Frequently Asked Questions
How long do I have to make a personal injury claim?
In most cases, you have three years from the date of the accident, although there are exceptions for children and those lacking capacity.
How long does a claim take?
Simple claims may settle in a few months, while complex or serious injury claims can take longer depending on medical evidence and negotiations.
Do I need to go to court?
Most personal injury cases settle through negotiation. Court is only required if liability is disputed or settlement cannot be agreed.
What evidence do I need?
We help gather accident reports, photographs, witness statements, medical records, and expert assessments to support your claim.
Can I claim if the accident was partly my fault?
Possibly. Compensation may be reduced, but you may still have a valid claim. We can advise based on the circumstances.
Do you act for children?
Yes. Claims for children are handled with added care and are subject to court approval to ensure fairness.
