Personal Injury Claim

A personal injury claim for compensation can come about from a number of circumstances and different injuries.

You may have suffered a trip or fall whilst at work, or out shopping?

If you sustain an injury through someone else’s criminal act or through someone’s negligence, be it a shopkeeper, solicitor or even doctor, than you may be able to file a compensation claim.

Whatever the circumstances or the location of the event if you have suffered because of another person’s actions, either directly or indirectly, than you should consider making a compensation claim.

On the pages of this website you will find information on many different kinds of personal injuries and how you can make a compensation claim against the person or people responsible.

 

Do You Want To Make a Personal Injury Claim?

If you want to make a claim for compensation or merely register a complaint there are a number of steps that you must take to increase the chances of a successful outcome.

A successful outcome can be measured both by money received as compensation, or via an apology – it depends on the case and how far you want to pursue it.

I don’t think it unreasonable to assume that most of us will want to be financially compensated for the injuries we have suffered and that is perfectly reasonable and acceptable.

Taking Action

The following steps are all advised to enable you to gather sufficient evidence and material to support your case when you present it to your solicitor

• If the injury was sustained by criminal or negligent action, for example in a car accident, then inform the police and request a criminal report number.

• Ensure you inform your insurance company if the injury was sustained in a vehicle accident.

• If you are injured at work make sure the details are entered into your employer’s accident book.

• Immediately inform your doctor even if you feel your injuries are slight. At some point in the proceedings you will be required to produce a medical report if the report doesn’t include details of the injuries you are claiming for your case will be severely weakened.

• Write everything down that you can remember about the accident and the events both before and after the accident. Make sure you have the names and addresses of potential witnesses and, if possible, take photographs of the scene and of your injuries. The more written material and photographic evidence you have to support your case the more chance you have of a successful outcome.

• Seek the advice of a specialist compensation claim expert. The easiest way to do this is to submit the details of your claim to us via the question box above. Our claims experts will send you a personal response within an hour and advise you of your next steps and there is no obligation.
