We Can Help Secure The Compensation You Deserve
If you've been injured and the incident was someone else's fault, you could be entitled to compensation for your injuries. You may feel as though you don't know where to begin, but we can help you establish the facts and advise whether or not you're likely to succeed in a claim for compensation.
Our specialists have the expertise you need on your side in such a difficult situation. They will work with you and make every step of the process as simple as possible and give you the best possible chance of receiving compensation for your injuries.
The Costs Of Making A Personal Injury Claim
As our clients are our number one priority, we want to take away the financial burden that can arise so you can focus on making a full recovery, without having to worry about fees to pay or how much of your compensation will be deducted by your lawyer.
Injuries aside, the issues that worry the majority of innocent injured and incapacitated people the most are: ‘What will it cost me to bring a personal injury claim? What will my solicitor charge me? Will my solicitor deduct a fee from my compensation?’
As with most solicitors, we provide a "no-win no-fee" service, so if you were to lose your claim you do not pay us a fee. If you win your case our fees are paid by the at-fault party utilising the fee rates that the Courts and Government set as reasonable charges for the work which we do for you.
Unlike most solicitors, if you win, we do not charge you a success fee of up to 25% of the value of your claim, to pay claims management companies and marketing fees. We don’t incur any claims management marketing fees. We operate on our own reputation and pass the resultant financial benefits back to our clients.
That is how our Personal Injury no success fee deductions service works – 100% compensation 100% of the time.
What Injuries Can You Claim For?
At Valerie Holmes Law, we handle various personal injury claims. The following are some of the more common types of incidents that could lead to a compensation claim:
- Road Traffic Accidents – Whether in a car, motorcycle or any other type of vehicle, you may be entitled to compensation. The accident could involve any other vehicle, including those driven by an uninsured or untraced driver.
- Cycling Accidents – If you were cycling and were hit by another road user, such as a motorist, you may be entitled to claim compensation against them for your injuries.
- Workplace Accidents – You may have been injured at work, either alone or along with other colleagues. Your employer has a duty of care to ensure that you are able to carry out your work safely and should follow certain procedures in the event of a workplace accident.
- Slips, Trips and Falls – This could include a park or other public space, such as a shop, a shopping centre, a restaurant, a leisure facility, or an entertainment venue.
