Law firms ranked by client reviews
Highways Act claims cover injuries and losses arising from defects or dangers on public roads and footpaths. A solicitor in this area pursues liability under the Highways Act 1980, often alongside negligence arguments, against local highway authorities or other responsible bodies. They will gather incident and medical evidence, instruct experts, draft and issue the claim, negotiate settlements, and manage court or tribunal proceedings if necessary. The work is defined by the interaction between road maintenance duties and personal injury rights, and the aim is to secure appropriate compensation for harm caused by a defective highway.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The matters revolve around a crucial decision or deadline: pursuing a road safety or fault claim against a public body, where liability hinges on evidence of a hazard and timely action. A solicitor coordinates medical reports, investigation of maintenance records, and any appeals if needed, ensuring that the client’s position is protected through the process and potentially through court intervention if a fair settlement cannot be reached.
