How To Choose The Right Personal Injury Lawyer For Your Case
There are a lot of different aspects to consider when choosing a personal injury lawyer. These include:
Look For Reviews and Recommendations
Reviews and recommendations can be found online or through friends and family, and can be a good way to find law firms and lawyers. With that said, it’s also important to do your own research alongside these reviews.
Expertise Dealing With Your Type Of Case
Finding a lawyer that has experience in dealing with your type of case is important, because the claiming process can change depending on the specific circumstances of each case. An example of this might be that an environmental lawyer may not have the experience required to handle a complex employer liability claim.
For example, our panel of solicitors are experts in all kinds of personal injury law, from workplace injuries to car accidents.
Look For Accreditations
All practising solicitors in England and Wales need to be registered with the Solicitors Regulation Authority. They regulate over 200,000 solicitors and law firms all across England and Wales, and you can check that your solicitor is registered with them before you move ahead.
Read And Clarify Their Terms of Service
Before you work with any lawyer, they should clarify their terms of service and any fees or costs that they’ll charge you. They should also set out their expectations for the case. This should be done before you sign anything, so if it doesn’t sound right, you are under no obligation to stay.

Should I Use A Personal Injury Lawyer Near Me?
Thanks to developments in technology, you no longer need to work with a personal injury lawyer near you. In the past, people have been limited to working with lawyers in their local area, which often meant that those in rural areas or those who did not live near to specialists did not receive the services they deserved.
Now, thanks to mobile phones, computers, and online meetings, you can work with lawyers from anywhere within the UK. This means that you can find a lawyer who specialises in your particular case as opposed to only working with a local one.
Our panel of solicitors work with clients all over the country, providing specialist services for a number of different kinds of personal injury claims.

Why Should I Use A No Win No Fee Lawyer To Claim Compensation?
When you choose to work with a lawyer on your personal injury claim, they can help you:
- Collect evidence to support your case.
- Communicate with both the Courts and the defendant.
- Understand legal jargon and technical terms and explain them to you.
- Maximise your potential settlement amount.
- Negotiate a compensation payout.
Our panel of solicitors do all this and more on a No Win No Fee basis. They do this under the terms of a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA), which means that you can access their services without being asked to pay:
- Upfront.
- As the claim is ongoing.
- If the claim fails.
If your claim succeeds, then your No Win No Fee solicitor will take a success fee. This fee is a small percentage of your compensation, which is capped by law.
