WHEN CASH CAN EASE THE PAIN

One of the most frequent tasks in any law firm is claims on behalf of clients for personal injury compensation.

According to the Law Society’s own figures around three million claims are processed every year and this includes everything from traffic accidents where a third party is at fault to accidents at work or home.

For personal injury solicitors Blackburn the firm Acsols have a particularly good record of assessing the chances of a claim and getting a good settlement. This is definitely one area of law that you should not attempt yourself.

The experienced solicitor will have a pretty shrewd idea of what the compensation should amount to and strive to get that. An individual attempting to go it alone will certainly be short changed as all insurance companies try to pay as little as possible.

Despite personal injury law being quite complicated a good personal injury solicitor will assess each case as it stands and with all the information at hand will not have to bother the claimant too much.

The initial meeting will be free but it saves an awful lot of time and bother if you arrive with some basic facts in order for the solicitor to reach the conclusion of whether it is worth pursuing or not.

These basic details include the time and date of the accident and exactly how it happened. If possible you should have contact details of any witnesses as well as any medical procedures you may have had to undergo.

If you are a member of a Trade Union or have some other legal expenses insurance then this would save or completely illuminate any costs.

There may have been time off work and if this is so then a letter from your employer will also help.
Once all the details are heard and read at your initial free consultation with one of our solicitors he or she will be able to decide if a claim should be made and how much the likely pay-out could be.
