Slipped on Loose Ground, Paving Slabs, Cobblestones or Broken Concrete

broken kerb compensation claimsWhen injured in the street, most people are the victim of a trip or fall accident caused by defective paving or potholes. But slipping accidents can be equally as dangerous, caused by the same sorts of defects.

You could slip on the edge of a pothole, or slip on broken and crumbled concrete around a defect. A loose paving slab or cobble stone could move and cause you to slip.

The law is generally the same; as long as the defect was the cause of the injury, you may have a valid slip, tip or fall injury claim for compensation. In fact, slipping accidents can sometimes be worse if you twist your knee or your back. You could easily cause serious ligament damage even if you don’t end up falling to the ground.

How to Compare Personal Injury Lawyers – Who is the Best?

how to compare personal injury lawyersIf you’d have asked me this 12 months ago, I would have explained to you that it’s all about making sure your solicitor goes the extra mile when it comes to the service that they offer. But since the government changed the law in April 2013, it’s now more of a case of which lawyers is the cheapest!

Nowadays it’s somewhat of a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow to find a lawyer prepared to find your claim on the basis that you keep all 100% of your compensation if you win. This is because our government decided that victims of negligence should have to pay to claim when they stopped lawyers being able to recover all of their fees from the other side.

The Injury Lawyers 100% Compensation Offer

our clients receive 100% compensationJanuary – always a bit of a tight month after the big spend over Christmas and blowing a load more money in the after-Christmas sales!

So here’s something to cheer you up – if you have had an accident and you have been thinking of making a claim, you may already be aware that last year there were loads of changes brought in by the government which have stopped lawyers being able to offer 100% compensation agreements.

The law changes have stopped solicitors recovering something called a Success Fee and an After The Event insurance premium from the opponent. We can still recover our other fees so we don’t have to charge you!
