If you have had an accident in the last 3 years which was not your fault you may be entitled to compensation. Depending on the impact of your injuries on your quality of life, you could receive compensation for:

  • Damage to your property
  • Damage to your vehicle
  • Diminution in value to your vehicle
  • Any expenses incurred as a direct result

Our experienced solicitors and legal executives deal with all types of personal injury claims from road traffic accidents, accidents at work, and cases where you have tripped over something or have slipped on something. We also represent clients who have suffered clinical and medical negligence against hospitals, clinics and individuals. We act for clients both locally and nationally.

WE OFFER NO WIN NO FEE PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS

In most cases we act under what are called Conditional Fee Arrangements or "no win, no fee" agreements. After the event insurance may be available to protect you from the costs associated with your case but we don't arrange insurance policies when they are not needed and will only result in a reduction in your damages.

In most cases you will not have to pay anything as your case proceeds. If we do not think your case has sufficient prospects of success, we will tell you, but when we do proceed we will do all that we can to obtain the best possible result.

OUR PERSONAL INJURY SOLICITORS’ EXPERTISE

Here is the high quality service you can expect from our personal injury lawyers:

  • Clear, pragmatic advice from legal experts – we approach all personal injury matters sensitively but we do not beat around the bush. We will tell you outright your prospects for making a successful claim and the compensation you could receive. This will allow you to make an informed decision about the best way to proceed.
  • High responsiveness – you will have a direct line and email address for your personal lawyer. We will keep you updated throughout your case, but if you have any concerns or queries, you need only pick up the phone.
  • A tailored approach based on years of success– we will listen carefully to your account of what happened and help you assess your compensation needs. While most people associate compensation claims with physical injuries, you can also claim for psychological injuries such as depression, PTSD, or other mental health issues caused by the incident.
  • Professional support – our team are friendly and approachable. We want you to feel comfortable during your time with us and to make the compensation claim process as stress-free as possible.
  • Expert negotiation skills – with our support, it is highly unlikely you will need to go to court to obtain the compensation you deserve. We will robustly negotiate with the person or organisation responsible for your injuries, including locating witnesses or arranging for expert testimony (for example, from medical professionals) where necessary.

ROAD TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS

Road traffic accidents involving cars, bicycles, motorcycles, pedestrians, and other vehicles happen every day, resulting in all sorts of damage, from damage to your vehicle to serious personal injuries and even death in the saddest of circumstances.

Our expertise covers everything from whiplash to psychological injuries caused by witnessing a traumatic accident. We can help even where you were involved in a hit and run or an accident with an uninsured driver. In these situations, we can help you claim from the Motor Insurers’ Bureau.

ACCIDENTS AT WORK

Your employer has a duty to keep you safe at work. If they fail to keep up with their health and safety obligations and you are injured, you could be entitled to compensation. We have advised clients who have suffered all kinds injuries at work, including:

  • Faulty or defective equipment and machinery
  • Accidents while working on or visiting a construction site
  • Injuries caused by falling objects
  • Slips, trips and falls
  • Heavy lifting injuries
  • Crushes
  • Defective scaffolding
  • Chemical spills
  • Injuries resulting from poor safety briefings or health and safety policies

INDUSTRIAL ILLNESSES

Industrial illness, or industrial disease, is a term used to describe any condition or illness you sustain while you are at work. Our expertise includes:

  • Asthma and other respiratory problems
  • Occupational dermatitis and other skin conditions
  • Repetitive Strain Injury
  • Complex Regional Pain Syndrome

CLINICAL AND MEDICAL NEGLIGENCE

When a doctor or another medical professional lets us down, the impact on our confidence and quality of life can be devastating. Unfortunately, the NHS is under a lot of pressure to deliver services to high numbers of patients within considerable financial constraints. Despite this, you are entitled to receive a high quality of medical care and not to suffer injury or loss at the hands of a medical professional.

ACCIDENTS IN PUBLIC PLACES

If you sustain an injury in a public place which could have been avoided if the local authority or owner/occupier took reasonable care to make the area safe, you could be entitled to compensation. Our expertise includes:

  • Slips, trips and falls – for example, as a result of faulty handrails, poorly lit staircases, or broken flooring
  • Claims against local authorities – for example, for injuries sustained in parks or public buildings
  • Claims against private individuals or companies – for example, for injuries sustained in supermarkets, shops, privately owned car parks, or sports and recreation grounds
  • Animal inflicted injuries – for example, dog bites, horse riding accidents, and accidents sustained in zoos or farms
