4 reasons why you shouldn’t be embarrassed to make an injury claim
Most of us wouldn't think twice about claiming compensation if a third party caused harm to our belongings. If our car was damaged or our property destroyed by somebody else's negligence, we would take all the necessary action to secure the appropriate compensation and hold the third party to account. Surprisingly, we often do not extend the same kindness to ourselves. If the harm sustained is to our bodies or mental well-being as opposed to ...
5 misconceptions about making a personal injury claim
Most people have heard of personal injury law and have a vague understanding of what it involves. Unless somebody has personal experience with a personal injury claim, though, their knowledge is often based on what they have seen in the media and third-party accounts of the claims process. As a result, misinformation abounds, which leads to misconceptions that can sadly dissuade those with genuine personal injury claims from pursuing them. Here, we debunk 5 common ...
Know your rights with a personal injury claim
We all expect to go about our day-to-day business safely - and rightly so. Unfortunately, though, accidents can happen anywhere - at work, when we're doing the weekly shop, on the school run, in the gym – the list is endless. If we've been involved in an accident which wasn't our fault and suffered harm, it's only right that those responsible are held to account.

A slip, trip or fall can often be unremarkable and leave us red-faced but essentially unharmed. Sometimes, though, their impact can be more severe. Here, we discuss how a simple slip, trip or fall might be more dangerous than you perhaps think. Fact 1: Slips, trips and falls can cause ...

“It’s just a little injury” – but is it really?
The vast majority of injuries resulting from accidents are thankfully minor. In the context of road traffic accidents, for example, statistics compiled by the Department for Transport show that of the 128,209 reported road casualties in Great Britain in 2021, over 79% were only 'slightly injured' by the accident. We often dismiss an injury as nothing to worry about; luckily, we're often right. Occasionally though, a seemingly inconsequential injury can be considerably more serious than ...
