Am I entitled to compensation?
If you have suffered an injury because of someone else’s actions or negligence, you may be entitled to compensation. This can be the case after, for example:
- a traffic accifent;
- a workplace accident;
- a bicycle accident;
- a slip or fall;
- medical malpractice;
- a violent crime.
Compensation may cover more than just medical expenses. You may also have losses relating to loss of income, help around the house, travel expenses, delays to your studies or compensation for pain and suffering and the impact your injuries have had on your life.
Whether you are entitled to compensation depends on the circumstances of your case. During an initial consultation, we look at what happened and explain what options may be available to you.
The cost of a personal injury claim
Many people assume that legal assistance in a personal injury case is expensive. In many cases, however, this does not have to be the case.
When another party is liable for your injuries, the reasonable costs of legal assistance can often be recovered from the liable party or their insurer. This means that you generally do not have to pay these costs yourself.
During the initial consultation, we explain how this works in your particular situation, so that you know where you stand from the outset.
Am I entitled to compensation?
You may be entitled to compensation if you have suffered an injury as a result of someone else’s actions or negligence.
Your losses can involve much more than medical expenses. They may include loss of income, help with household tasks, travel expenses, recovery-related costs and compensation for pain and suffering.
We carefully assess which losses have resulted from the accident and which types of damage may be included in your claim.
When is legal assistance advisable?
Legal assistance can be valuable as soon as there is uncertainty about liability, compensation or communication with an insurer.
It is also advisable to have your situation assessed if your recovery takes longer than expected, your income is affected or you are unsure whether an insurer’s proposed compensation is fair.
This can help prevent important losses from being overlooked or you from agreeing to a settlement before you fully understand its consequences.
