If your claim is successful  you keep 100% of your compensation

If your claim is unsuccessful it won't cost you a penny


Have you suffered an accident or injury in the last three years? You may be able to claim compensation. We offer free legal advice from UK solicitors who are specialists in personal injury cases and operate on a no win no fee basis. 

If you have been injured or have caught an illness or disease and someone else is responsible, you may be able to claim compensation.

This can include injury, illness or disease caused by a road accident, accident at work or medical accidents.

If a member of your family has died due to an accident you may also be able to claim for compensation. This is known as a "Fatal Accidents" claim.
 

If your opponent admits the accident was his or her fault, but does not agree with the amount you are claiming, you may be able to receive some money early. Your solicitor can apply for "Interim Payment".

This is where the opponent pays some money to you now and then the court decides how much more you should receive at a later date after more information has been obtained about what your case is worth.

An interim payment may help you pay for private hospital fees or special equipment that you require.

If you have an accident you must bring a claim within 3 years of the accident or the court has the power to refuse to allow you to claim for your injury. Exceptions to the 3 year rule are,

1. If you were under 18 when the accident happened. In this case the 3 years only starts to run from when you are 18.

2. At the time of the accident you did not know you had been injured or that your injury was caused by an accident, illness or disease, but you find out later. Even if this is years later, the three years may start to run from when you found out. Your solicitor will be able to tell you more.

You should try and see a solicitor as soon as possible after the accident, 3 years may seem a long time, but it isn’t. This is because it can often take 3 years just to prepare the case for trial. This may be because you have to wait for operations to see if your condition can be made better.

If your injury is going to give you problems in the future or it cannot be put right then you are likely to receive more in compensation than if your injury improves very quickly.
