Personal Injury - How can we help? PDF Print E-mail

Only rarely will Insurance Companies admit fault, even in the most straightforward and obvious cases.

We will get on with your claim quickly. If you were involved in a road traffic, tripping or work related accident then we will visit the site of the incident, make contact with any appropriate statutory authorities e.g. Police, Health & Safety Executive, Utility Companies etc...

We will do whatever is necessary to give you an indication of liability at the earliest possible opportunity.

We will arrange for you to be medically examined as soon as practicable after we receive instructions from you. In this way we will be able to not only commence negotiations with the other party but, if necessary issue Court Proceedings at the first available opportunity. Where necessary, we will take steps to obtain interim damages as they may be badly needed.

How long will it take?

These things go on for years - don't they?

No

Even now, there is rarely any reason why a claim should continue beyond the second anniversary of your injury. Occasionally medical experts may be unable to predict with any certainty the rate and extent of your injuries and your recovery - in these circumstances it may prolong the length of time taken to settle your case.

Since April 1999 new reforms are in place. The purpose of these reforms is to make the legal system quicker and more responsive to clients' needs. Once this system is fully operational, it will no longer be possible for defendants to delay settling claims.

What will it cost?
It is now possible to act for you by a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA). If , after starting proceedings in Court we don't win, you don't pay.

When we do win, you will pay a proportion of your damages as a success fee to us. The amount of that fee depends upon the size and complexity of your case - it is also very strictly limited by Law Society guidelines.

In some case instances, clients my have a household insureance that may cover their costs. Please speak to our lawyers if you think this is the case.

How much will I get?
As specialist lawyers, we aim to maximise the amount of damages that you receive. In this way you will be properly rewarded for the pain and suffering that you have borne and that you are as comfortable as possible financially speaking.

You will receive the finest advice and representation from a firm that is a member of the Law Society Specialist Personal Injury Panel, the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers, Headway an organisation that specialises in head and brain injury claims, and Action for the Victims of Medical Accidents.
