Accident Claims

CAN I CLAIM?

Many types of injury that you may have sustained can lead to a successful compensation claim. (This could be as a driver, passenger, pedestrian or because of an accident at work or a slip, trip or fall).

If you or a member of your family has been injured and someone (or something) else was responsible or partly responsible for your injuries then you may be entitled to compensation.

It is your legal right to claim compensation for injuries you have suffered as a result of someone else's fault.

OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU

We offer a dedicated first class service to all our Clients and try to make the process of claiming compensation as worry free as possible.

We pride ourselves on the personal service we offer our clients, which includes meeting all our clients in person.

We will be there for you every step of the way to answer any queries you have with regard to your claim and keep you informed at every stage of the process.

But taking Legal Action can be Expensive

There are various ways of funding your case. You may already have legal expenses cover through your household or motor insurers and this may meet the cost of pursuing your claim. Alternatively if you are a member of a Trade Union they may be prepared to fund your case.

If you do not have any of the above you can pay the legal costs yourself as the case progresses. However most of our clients prefer to fund the case by way of a Conditional Fee Agreement, often known as a "no win no fee" agreement.

No Win, No Fee

We can look at dealing with your personal injury cases under a Conditional Fee Agreement. This means that if you win your case you must pay our costs but you should be able to get the costs paid by your opponents. If you lose, you pay nothing.

We recommend that the agreement is backed by insurance and our Personal Injury Specialist will discuss this with you in more detail during your first appointment.

What next

We would be pleased to discuss any possible claim with you. If your claim has a reasonable chance of success we will be happy to represent you and we will guide you through the whole process.

We have offices in Devonport, Plymstock and Ivybridge and we are happy to see you at the office which is most convenient to you.

In the event that you cannot travel to one of our offices due to your injuries we may be able to visit you at home.
