The most common claim in a personal injury case is negligence and the time limit for this is 3 years. This means that court proceedings must be initiated within 3 years from the date you first learned that you have suffered an injury. We have a team of specialists that deals specifically with traffic accidents. If you were the driver, passenger, cyclist, motorcyclist, or pedestrian and the accident wasn't your fault, we'll help you receive the fairest result and compensation possible.
The amount of compensation is usually directly proportional to the magnitude of the injury suffered by the stalker. This generally means that the more serious your injury, the greater the amount of compensation you would expect to receive. For example, soft tissue damage would not receive the same level of compensation as severe brain damage. Your personal injury lawyer will calculate an approximate figure based on two factors: the severity of the injury and any mental and emotional repercussions of the injury.
Thompsons Solicitors has a long history of winning personal injury claims, with more than 100 years of experience representing injured people. Thompsons Solicitors insures hundreds of millions of pounds in personal injury compensation for their clients every year. There are several different forms of personal injury actions ranging from traffic accidents to medical negligence. The difficult thing about injuries to the arms, hands, or wrists is that it can be difficult to estimate the potential losses a person may suffer after being injured in these areas.
Other personal injury law firms are likely to charge a 25% commission, in addition to insurance fees, as well as unrecovered fees and disbursements. If you want to take legal action for a personal injury, you should consult an attorney who is a member of the personal injury accreditation system or the Bar Association's clinical negligence accreditation system, depending on the nature of the injury. The Personal Injury Lawyers Association (APIL) is a nonprofit association of attorneys, attorneys, and academics specializing in personal injury. You must be 18 years of age or older to file a claim, but a friend or family member of that age can also initiate a personal injury claim on behalf of a minor.
Personal injuries range from cuts and broken bones to serious injuries that can change lives, and can also be fatal. When you file a personal injury claim, one of the most important things you'll want to know is how much compensation I can claim, and to get a good idea, it helps to know how compensation is calculated. If you are partly at fault for your accident, you may still be able to recover compensation for personal injury, although it will be less than what you would have if you were not at fault. If you, or a loved one, have suffered an injury or illness as a result of someone else's negligence in the past three years, contact Thompsons Solicitors today for advice and to begin your personal injury compensation claim.
