Making a Claim With Our Team Of Solicitors For Newcastle-Under-Lyme
Once you’ve spoken to one of our dedicated advisors who will ascertain whether you have a valid case for compensation, to construct the foundations of your case, your claims solicitors will need to know:
- The date of your accident
- Details of how the accident happened
- Where the accident happened
- Details of the injuries you sustained
- Any medical diagnoses and treatment you received
- Whether or not you are a member of any trade unions (this could mean you are entitled to free legal representation)
Our personal injury solicitors might also need to look at:
- Documentary evidence of loss of any earnings and expenses that may have occurred due to the injury you have sustained.
- Documentation about any insurance cover you have, such as motor or household policies, that may cover the costs of your claim.
- Any other documents that could be used to strengthen your compensation case.
Once your personal injury solicitor for Newcastle-Under-Lyme have all this information, they can inform you of:
- How strong your claim is and how to claim.
- A rough estimate of how much your claim may be worth.
Your solicitor will also inform you about the processes involved when proceeding with your claim and will talk with you about how your case will be funded. Don’t be afraid to write all this down and ask any questions that you need answering. Our solicitors will be more than happy to put at rest any concerns you have.
Starting Your Claim
The first step your personal injury solicitor for Newcastle-Under-Lyme will take will be to send a claim letter to the defendant, the person who is allegedly responsible for your accident. This will set out the details of what injuries you have and the circumstances in which they happen.
The defendant will then have approximately three months to investigate and reply to the claim letter. Their reply should say whether they deny or accept responsibility. If they accept responsibility, your specialist solicitor shall then try to settle the matter out of court. The table below shows just some of the injuries that you could claim compensation for.
No Win No Fee AKA Conditional Fee Agreements
We take cases on a No Win No Fee basis. This is also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement. These were introduced in 1998 as a solution for those people who could not afford legal representation.
How Do They Work?
Essentially, you only pay for your solicitors work on the condition that your case is successful and you receive compensation. That means if your claim is unsuccessful, you won’t be charged a penny. That means there is no risk at all for you taking out a claim as you won’t be it with any bill should you lose. And so this protects your financial interests as you work with our personal injury solicitors for Newcastle-Under-Lyme.
What Are The Advantages of Entering Into a Conditional Fee Agreement?
- If the case is lost, you do not need to pay for any solicitors fees.
- If the case is won, you know exactly how much the fee you will be paying (an agreed percentage agreed before commencement of the case).
- Because your solicitor’s fee is based on a percentage of the claim, it is in their interest to get you the maximum amount of compensation.
