   PERSONAL INJURY & CLINICAL NEGLIGENCE

If you have been injured or bereaved and someone else is partly or wholly to blame, you may be able to claim compensation. Our team of specialists are always happy to meet with you for an initial free interview to assess whether there may be a basis for bringing a claim and to advise you on how the case may be funded. We get results from hard work and attention to detail that is second to none.

You can only generally obtain compensation if the accident has happened within the last three years. Therefore, you should always act quickly. Telephone or email us for an appointment.

Our solicitors offer specialist expertise in, amongst others, the following areas:

• Road traffic accident cases

• Actions against the Police

• Work accident cases

• Tripping, slipping and falling cases

• Clinical negligence claims

The value of claims dealt with by the firm varies from �1,000 for minor claims to over a million pounds for catastrophic injuries.
