How long will the personal injury case take?
The length of a personal injury case can vary widely depending on the specific circumstances of the case. There are several factors that can affect the duration of a personal injury case, including the complexity of the case, the severity of the injuries, and the willingness of the parties involved to reach a settlement. In some cases, a personal injury case may be settled relatively quickly, such as within a 6-9 months. However, if the case goes to trial, it can take significantly longer.
Will I have to go to court for a personal injury claim?
The majority of personal injury claims in the UK are settled out of court, with only around 3% going to trial. Whether or not you will have to go to court for a personal injury claim depends on a number of factors. In some cases, personal injury claims can be settled outside of court through negotiations between your solicitor and the opposing party’s insurance company. However, if a settlement cannot be reached, it may be necessary to file a lawsuit and go to court to resolve the case.
How much can I receive in compensation?
The maximum payable compensation amount differs per the nature of your injury and the severity of it. Severe regional pain could earn your up to £84k while even moderate pain problems can earn over £21k. Spinal cord injuries earn most, and in some cases upwards of £106k. Contact us and our personal injury solicitors will assess your case.
We operate on a No Win No Fee basis for personal injury claims. This means you won’t pay any legal fees unless we win your case.
