How much compensation claim for twisted ankle and fractured elbow in public trip fall accident?

I'm just having a look at making a claim for public liability after slip trip and fall accident, not sure how to find out which is the best company to go through.
I put a claim form into Liverpool City Council and after a fall due to a dip in the pavement (pothole).
The public walkway was dangerous, there broken paving stones all over the street were some heavy machines or HGVs had gone a drove over them.

I caught my shoe in the cavity hole in the ground and this caused me to trip and fall, I twisted my ankle and landed hard on my arm and had to go to A and E in agonising pain, unable to use my arm properly.

I twisted my ankle, fractured my elbow, I was off work for 2 months and have been going to physio every couple of weeks since it happened.

After my claim had been looked into I received a letter saying that last time they surveyed this path last year when it was found to be fine so they are not taking any responsibility for the accident.

Can I get a no win no fee solicitor to sue the local council for negligence and public liability for compensation for my injuries?

What amount of money could I be entitled to for a public trip and fall accident and fractured elbow and twisted ankle?
