Making a Personal Injury Claim

We understand that talking about your injury and making a personal injury claim can feel daunting. It’s a conversation no one ever truly wants to have. But, for thousands of injured people and their families every year, it’s one of the conversations that can make life a little easier after a personal injury. Working towards securing compensation will help ease the financial burdens associated with lost earnings after a personal injury, and give you the peace of mind that you have an expert legal advisor who is standing up for you, and your rights.

If you have suffered a personal injury that wasn’t your fault, Thompsons can support you in making a personal injury claim. Follow these steps to understand how to get started:

• Report the accident and gather evidence: Depending on the type of accident and where it took place, you may need to report it to whoever you believe to be responsible (for example, if the accident happens in the workplace or in a supermarket) and make a note of the incident in an accident book. If your accident happens in public or on the roads, be sure to take names and addresses of witnesses and, if appropriate, take photographs of the area. It’s important that, for any expenses you incur as a result of your injury, you keep the receipts as you may be able to claim these back.
  
  
• Contact our solicitors: Contact Thompsons Solicitors for free, no-obligation advice and to discuss your case. You will speak to one of our experienced team who will listen to your story, understand your experience and take down the detail we need to evaluate whether you have a case. We will give you honest advice about whether you have a case that is likely to succeed, and walk you through the next steps.
