What criteria do you need to meet for one of our excellent personal injury solicitors to take on your personal injury case?

What Criteria Do I Need To Meet To Be Eligible To Claim Compensation?

If you wish to make a personal injury claim for compensation, your personal injury lawyer will need to provide evidence to support your claim. In a personal injury case, the person making a claim will be referred to as the Claimant, whilst the person or organisation you are suing is called the Defendant.

Your personal injury lawyer must be able to prove the following:

1. Your solicitor must be able to prove that you, the Defendant owed you the Claimant a “duty of care”, meaning that they were responsible for upholding your health and safety. For example, according to laws such as The Occupiers Liability Act of 1957 and the Health And Safety At Work Act of 1974, an employer is responsible for providing staff with a safe and hygienic working environment, or shopkeepers are responsible for providing customers with a hazard-free experience whilst shopping on their premises.
2. Your solicitor will then have to provide evidence that the Defendant was negligent, leading to an avoidable accident. Legally This means that if the responsible party does not uphold their duty of care, they could be held legally liable for the Claimant’s injuries.
3. Thirdly, your personal injury solicitor will have to prove that the accident caused by the Defendant’s negligence caused you to suffer injuries or an illness as a result.

If you have been involved in a personal injury case in Dover or elsewhere, which matches the description above, you could be entitled to make a personal injury claim for compensation. Call Legal Expert today to see if our personal injury solicitors covering Dover can help you claim compensation.

Why Is It Worth Considering Personal Injury Solicitors For Dover Injury Claims?

Although it may cost money to use a personal injury solicitor, it really is worth every penny. Many people believe they can claim an adequate amount of compensation for their injuries without using a personal injury lawyer. Without the right lawyer representing your case, the defendant will likely dismiss your claim or “lowball” you (intentionally offering you a compensation package that is too low to avoid paying you what you are actually owed in the future). Not only is it essential that you use a specialist personal injury solicitor to represent you in your claim, but you must also do your research to make sure that they are the best personal injury lawyer to represent your claim.

You should ensure that the personal injury solicitor that you use has a good track record of winning claims like yours. You may also wish to consider their rates and whether or not they offer a No Win No Fee service to make claiming personal injury compensation more affordable. Below is some advice on what to consider when finding the best personal injury lawyer to help you on how to claim compensation.

Does My Personal Injury Solicitor Have To Be Local?

Some people may wonder whether they need to search for personal injury solicitors in Dover or nearby if they live in this town. This is not required though, since many personal injury solicitors including our own can support claimants across the country. You can easily communicate with our advisors and No Win No Fee solicitors if you’re in Dover via email, phone calls, video calls or by other means if required.

One instance where you may require a local service is if the solicitor supporting your case arranges for you to have a medical assessment as part of your evidence. This assessment will likely take place in a medical centre in or near Dover that’s convenient for you to travel to. Also, if your personal injury claim ends up going to court, then the case may be heard at one of the civil courts that’s nearest to Dover.
