Everything you need to know about
making a personal injury claim

In general, you have three years to make a claim - but the sooner you do, the better. The longer you leave it, the more chance there is that vital evidence will be lost.

How long do I have to make a claim?

What can I claim for?

Contact us

You can claim for loss and suffering which means you get a payment for the pain you endured as well as your losses: time off work, future earnings and any additional expenses.

This is incredibly difficult to say. However, we have a long track record of making sure our clients get the best possible financial outcome; in many cases, a larger sum than the insurers' first offer. Our investigation process ensures we cover every aspect of what you can claim for.

How much will I get?

How do I know if someone else was at fault?

How do I get started with making a claim?

We make it quick and painless to speak with a legal expert and raise an injury claim fast. Just give us a call - day or night.

How long will my claim take?

That entirely depends on what happened to you, the extent of the injuries and whether who was to blame is disputed. Our priority is recovering the full amount of compensation that you are entitled to.

Even if the evidence suggests that you are partly to blame, you might still be able to obtain compensation. We can help you gather evidence and establish blame for the accident.

How will my case be funded?

We have our own no win no fee funding model: Compensate. This provides the funding to allow your case to be fully investigated, employ the best experts and secure the maximum compensation at no financial risk to you.


We do not charge you any money upfront OR during the case. We agree a percentage of your compensation at the very start which you pay us on successfully concluding your case.


If your case is unsuccessful - you don't pay anything - it is risk free.*
