Jaw Injury Claim Experts
If you have suffered a broken jaw as a result of an accident or injury, you may be entitled to claim compensation.
Damage to the jaw, such as dislocation or a broken jawbone, can have a detrimental impact on an individual’s quality of life on a long term or temporary basis. A damaged jaw can leave a person unable to eat, talk, or breathe properly, as well as potentially leaving them with permanent disfigurement or injury.
If you have sustained an injury to your jaw as the result of an accident through no fault of your own, our experienced team of personal injury claim solicitors can help you to get the compensation that you are entitled to.
Please contact the serious injury claims team at PSR Solicitors for a free initial consultation on the number at the top of this page or by completing the online enquiry form below.

The jaw is made up of several parts: the upper jawbone, mostly consisting of the maxilla bone, which does not move and houses the upper teeth. It also includes the lower jawbone which is known as the mandible, and is the only moving bone on the face, as well as the surrounding muscles, ligaments, and tendons that make up the jaw.
In order for the jaw to function properly, the upper and lower jawbones must be aligned correctly. If the jaw is injured and the upper and lower parts become misaligned, it can become difficult or impossible to bite, chew and swallow food properly, and victims may experience difficulty in maintaining good oral hygiene. Some people may also experience facial numbness, facial disfigurement, or damage to the teeth as a result of trauma to the jaw.
If you sustain an injury to your jaw, such as a bone fracture, breakage, or dislocation, or a tear to a muscle, tendon, or ligament, you may be entitled to make a broken jaw claim for compensation. We also advise that you seek medical treatment for any jaw injury as soon as possible; a delay in receiving treatment could mean your injury takes longer to heal or that you experience longer term jaw complications.
A Broken Jaw Injury is primarily caused by trauma to the face, which could include one of the following types of incidents or accident:
This list is by no means exhaustive, and if you have sustained a jaw injury through any type of accident or incident which occurred through no fault of your own, please get in touch with us here at PSR Solicitors and our team will be happy to discuss the situation with you and advise you on the next step.
If you have been involved in an accident or incident and think you may have broken or dislocated your jaw, you may be experiencing some of the following symptoms:
Broken Jaw.
Dislocated Jaw.
A jaw injury may also cause cuts to appear in the ear canal, which can happen when the jaw bone is pushed backwards into the skull. Additionally, the impact of the injury may also cause teeth to become loose or fall out.
If you have been involved in an accident and sustained an injury to your jaw, you will need to see a doctor as soon as possible who will conduct a physical examination where they will check for swelling and any other visible symptoms of a broken or fractured jaw. An x-ray is often necessary to identify the location and severity of the fracture or bone breakage and determine the correct course of treatment to help your jaw heal properly.
The method of treatment recommended by your doctor will vary depending on the type and severity of your injury. Medication is usually prescribed to reduce swelling and help you to manage the pain whilst your jaw heals itself. In some cases the upper and lower teeth may need to be wired together in order to keep the jaw stable and immobile to allow the broken or fractured bones to heal in the correct position.
During your recovery from a jaw injury you may find it difficult to eat properly or speak clearly, and certainly if your jaw is wired you would not be able to eat solid foods whilst the wire was in place. Recovering from a broken jaw injury affects people not only physically, but mentally too. Being suddenly unable to communicate verbally can have a detrimental effect on your mental health, and may mean you need to take extensive time off work, depending on the nature of your job.
If you have suffered from a loss of earnings whilst recovering from your injury, our specialist team of personal injury lawyers can help you to claim broken jaw compensation.
If your Broken Jaw Compensation Claim is successful, it will be awarded in two parts - general damages, and special damages, as follows:
General Damages
This is the primary aspect of any personal injury compensation award. Within general damages, the injured party is compensated for the pain, suffering, and the general effect that the injury has had on their usual way of life.
Special Damages
The secondary aspect of a personal injury claim is intended to reimburse the claimant for any financial loss or expenses they have incurred due to their injury. This includes money they may have had to spend on private medical treatment and prescriptions, transport and parking costs when attending medical appointments, as well as their loss of earnings, or the financial loss experienced by anyone who has had to take time off work to care for the injured person.
Each claim is assessed on an individual basis, so it is difficult to estimate exactly how much compensation you may receive until we have all of the necessary information. If you’d like to find out more about claiming compensation for a Broken Jaw Injury, please get in touch with us here at PSR Solicitors and we’ll be more than happy to offer help and advice.
Personal injury is an extremely specialist and complex area of the law so for the best chance of securing the maximum amount of compensation available, you will need to instruct qualified, legal professionals with the necessary expertise and experience to bring your claim to a successful conclusion.
Research suggests that fewer than 10% of people who contact a law firm for help are actually able to speak to a qualified solicitor and by employing teams of unqualified fee earners, many law firms are putting their clients’ compensation at risk.
At PSR solicitors, we have the skill and specialism necessary to negotiate with insurance companies, and are wholly aware of the tactics some of them employ to try and avoid paying out on a claim. We have the understanding and experience to know how to combat them decisively and effectively and frequently recover more personal injury claims than our rivals.
Once you have received treatment for your jaw injury, you may be starting to look for legal advice regarding your potential compensation claim. Many people delay claiming what they are entitled to because they are concerned about how much it may cost them, especially if the claim is not successful.
Here at PSR Solicitors we understand that nobody wants to be left out of pocket, especially after enduring the financial cost of your injury, such as loss of earnings and medical expenses. This is why we offer our broken jaw injury compensation service on a no win no fee basis for clients who have legitimate grounds to claim. There is no upfront fee to pay to us. If your claim is successful, we simply deduct our fees from your compensation award before you receive it; and in the unlikely event that your claim is unsuccessful, you won’t owe us a single penny for our services.
We hope that this puts your mind at ease when it comes to claiming the compensation that you deserve. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
If you are suffering from a broken jaw injury as the result of an accident that wasn't your fault within the past three years please don’t hesitate to contact us today for help pursuing your compensation claim.
We will respond to your query within one hour of normal office hours, or the next working day if you contact us during the evening or at the weekend.

