Personal Injury

If you are involved in an accident, which was somebody else’s fault, whether it is on the road, at work or on the street, and you are injured as a result, you may be entitled to be compensated. You are also entitled to be reimbursed for any reasonable losses/expenses which you incur as a result.

Personal InjuryThe first step in any claim for damages or compensation is to establish that the party against whom you are claiming was at fault or negligent.

Often the other party will accept responsibility for an accident in which case the claim will turn solely upon the level of compensation to which you are entitled and our professional responsibility to you is to ensure that we get you the best possible settlement.

If the other party does not accept responsibility, it may be necessary to issue Court proceedings.

If Court proceedings are issued it does not necessarily mean that your case will proceed to a hearing. We must stress that a large proportion of cases do settle without going to a final hearing.

No win no fee – We guarantee that we shall at all times protect your position, and that whether you win or lose your case there will be no hidden costs.

We have prepared a simple diagram which will hopefully help you to get a better understanding of this process.  Please feel free to contact us if you have any queries.
