In addition you may be able to recover the cost of any treatment required or adaptations to your home to help get you back on your feet. Where appropriate we will seek interim payments to ensure you can begin to recover compensation as soon as possible, even before the whole claim is finished. If there is a risk of your condition deteriorating in the future, we can explore with you the possibility of provisional damages which would enable us to seek further compensation in future if things did get worse.
