PERSONAL INJURY
PJE Solicitors represent Claimants and Defendants in personal injury claims.
A personal injury is when a person or persons suffer a physical or mental condition/injury due to the acts or omissions of another (where others have breached a duty of care).
A potential claim has a number of pre-action steps, Protocols to follow and it is essential the correct procedure is adhered to. Then proceedings can be issued at Court.
It may be the case that your claim can be settled by negotiation. This is something we at PJE Solicitors consider and are able to facilitate.
PJE Solicitors aim to offer a competitive service and try to simplify the process during what is often a very stressful and upsetting time.
FOR THE CLAIMANT
The Claimant is the person(s) making the claim – the one who suffered injury.
If you have suffered an injury and you were not at fault, you may be able to make a claim for compensation (which can include a claim for pain and suffering, loss or earnings and expenses incurred as a result of the accident. It is important you retain proof of these expenses, for example, receipts etc).
Injury suffered can include a slip or trip at work or on the pavement or anywhere, a road traffic accident, medical negligence, criminal injuries etc.
Claimants will ask themselves can I make a claim and how do I make a claim?
We at PJE Solicitors offer a ‘no win no fee’ approach to funding your claim based on a case by case analysis.
It is important to remember that if you have suffered a personal injury the limitation period, which is the period within which to make your claim, lasts three years. After the limitation period expires, you will not be able to make your claim.
We believe that someone should not have to suffer physically or financially because of another’s avoidable mistake(s).
At such an emotional time it is important to take comfort in the fact that you are able to seek advice and guidance from Solicitors who care.
FOR THE DEFENDANT
The Defendant is the person(s) against whom a claim is made.
If an individual or group of people are making a claim for personal injury against you or your organisation then it is important to know where you stand.
Such a claim can have, amongst others, very serious financial implications.
It is imperative you act appropriately and promptly.
The claim may be capable of settlement which is an option to be considered. PJE Solicitors can facilitate such negotiations.
