Negligence is the most common way to file a personal injury claim in Singapore. To prove negligence, one must prove that the defendant owed a legal duty of care, that duty was breached, and the breach caused damages. If these factors are proven, damages can be recovered for physical and mental suffering as well as foreseeable financial losses like lost wages and medical expenses. There is a three-year statute of limitations from the date of injury to file a personal injury claim.

2. Negligence is the most common way for a person to file for compensation for a personal injury claim in
Singapore. Basically to prove negligence, one has to prove 3 factors first
1. that the defendant owed him/her a legal duty to take care;
2. that there was a breach of this legal duty by the defendant; and
3. That the breach caused him/her recoverable damage.
If these 3 factors are successfully proven, one can then recover damages (compensation) for physical and
mental suffering. One may also be compensated for foreseeable consequential losses from the injury which
includes but is not limited to: loss of wages, medical expenses and transport expenses to seek medical
treatment.
One must also note the time period during which such claims will be valid for, which is 3 years from the date of
the injury.