Richard Layfield LLB
Solicitor - Head of Personal Injury
I've been a Solicitor at PSR Solicitors since March 2013 and am head of Personal Injury throughout the firm as well as having full responsibility for managing the Rhyl office.
I completed both my Law LLB and LPC degrees at Cardiff University, graduating in 2008 and 2009 respectively. Thereafter, I completed my 2-year training contract at a firm based in Cardiff, then I was retained by this firm as a Criminal Defence Solicitor until I decided to relocate up to North Wales.
As an experienced personal injury and civil litigation Solicitor, I represent Claimants in all manner of personal injury case work including injuries as a result of Road Traffic Accidents, Accidents at Work, and Occupiers Liability Accidents. I handle all types off personal injury claims from the minor right through to complex, serious injury claims.
Outside of work I'm a keen rugby fan, who enjoys running and travel.

Paul Rossiter LLB Law
Managing Director
I qualified as a solicitor in 1998 and worked as a Personal Injury Specialist throughout my legal career, dealing with high value serious injury cases obtaining both compensation and rehabilitation for my clients. I was a member of APIL (Association Of Personal injury Lawyers) and recognised by the Law Society as being a Senior Personal Injury Solicitor.
After working in various law firms, both small high street firms and a larger practice in Manchester, I saw a gap in the market for a high quality practice that had the same core high street values of being personable and approachable and combining them with the efficiency and professionalism of a larger practice. PSR Solicitors was therefore established in 2009 and since then PSR Solicitors has provided high quality legal services to local clients throughout North Wales and Cheshire.
I live in Chester with my young family and 2 dogs and enjoy regular holidays along the coast of North Wales and Ibiza.
I have recently been asked to join the board of trustees at Platform For Life, a mental health counselling charity in Chester. Good mental health is the foundation of a more fulfilled, happy and healthy life, yet many families struggle to access the help and support they need to achieve it. Platform for Life offers free local counselling and play therapy for families who would otherwise not be able to afford it.

Mark House LLB
Solicitor - Head of Litigation
USUAL LOCATIONS: Shotton Office, Wrexham Office, Colwyn Bay Office, Wallasey Office
I completed my law degree and legal practice course at Nottingham Law School, before qualifying as a solicitor in 2004. I then worked at a specialist personal injury firm in the East Midlands and a leading regional firm, before joining PSR in 2017.
With PSR I've continued to specialise in acting for Personal Injury claimants and have developed a keen understanding of the procedures and tactics involved in pursuing a claim, as well as the difficulties and concerns faced by people who have suffered as the result of an accident.
Since 2014 I've been proud to help hundreds of people. I've represented the public in all manner of injury claims, including serious orthopaedic injuries, brain damage, and psychological trauma. I was instructed to deal with claims for clients in the aftermath of the Potters Bar rail crash and the Penhallow hotel fire.
In addition, I represent clients in relation to all manner of disputes. I have dealt with professional negligence claims, such as those against solicitors and builders. I have helped clients recover money which is due to them and to dispute invoices which have been sent to them. I have helped business defend claims against them. I have tackled neighbour and boundary disputes.
I live locally to the Colwyn Bay office, and outside of work, I enjoy taking advantage of the coastal and mountain outdoor activities which are available on the doorstep. I'm also heavily involved with an outdoor pursuits charity, which I find an enjoyable and rewarding way of using my free time.
