Accidents

Any kind of accident, whether it's road, rail, air, sea, or sports-related, grants the injured party the right to compensation. In the event of death, the right belongs to the family members. Those responsible for the accident and their respective insurance companies are obliged to recognize and compensate for the full extent of the damages caused by the event.

WHIPLASH
Law no. 27 of 24.03.2012, enacted by the Monti Government, has established new criteria for the compensation of minor injuries. Specifically, the law states that minor injuries, not demonstrable through instrumental examinations like X-rays, are not eligible for biological damage compensation.
This means that insurance companies, based on this law, can decide not to compensate for so-called 'whiplashes' if they are not supported by X-rays, considering them not disabling. Therefore, nowadays, obtaining compensation for a whiplash has become more complex and challenging than in the past.

Another aspect introduced by law 27 concerns the objectivity of injury assessment. In practice, those who do not rely on facilities like New All Assistance will be evaluated based on the visit of the forensic doctor appointed by the insurance company, who tends to favor the same company.
