Personal Injury Solicitors

In most personal injury cases, no, you won’t need to go to Court.
The majority of claims settle early because the person responsible accepts liability and agrees compensation without a hearing.

However, if your claim is denied, things can become more formal and Court proceedings may be needed. If that happens, our personal injury solicitors will guide you through every step and fight to secure the compensation you deserve.

You may have a valid claim if:

• The accident was caused by someone else’s negligence or failure to take reasonable care

• You suffered physical or psychological injury as a result

• The incident happened within the legal claim timeframe (usually three years)

Common examples include being hit by another driver, slipping in a supermarket, being injured due to unsafe working conditions, or suffering harm because of improper medical treatment. If you’re unsure, our solicitors can assess your case quickly and let you know where you stand.

While every case is different, useful evidence may include:

• Photographs of the accident scene or your injuries

• Accident reports (workplace, supermarket, gym, etc.)

• CCTV or dashcam footage

• Witness details and statements

• Medical records and treatment information

• Proof of financial losses (payslips, receipts, care invoices)

• Correspondence with insurers, employers or organisations involved

If you don’t have all this information, don’t worry. We will help gather evidence on your behalf and build a strong case.

Compensation varies depending on:

• The type and severity of your injury

• How long your recovery takes

• Whether you’ve lost income or required time off work

• Any ongoing care or rehabilitation needs

• Long-term impact on your quality of life

• Additional financial losses or expenses

Your claim will usually include general damages (for pain and suffering) and special damages (your financial losses), ensuring the full impact of your injury is reflected.

For straightforward injuries, such as slips, trips or falls, many claims are completed within around 12-18 months.

More complex injuries, higher compensation values or disputes about liability can extend the process. If your case takes longer, we may be able to secure interim payments to help support you while your claim is ongoing.

We proudly offer our clients a Conditional Fee Agreement, commonly known as a ‘No Win No Fee’ agreement, but we apply it with professional diligence to ensure the best outcome for all parties.

We offer this arrangement in the vast majority of personal injury cases. Each case is carefully assessed on its individual merits.

After reviewing the details of your claim, we’ll determine the likelihood of success. If we believe your case has a strong chance of winning, we’ll proceed on a No Win No Fee basis, giving you peace of mind as to protection from financial risk.

If a claim does not meet our threshold for success, we will advise you honestly, ensuring you only pursue cases with a realistic chance of compensation.
