How to Make a Personal Injury Claim

You never know when you could become the victim of a personal injury, but if you do it could change your life forever. Quite simply, personal injury is an injury or illness that occurs as a result of another person or organisation, meaning you could be entitled to compensation from those at fault usually within three years of the incident.

So, how do you make a claim? Read on for all you need to know.

Make sure you have as much evidence as possible about the incident - this includes medical and police reports, prescriptions, photographs and bills. Having all of this to hand will improve your chances of gaining compensation, and give your solicitor a lot more to work with. You should also write down important information such as where the incident took place, who was there, what happened and details of any witnesses.

The next step is to find a solicitor you can trust to work on your case. A professional solicitor will be able to guide you through the process and do all they can to help you gain compensation for your personal injury. The initial appointment will probably go over the basics of your claim, before they assess your evidence and start the process. 

How quickly you will gain compensation depends on many factors, but a good solicitor will work tirelessly to help you gain what you deserve. Different kinds of compensation include payouts for physical injuries, loss of earnings, medical bills and emotional distress. A solicitor can take the worry and hassle out of making an accident claim and help you get the compensation you want.
