Serious, Catastrophic or Fatal Injury
Serious Injuries are defined as injuries which have a significant long-term impact on an injured party’s life as well as those around them.
If you or a loved one have a life changing injury, we understand the complexities and difficulties of the situation, understanding that life may never be the same again for those affected after a truly horrific incident. That’s why at Legal Assist, we would only recommend a catastrophic injury specialist solicitor to deal with your case. One which has a proven track record of dealing with complex high value matters such as yours. Law firms which have the expertise and resources to help those who have been affected have the best possible chance of finding a better quality of life after the incident by arranging care & family support services, specialist rehabilitation, complex surgery/s, property adaptations, disability equipment and any other aspects which are essential to making the future more independent & secure for everyone involved.
No win No fee
Our panel solicitors can handle your case on a no win, no fee basis which means there’s nothing to pay upfront and nothing to pay if your case is unsuccessful.
If your case is successful, our panel solicitors take between 25%- 50% from your awarded compensation. This varies amongst our panel members and will be dependent on the law firm we recommend you to as well as your claim type.
Full terms & conditions will be included in your solicitor’s agreement so please read this carefully and speak to them if you are unsure of anything before signing. For more information, please visit our No win No fee page.
Our solicitors aim to give those affected some breathing space from any financial burdens by requesting Interim payments from the compensator prior to any compensation. Cases as complex as these can take several years to settle as there are many contributing factors to determine the value and conclusion of a case, however throughout the journey, our dedicated panel are there for you.
Please note: You do not need to use a claims management company to make a claim for compensation. You can use a solicitor or company of your own choice or alternatively you can make a claim yourself for free via the person/entity you wish to claim from or via the relevant ombudsman service.
