If you are unsure whether you have grounds for an accident claim, we offer a free and confidential initial call to understand what happened.
There is no obligation to proceed. The call is simply an opportunity to ask questions and understand your options.
During this conversation, we will:
We assist people who have been injured because of someone else’s actions or failures, including:
We support both people who were directly injured and those who have suffered serious psychological harm after witnessing or being closely involved in a traumatic event affecting someone close to them. In these cases, the law requires a recognised medical condition, which we can discuss with you in clear terms.
If you have lost someone in an accident, we can advise you sensitively on what claims may be available and guide you through the process at a pace that feels right for you. Or if your enquiry relates to medical treatment, misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis, click here to read more about making a Medical Negligence claim.
Making a claim can feel unfamiliar, particularly if you are recovering from an injury or supporting someone close to you. Our role is to manage the legal process so that you know what to expect at each stage.
We begin by understanding what happened and how it has affected you or your family.
We collect the information needed to support the claim, including disclosure documents, photographs, videos, medical records and other relevant documents.
Our injury lawyers assess how the event has affected you physically, emotionally, and financially. We also instruct top medical experts to examine and report to assist us in assessing the value of your claim.
We handle communication and negotiation with insurers or those responsible, removing the burden from you during this stressful time.
Most claims settle without going to court. If a hearing is required, we prepare you carefully and support you throughout, so that you’re always aware of what comes next.
Our personal injury team mainly work as No Win No Fee solicitors. In practical terms, this means:

Compensation varies depending on your case. This can range from loss of earnings as a result of your personal injury, travel expenses, professional care costs, and payment for emotional or psychological harm. Our No Win No Fee solicitors provide clear and realistic advice as to what you can expect upon the resolution of your case.
Usually, the injured person brings the claim. In some cases, a parent, close family member, or personal representative may act on behalf of a child, someone who cannot manage their own affairs, or following a fatal accident.
If you have suffered serious psychological harm after being directly involved in, or closely witnessing, a traumatic event, you may still have a claim. This normally requires a recognised medical condition, which we can discuss with you.
In most cases, there is a three-year time limit from the date of the accident. Different rules apply for children and fatal cases, which we can explain.
Most claims settle without a court hearing. If a hearing is necessary, our personal injury lawyers will guide you through the process.
The length of a claim depends on the circumstances and whether responsibility is accepted. Once we have reviewed the details, we will give you a realistic indication of timescales.
If you would like to understand whether there may be a claim, whether for yourself or on behalf of someone close to you, start with a free 15-minute exploratory call with a member of our experienced team. We will listen carefully, explain your options clearly, and help you decide what to do next.
Our Injury Services team understand that for many clients, their accident can be the start of one of the most traumatic and difficult periods of their life that can impact significantly on them, their family and their work. We can guide you through the process of reviewing your claim, securing private medical treatment and rehabilitation wherever needed and to recover the compensation you are entitled to.
