ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES

If you have had an accident and it was someone else's fault, you may be able to claim compensation. If the accident was more than three years ago, you may be too late, but you may still be able to make a claim. However, if you were under the age of 18 when it occurred, then you have three years from the age of 18 to make your claim.

Pick up the telephone to discuss the matter as soon as possible. Alternatively, complete and submit our Accident Form and we will contact you to discuss your accident and help you decide whether or not to proceed with a claim.

We provide a specialist and personal service, which we believe is safer than that of a claims company who often employ legally unqualified staff.

TYPES OF ACCIDENTS

Road traffic accidents - You may be able to claim for a road traffic injury, whether you were a driver, pedestrian or passenger. We also have specialists in motorcycle and bicycle accidents.

Accidents at work - These may occur as a result of operating machinery, on building sites, lifting, repetitive activities or slipping. Damages for occupational diseases such as asthma, dermatitis and hearing problems can also be claimed for.

Tripping or slipping - It is usually the council's responsibility to maintain pavements and highways safely. Claims may also be made against shops for such accidents.

Faulty products - You can claim for injuries as a result of a faulty or badly designed product. For example, toys, ladders or equipment causing injury.

Criminal injuries - You can claim for injuries as a result of a criminal act.
