FAQs

What is a personal injury claim?

A personal injury claim seeks compensation for physical or psychological harm caused by someone else’s negligence, such as in a car accident or workplace incident.

How do I know if I have a valid claim?

To have a valid claim, you must demonstrate that another party was responsible for your injury. Our barristers can assess the details of your case and advise you on its prospects.

How long do I have to make a personal injury claim?

You typically have three years from the date of the injury to file a claim, though there are exceptions for certain cases, such as those involving children or individuals lacking mental capacity.

How long does the claims process take?

The timeline depends on the complexity of the case and whether the opposing party disputes liability. Simple cases may resolve in a few months, while more complex claims can take longer.

How much will it cost to pursue a claim?

Costs depend on the complexity of your case. We will provide clear, upfront quotes and ensure you understand all fees involved.
