Injury

Our personal injury lawyers provide free advice on pedestrian accident claim settlements. Claims are dealt with on a no win no fee basis and you are not required to finance your claim. Compensation is paid in in full without deduction. Win or lose there is no charge. Submit your details today and a member of the Law Society panel of personal injury specialists will respond to offer advice, without obligation, on the steps you should take to protect your legal rights.

Pedestrian accident claim solicitors are required to offer an independent and professional service which includes compulsory insurance, an independent complaints process and guaranteed confidentiality. Solicitors must act in their clients' interests, unless this conflicts with the duty to uphold justice. They must honour undertakings even if they are not legally enforceable and they must also handle their clients' money in separate, specified accounts.

There are formal institutions in place to protect clients: the Law Society Complaints Service examines unprofessional service, and the Compliance Directorate examines inadequate conduct. In cases of misconduct solicitors may have to appear before a Disciplinary Tribunal which may impose severe penalties. The Office for the Supervision of Solicitors can compensate clients in the event of unprofessional service or demand a reduced bill.

A pedestrian accident claim solicitor offers legal advice to clients, prepares documents, negotiates on their behalf and may represent them in court. Entering the legal profession is academcally difficult and even when qualified solicitors must undertake ongoing training in a programme of professional development and many opt to obtain professional accreditation in the field in which they choose to specialise. To obtain membership of the Law Society panel of personal injury specialists a detailed questionnaire must be submitted outlining that stringent training has been undertaken, that appropriate experience has been obtained and that the firm the lawyer works for complies with numerous professional requirements. Potential members must demonstrate competence in the field and will only be selected by expert assessors on the grounds that they are deserving of this prestigious accreditation. Members will display detailed knowledge of:

• Road Traffic Acts
• Common Law of Negligence
• Occupiers Liability Act
• Contributory Negligence
• Civil Evidence Acts
• Vicarious Liability
• Motor Insurance Bureau
• Employers Liability
• Consumer Protection Act
• Health and Safety at Work Act
• Fatal Accident Act 1976
• European Community legislation

If you have been injured in an accident within the last three years, do yourself justice and complete the contact form and we will immediately put you in touch with a specialist solicitor. If after talking to that solicitor you decide to proceed no further you will not be charged for any advice.
