Paragon Point, Paragon Business Village, Wakefield WF1 2DF
Senior employment lawyer handling senior executive contracts, high-value claims and commercial agency matters for businesses and individuals.
Most personal injury solicitors work on a 'no win, no fee' basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and a success fee (capped by law) is deducted from your compensation only if the claim succeeds. Ask any solicitor to confirm this arrangement in writing before you sign anything.
In most cases, you have three years from the date of the accident (or from when you became aware of the injury) to start a claim in England and Wales. Some exceptions apply, particularly for claims involving children or certain workplace exposures, so it's worth checking your specific situation early.
The large majority of personal injury claims are settled through negotiation between solicitors and insurers without a court hearing. Court is typically only needed when liability or the compensation amount is seriously disputed.
Bring any accident report, photos of injuries or the scene, medical records or GP letters, witness contact details, and evidence of any financial losses such as time off work. The more documentation you have, the faster a solicitor can assess your claim's strength.
