Questions
What types of personal injury claims do you handle?
We specialise in work accidents, road traffic injuries, serious trauma, clinical negligence, and agricultural accidents. Our experience covers all personal injury cases from minor injuries to catastrophic claims requiring lifetime care funding.
How does the no win no fee system work?
If your claim fails, you pay nothing. We only take a success fee from your compensation if we win, capped at 25% as required by law. This ensures access to justice without financial risk.
What compensation can I claim for a workplace injury?
You can claim for pain and suffering, medical expenses, lost earnings, care costs, and necessary home or vehicle adaptations. We also recover future losses projected over your lifetime.
How long do I have to make a claim?
Most personal injury claims have a 3-year time limit from the accident date. For children, the period starts when they turn 18. We recommend contacting us immediately to ensure evidence preservation.
Will making a claim affect my job?
No. Employers cannot legally retaliate against injury claims. Most claims are handled through employers' liability insurance without direct employer involvement in your workplace.

The decision reached in settlement of my claim was the right decision. It was the principal as my opponent never even apologised for the accident. I have always been happy with the service you provide and recommended over the years the company to many people. This company goes the extra mile. thanks helen and Rogen.
