Personal
Serious Personal Injury
Representation for people seriously hurt in collisions and accidents, against insurers who have their own lawyers from day one.
After a serious collision, the insurer's adjuster is working on their file within hours. You should have someone working on yours. We deal with the insurance company, the medical documentation and the paperwork so you can concentrate on recovery.
Our clients tell us the most valuable part is simply knowing what happens next. At the first meeting we explain the whole process end to end, and you are kept up to date from there.
When clients call us
- A motor vehicle collision caused injuries that have not resolved
- An adjuster is asking for a recorded statement or offering a quick settlement
- Benefits or treatment have been cut off before you recovered
- An injury has affected your ability to work or care for your family
- A pedestrian, cyclist or scooter rider was struck by a vehicle
If your situation is not on this list, call anyway. We will tell you whether this is the right area, or point you to the one that is.
How it works
What happens after you call
- 01
Free first conversation
We listen to what happened, explain your options and the process, and tell you whether you need a lawyer at all.
- 02
We take over the communication
The insurer deals with us, not with you. We gather the collision report, medical records and records of your losses.
- 03
Building the claim
Medical and expert evidence establishing the extent of the injury and its effect on your work, income and daily life.
- 04
Settlement or court
We negotiate from a documented position. If the offer is not fair, we are prepared to file and proceed.
Common questions
Serious Personal Injury: what people ask first
- Should I speak to the other driver's insurer?
- Talk to a lawyer first. Early recorded statements are routinely used later to limit what you recover. We can handle that contact for you.
- How are your fees structured on an injury file?
- Injury matters are commonly handled on a contingency basis, so the fee comes out of the recovery. We confirm the exact arrangement in writing before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
- How long do I have to start a claim?
- Limitation periods are strict and missing one can end a valid claim entirely. Call as early as you can, even if you are unsure whether you want to proceed.
