Personal Injury Solicitors - Accident Compensation Claims
Beckett & Co Solicitors - specialist personal injury solicitors
Starting a personal injury claim can seem like a difficult process. In reality, if you choose a good personal injury solicitor to handle your claim the process will run smoothly. There are, however, some things that you can do to help your claim be successful.
We have listed 12 things that you should know before you start your claim.
Have you ever received a compensation claim text message? These days it seems that just about anyone with a mobile phone has, at some time, received such a message. Why do you receive these messages? Should you respond? Could it be genuine?
Will I have to provide my opponents with copies of my medical records if I make a personal injury claim?
The short answer is: maybe. It will depend upon the circumstances of the case and the type of injury sustained.
Before the question can be answered, it is important to understand why medical evidence is important in a claim for personal injury compensation.
The small claims limit for personal injury claims is currently set at £1000. Most trivial and short-lived injuries fall in this bracket. However, the Government is again considering raising the court small claims limit from £1000 to £5000. The proposed increase will affect all personal injury claims. What would this mean for injured Claimants?
Highway tripping accidents are one of the most common causes of a tripping accident claim.
In a highway tripping claim photographs are often very important evidence. Why? Because it is necessary for the Claimant to prove that, at the time of the accident, the highway was in a dangerous condition. However, the lack of measurement photographs does not mean that a claim will fail.
