Can I make a personal injury claim?

Anyone who has been injured as a result of another person’s negligence can make a personal injury claim.

There are several reasons why you should make a claim: to satisfy your need for justice, to gain compensation to help you get back on your feet, to obtain treatment quicker, to claim financial losses or to change the way in which the responsible party acts.

Being injured can be very costly to you and your family. We are here to help you claim damages not only for your injuries, but for any financial losses that you have incurred or may incur in the future as a result of the injuries you have sustained. Examples of these losses may be loss of earnings, loss of pension, care and assistance, adaptations to your home, travel expenses, private treatment costs, medication costs or insurance excess.

All claims are dealt with on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis, meaning that if you lose your claim, you do not pay any costs. You really have nothing to lose in making a claim and getting the justice you rightfully deserve.

What evidence should I gather for my personal injury claim?

Once you have had an accident and you are faced with the pain of an injury, gathering evidence about the event may be the last thing on your mind. However, to make a personal injury claim, gathering evidence can be the difference between a large amount of compensation, and a small amount. Here is a list of evidence you can gather to make your accident claim case as strong as possible:

Record where the accident happened – Make a note of the location, date and time the injury took place. These details could otherwise become unclear with the passage of time.

Take photographs of your injuries – You should take photographs of your injuries including any bruising, abrasions, lacerations or contusions to your body. You should also take photos of your clothes if they were torn or bloodied.

Take photographs of the incident scene – Pictures of the incident scene are also vital. They must show the cause of the accident if at all possible. So if you tripped on a dislodged paving stone, this should be shown in a picture as evidence. Include defect measurements and pictures of the surrounding scene where applicable.

If the accident occurred at a commercial property such as a shop or workplace – You should report the incident in an accident book. If the property owner does not have an accident book, you should send details to them about the accident via email.

Take the names and addresses of witnesses if at all possible – Witness statements can be invaluable in personal injury cases.

If it was a road accident – Make a note of the insurance details of any other driver who was involved.

Police reports can also be invaluable – If your accident is serious enough for police to attend the scene, record the name of the reporting officer and the police instant reference or ‘CAD’ number. You may need to contact them in the future.

WHAT OUR

clients say

Excellent Company. I was the victim of a hit & run last year, contacted Oliver & Co to aid me in my claim (police could not find the driver) They looked at the case and claimed from the MIB. Case is now settled thanks to them, would definitely recommend them to everyone out there if you require a solicitor for any reason.

My first contact with Allison was from hospital following a serious road accident. She has been with me at each step of my recovery – visiting me at home; arranging my rehabilitation; ensuring for correct and prompt medical interventions; liaising with my employers, medical professionals, rehabilitation case management specialists, and a variety of consultants; scouring medical and police reports, etc. – all the time building and delivering a successful personal injury claim for me.
Allison has been a constant source of kindness, help and support throughout a time in my life that has been hugely challenging; checking in on me to make sure I’m ok and to see how my rehab / return to work etc. was going. I have been so lucky to have Allison in my corner. Communication throughout has been excellent. Allison and Rebecca have kept me in touch with each step of the process and explained everything clearly, which made the whole experience very straightforward for me. At a time when a lot was going on in my life, this was really important and enabled me to focus on my recovery and family matters, secure in the knowledge that everything else was being taken care of.
If you are considering using Oliver & Co Solicitors Ltd. I would say definitely do! I can absolutely recommend them.

I am happy to recommend Kathryn Bull 100% to anyone who needs help, support and advice with regards a personal accident claim. From the beginning she put me at my ease at what was a worrying time for me. Kathryn’s professional and friendly manner always shone through. She was always at the end of the telephone when needed and always kept me up to date at each stage during the claim process. I like to thank Kathryn and the team for all your help.
