Practice Area 01

Personal Injury

We fight insurance companies so you can focus on your recovery.

Personal injury claims are rarely as straightforward as insurers want you to believe. They have specialists working to minimise your payout from day one. We provide the same level of expertise on your side, with no fee unless we win.

What We Handle

Personal Injury Services

Every matter within personal injury has its own nuances. Our work in this area covers the full range of situations our clients face.

Road Traffic Accidents

Whiplash, serious collision, and hit-and-run claims. We handle disputes with insurers and untraced driver fund applications.

Workplace Injuries

Accidents caused by unsafe practices, inadequate training, or defective equipment. Your employer has a duty of care. We enforce it.

Slip, Trip & Fall

Public and private liability claims where a property owner's negligence caused your injury. We gather evidence quickly before it disappears.

Clinical Negligence

Medical errors, misdiagnosis, and surgical complications. We work with independent medical experts to establish breach of duty.

Product Liability

Injuries caused by defective consumer products, machinery, or pharmaceutical products. We trace liability up the supply chain.

Cycling Accidents

Vulnerable road user claims involving serious injury. We pursue full compensation including future loss of earnings and rehabilitation costs.

Our Approach

How We Work

We do not believe in vague promises. Every matter follows a clear process from first contact to final resolution and you are kept informed throughout in plain English.

FAQ

Common Questions

Questions we hear regularly. If yours isn't listed here, the first call is free.

What does no win, no fee actually mean?

It means you pay us nothing unless your claim is successful. If we win, our fee is deducted from your compensation as a success fee, capped by law at 25% of your award. If we lose, you owe us nothing. We explain all of this clearly before we agree to take your case.

How long will my claim take?

Straightforward road traffic accident claims with admitted liability can resolve within 6–12 months. More complex cases involving disputed liability or serious injury typically take 18–36 months. We give you a realistic timeframe at the outset and keep you updated throughout.

What if I was partly at fault?

Contributory negligence reduces your award but doesn't necessarily bar it. If you were 25% at fault, you receive 75% of the assessed value of your claim. We advise on the full picture, including how any shared fault might affect your outcome.

What compensation can I claim?

You can claim for pain and suffering, loss of earnings past and future, medical expenses, care costs, travel expenses, and any other financial loss flowing directly from your injury. We assess every head of loss and claim for all of them.

What if the other driver was uninsured?

Claims against uninsured drivers are made through the Motor Insurers' Bureau (MIB). We handle MIB claims regularly and the process, while more complex, can still result in full compensation. You should not assume an uninsured driver means no recovery.
