Druitts Personal Injury solicitors Bournemouth understand accidents happen every day in all sorts of different situations, at work, at home, on holiday, when travelling.
They can have a traumatic effect on people's lives in terms of both physical injury and resulting financial problems if someone is unable to work following an accident.
TV adverts offering a compensation recovery service may at first sight seem an attractive and easy choice, but they may result in you being represented by a solicitor who is miles away and who you therefore never see and find it difficult to contact. This can be frustrating at a time when you are already experiencing difficulties.
At Druitts Personal Injury Solicitors Bournemouth we offer:
A personal local service tailored to your needs.
Regular personal contact and updates
A no win no fee scheme
A free initial interview to assess your claim
Home and hospital visits
If you have been involved in any type of accident within the last 3 years or were involved in an accident more than 3 years ago at a time when you were under the age of 18 or lacking mental capacity then you may be entitled to make a claim even if it was partly your fault.
If you would like to discuss your situation then please contact Kay Donalson by email or telephone her on 01202 551 863.
Frequently Asked Questions
If you have suffered injury, illness or disease in the last 3 years which is not your fault, then you may be entitled to claim.
You must be over 18 to claim, but you can start a claim on behalf of a child too.
The amount you may be awarded is decided by a number of factors. This includes the severity of the injury, the pain and suffering that you have experienced, the impact of the injuries on your life and work, any medical expenses incurred and how the injuries will affect your future life. Your claim should also include past and future financial losses and expenses. The amount you receive is relative to your specific situation and personal to you.
There is never a definite answer, it depends on the injury and the severity. On average it takes between 1-2 years for a case to settle. You can be confident our personal injury solicitor will be working to resolve the case as soon as possible and keep you updated during the process.
A No Win No Fee agreement (or a Conditional Fee Agreement) is an agreement which protects you against having to pay legal fees if you lose your case. These are usually in the form of an insurance policy which is taken out on your behalf before the case begins to cover any costs during the compensation claim.
If you are successful with your claim, we will deduct a success fee from your compensation. The value of the success fee is case dependent and agreed in advance.
It is always advisable to use a qualified solicitor for any legal work. However, it is completely up to you if you decide you would like legal representation. Our expert personal injury solicitor has been making successful compensation claims for many years and is aware of what you should be claiming. You may receive more compensation if you use a specialist personal injury solicitor as opposed to representing yourself.
Very few cases go to court. If you case does go to court our personal injury solicitor will support and advise you on all the necessary steps.
