There are around three million personal
injuries each year in the UK and if someone or something other than the injured
party is to blame then compensation may be sought.
The injury might happen at work or in a car
and might even happen in a public place but the only essential point is to
prove negligence. Personal injury law can be complicated
for the layman and in nearly every claim you are better served by engaging a
solicitor experienced in this particular branch of law.
Nearly every solicitor will give their time
freely for the first visit to discuss your chances of making a claim but you
should gather as much evidence as possible to save time at this first meeting.
If the solicitor reckons you have a very good case he or she may offer a no win
no fee arrangement
A no win no fee Preston area of North West England might involve the services of
one of these specialist solicitors at Acsols.
In the vast majority of cases the
settlement is made without anyone having to go to court.
When you feel you have a claim then you
should gather a number of facts before seeing the solicitor for the first time
as this will save a lot of further time and effort.
The minimum detail will be an exact date
and time of the accident and the contact details of any witness. The precise
nature of any injury including diagnosis and the treatment received. You should
check your home and or car insurance as well as any insurance if you belong to
a Trades Union as they may cover all or some of your costs.
Any expenses that had to be made to and
from hospital for instance, as well as any loss of earnings must also be
presented. A no win no fee means precisely that and the solicitor will have
lost earnings because it was volunteered freely but if you win then his or her
fees will be deducted from the total award.
