Personal Injury FAQs

How long do I have to make a personal injury claim?

Generally, you have three years from the date of your accident or from when you first became aware your injury was related to someone’s negligence. There are important exceptions to this timeframe, particularly for children or those lacking mental capacity. We recommend contacting us as soon as possible to ensure your claim isn’t time-barred. 

How much will it cost to pursue my claim?

We typically handle personal injury claims on a “No Win, No Fee” basis (Conditional Fee Agreement). This means you won’t pay legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful. If you win, most costs are recovered from the other side, with a small contribution from your compensation to cover certain expenses. We’ll explain all financial arrangements clearly before proceeding. 

What compensation might I receive?

Compensation is calculated based on two main elements: general damages (for pain, suffering, and impact on life quality) and special damages (financial losses including medical expenses, lost earnings, and future care costs). Each case is unique, but we’ll provide realistic estimates based on relevant guidelines and our extensive experience with similar claims. 

Will I need a medical examination?

Yes, an independent medical expert will need to examine you and provide a report on your injuries. This crucial evidence helps establish the extent of your injuries and their impact on your life, forming the foundation of your compensation claim. 

How involved will I need to be in the process?

While we handle the legal complexities, your input remains essential. You’ll need to provide accurate information about your accident and injuries, attend medical examinations, and review documents. We aim to make this process as straightforward as possible, keeping disruption to your recovery minimal. 

What if the person who caused my injury doesn't have insurance?

We can still pursue compensation through alternative routes. For road accidents, claims can be made through the Motor Insurers’ Bureau. For workplace injuries, employers are legally required to have liability insurance. For public liability cases, we’ll explore all possible avenues for compensation.
