out.
General Calculator
- Personal Injury Compensation Calculator (UK) — The master calculator covering all injury types — best if your injury doesn’t fit neatly into one category below, or spans several.
Calculators by Injury Type
- Knee Injury Compensation Calculator — For ligament damage, meniscus tears, and knee fractures.
Calculators by Claim Type
- Whiplash Calculator (Tariff 2024) — Uses the fixed OIC portal tariff for whiplash and minor RTA soft tissue injuries.
- CICA Compensation Calculator — For victims of violent crime claiming through the government-funded CICA scheme, rather than a civil claim.
Financial Loss Calculators
- Loss of Earnings Calculator — Estimates past and future lost income, including Ogden Tables future loss.
More calculators covering additional injury types and claim categories are in development and will be added here as they go live.
Common Questions
How accurate are these calculators?
Each one gives a directional estimate based on the published Judicial College Guidelines brackets (or, for CICA and whiplash claims, the relevant fixed tariff). Actual settlements depend on the specific facts of your case, your medical evidence, and the negotiating position of the insurer — treat the result as a starting point rather than a final figure.
Which calculator should I use if I have more than one injury?
Start with the calculator matching your most serious injury, or use the general Personal Injury Compensation Calculator if your injuries span several categories. A solicitor will value multiple injuries together, which can affect the final figure in ways a single calculator won’t capture.
Do I need a solicitor if I’ve already used a calculator?
Yes, for anything beyond a very minor claim. The calculator gives you a starting expectation; a solicitor reviews your actual medical evidence and financial losses to arrive at a supportable figure, and handles negotiation with the other side’s insurer.
