How Do I Make A Claim Following An Accident?
If you have been referred to Irwin Mitchell following an accident please ring 03456 041 561 and one of our team will be available to answer any questions you may have.
How Much Compensation Will I Receive?
The amount of compensation you receive will depend on how seriously you have been injured, the impact it has had on your home, working and social life and whether you will need extra support in the future.
We will advise you at the outset on how courts approach the assessment of compensation, and how that will apply to your case. However, we are all different and the consequences of the same injury will vary from person to person.
In addition to compensation for your injury, we will also include claims for any out of pocket expenses such as loss of earnings, care and assistance, damages items, repair/policy excess costs and loss of use.
As we learn more about you and your injury, and obtain further evidence such as medical reports, we will be able to assess more accurately how much a court is likely to award you.
How Long Will It Take To Resolve My Claim?
This depends on many factors and not one claim is the same as another. However, the simplest cases, where liability is accepted, will take around 4 months from when we are appointed by you to pursue your case.
If liability is disputed or the responsible party cannot be traced then the case will take longer. The seriousness of your injury will also have an impact on the length of time it takes to settle your case. In some cases, the extent of an injury and its true impact, does not become clear for several months or even years and it is therefore important to fully understand the long term effects of any injury you have suffered to ensure that you receive the right level of compensation.
Our experienced team will be able to guide you through the claims process and will ensure that you receive clear advice on the different options available and what, in our opinion, is the best way forward for you.
We will ensure that we achieve the best possible outcome for you.
