Compensation Calculator
Get an illustrative estimate for a no-fault personal injury claim under Scots law
No-fault claims only. This calculator is for accidents or injuries that were not your fault. If liability is shared or disputed, compensation is reduced by "contributory negligence" and needs a solicitor's assessment — it can't be estimated here.
In Scotland, compensation for pain, suffering and loss of amenity is called solatium rather than "general damages" — we use both terms below so it's clear either way.

About Be Injury Wise (Scotland)
Be Injury Wise (Scotland) is an AI-powered tool providing free, plain-English guidance on personal injury law in Scotland.
Scots law is different
Scotland has its own legal system, separate from England and Wales — different courts (the Sheriff Court, the Court of Session, and the National Personal Injury Court in Edinburgh, established in 2015 as the All-Scotland Sheriff Personal Injury Court), different terminology (e.g. "solatium" instead of "general damages"), and its own regulator for solicitors, the Law Society of Scotland. Everything in this app is written with Scots law specifically in mind.
What we cover
Road traffic accidents, workplace injuries, medical negligence, public liability claims, the claims process, compensation, no-win-no-fee agreements, and time limits for making a claim.
What we don't do
