Top Tip! Solicitors can get up to four times more!

So you have a whiplash claim and you have rejected or countered the first offer from the insurers, and now you have a new offer that (I hope!) is better than the first one. Should you accept it?

An insurer can make an offer at anytime during a claim, and it is the important role of your solicitor to correctly advise you as to whether an offer from the other side should be accepted or rejected. So it all depends on the amount of the offer – read on for more info.

110% Compensation with The Injury Lawyers!

April 2013 saw a lot of government legal reforms which have rocked the personal injury claiming world to its very core, and largely left the victims more worse off than they have ever been in the history of injury claims. We’ve known its coming for a while, and the government have caved to pressures from the multi-billion pound insurance industry to reduce the burden of legal costs to the defending parties.

But compensation in general has been increased by 10% to offset the changes victims are now suffering from – so here is an insight in to the overall picture of what’s happened.

Council claims can be risky – and thanks to government law changes that happened in April 2013, lawyers are not allowed to recover the same level of fees we used to be able to.

But we can still offer you a 100% compensation agreement for a council claim. So read on for more info!

100% compensation for medical negligence claims

When we feel we have a medical problem, our first point of call is, rightly so, our GP. You’d expect to be able to visit your GP and either get the reassurance and advice that you have nothing to worry about and your problem can be easily resolved, or you’d expect a referral to an expert.

We all know that the NHS is stretched, and the waiting times to see GP’s are long; but what we don’t expect is to be let down by our GP’s resulting in further complications or unnecessary suffering.

So what happens if your GP fails to take proper action, fails to refer you, or fails to properly diagnose you for a long period of time? Do you have any rights if this causes further unnecessary suffering?
