Personal Injury
If you’ve suffered a personal injury or been made ill, you may be entitled to compensation. It doesn’t matter whether you were in the UK or abroad, at work or in a public place, our personal injury solicitors are here to help.
Everyone is entitled to go about their everyday life in safety. Unfortunately, the fact is that every year tens of thousands of people in the UK are injured or made ill by the carelessness or negligence of others. When an incident occurs, which causes you to be injured or become ill, due to someone else’s carelessness or negligence, you may be able to claim compensation.
A personal injury isn’t always visible like a bruise or a broken bone; the words ‘personal injury’ describes many different types of harm that can befall you in your daily life.
Our highly experienced team of lawyers assist clients to navigate the constantly evolving areas of UK immigration law.
Personal injuries can happen in many different unexpected ways. Regardless of how or where you have been injured through someone else’s negligence, we’re here to help you through it.
While you may think that making a compensation claim is a time-consuming and complicated process, our friendly and professional legal team deliver a thorough yet prompt service. We work closely with a network of medical and rehabilitative experts, going that extra mile to help you receive the legal and medical support you need.
You normally have three years to start your personal injury claim. This time limit is usually from the date of your accident. However, in some cases it can be from the date you became aware your injury was due to negligence (in the case of a workplace illness for instance). There are exceptions to the three-year rule – and sometimes the time limit is shorter. If you think you might have a claim, it’s important to contact us as soon as possible.
Some of the common types of personal injury we help people claim for include:
- Medical negligence (including misdiagnosis, surgery, and GP negligence)
- Serious injury (including traumatic brain and spinal injuries)
- Road traffic accidents (including pedestrian, cyclist and passenger accidents)
- Accidents or illness abroad (including holiday accidents and food poisoning)
- Accidents at work (including back, head and manual handling injuries)
- Industrial diseases (including hearing loss and respiratory problems)
- Asbestos related diseases (including mesothelioma)
- Accidents in public places (including claims against the council and slips, trips and falls)
- Accidents or illness in Scotland (including road accidents, serious injuries and industrial diseases)
Whatever caused your injury, we can advise you on your claim and what you are entitled to.
Compensation is only part of the story though, and our solicitors could also help you access the rehabilitation, medical care and support you need to make the best recovery possible.
With the UK’s leading personal injury solicitors on your side, you can claim the compensation you deserve.
