Services
Personal Injury Claims
We specialise in securing compensation for injuries caused by others' negligence. Our solicitors handle road traffic accidents, workplace injuries, and public space incidents. Clients benefit from our 'no win, no fee' structure and direct case handler communication throughout Lancashire and nationwide.
Workplace Accidents
Covering factory accidents, industrial diseases, and office injuries, our team challenges employers' breach of duty. We pursue claims for hearing loss, unsafe equipment injuries, and other workplace hazards. With 88 years' experience, we ensure maximum compensation for lost earnings and medical expenses.
Road Traffic Accidents
Handling bicycle, motorcycle, and pedestrian accidents, we process claims through the Ministry of Justice portal. Our solicitors assist with uninsured drivers via the Motor Insurers Bureau. Clients receive support for medical costs, vehicle repairs, and income loss following non-fault collisions.
Slip/Trip Claims
We pursue compensation for injuries from uneven pavements or shop floor hazards. No witness evidence required. Our solicitors negotiate with local authorities and commercial premises to recover damages for medical treatment and related expenses across Lancashire.
No Win No Fee
Our conditional fee arrangements eliminate financial risk. If claims fail, clients pay nothing. Successful cases recover 85-90% of awarded compensation, exceeding the standard 75% industry rate. Clear cost explanations provided before case initiation.
Questions
How do I start a personal injury claim?
Contact us via freephone 0800 00 55 44 or our website enquiry form. Provide incident details and we'll assess your case's validity with no initial costs.
What if the accident wasn't reported to police?
Not a problem - we can still process claims using available evidence like medical records and witness statements from the incident location.
How long do claims take?
Most cases settle within 30-40 days under the Pre-Action Protocol, though complex injuries requiring specialist medical reports may take longer.
Do you handle claims outside Lancashire?
Yes, while based in Blackpool we represent clients nationwide including workplace accidents, road incidents and holiday injury claims across the UK.
What costs apply if my claim fails?
No fees apply under our 'no win, no fee' agreement. All costs come from awarded compensation if your case succeeds.
How is compensation calculated?
We use Judicial College guidelines and individual circumstances including medical expenses, lost earnings and quality of life impact. Our calculator provides initial estimates.
