This area covers claims for injuries arising from accidents where another party may be at fault, such as slips and trips, road traffic accidents, and other common injuries. A solicitor in England for common injuries investigates liability, collects medical evidence, liaises with insurers, and advances claims for compensation through negotiation or court action in the appropriate court, typically the County Court or the High Court, depending on the value and complexity. They advise on the evidence needed, potential remedies, and the steps toward settlement or litigation.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The time-limited nature of personal injury claims means the solicitor actively manages deadlines, gathers medical and loss of earnings evidence, and engages with insurers to negotiate settlement offers or pursue a court award for damages including pain and suffering, medical costs, and time off work.
