Had an accident? Our personal injury claims solicitors can help
If you’ve been involved in a road traffic accident, or had an accident at work or in a public place that wasn’t your fault, our team of personal injury claims solicitors and paralegals can offer you free initial legal advice to assess your compensation claim.

Our Sheffield based team of personal injury lawyers has extensive experience and specialised knowledge of dealing with a wide range of accident claims including:

There are different types of accident claim
As you can see, personal injury claims can be made following many different types of injury or accident – but it doesn’t necessarily just cover whiplash, broken bones and other physical injuries. A personal injury claim can be made for both physical and psychological suffering, whether the effects are instant or longer-term.

Why make a personal injury claim?
There are many reasons you might make a personal injury claim. Your injury could mean taking time off work and compensation will mean you have one less thing to worry about. But it’s not always just about the compensation, you could be making a claim to ensure what’s happened to you never happens to anyone else. But whatever your reason we’re here to make your whole personal injury claims process as straightforward and easy as possible.

Starting your personal injury claim
Every personal injury claim starts with free legal advice and an assessment of your case in an initial consultation. This is a one-to-one service with one of our professional personal injury experts who will assess your accident and the chances of a successful claim – we can even visit you at your home or in hospital if necessary.

No win no fee
And it’s not just the initial assessment that’s free – in the event that we don’t win your personal injury case, we won’t charge you a thing.
