			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you really get something for free? Is there not always a catch or a hidden cost thinly veiled behind a free offer? In the majority of cases it is always best to be careful of those &#8216;too-good-to-true-deals&#8217;, but when it comes to 100% Compensation Claims I&#8217;d say, &#8216;Do your homework!&#8217; For those of you who may not be sure what 100% Compensation Claims are, I&#8217;ll try and get you up-to-speed quickly. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/injury-lawyers-blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/100-per-cent.jpg" alt="" title="100-per-cent" width="450" height="200" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-123" /></p>
<p><span id="more-122"></span></p>
<p>Individuals that have suffered an <a href="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/">injury</a> via an accident they may be thinking about claiming compensation. Some claims are straightforward, where the other person / party accepts responsibility and negligence allowing the claimant to proceed and claim damages for their injury to themselves, damage to their property, loss of earnings etc&#8230; But you still have to fund your claim in order to claim compensation for your injury and a lot of people do not have the financial clout to proceed with a compensation claim. This is where <strong>100% Compensation Claims</strong> offered by specialist personal injury lawyers come into play.  </p>
<p>100% Compensation Claims also known as &#8216;<a href="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/no_win_no_fee.php">No Win No Fee Claims</a>&#8216; are a special agreement drawn up between the claimant (you) and the personal injury lawyer, where the <strong>injury lawyer will fund your claim from start to finish</strong> and also the claimant (you) will receive 100% of any compensation  rewarded. The personal injury lawyer who represented you, will claim their fees from the losing the side (normally, the person / party you were claiming against insurance company). </p>
<p>There told you, straight forward stuff. But, it gets more interesting when there is a greater risk of the claimant (you) losing the compensation claim. Understandably, when the injury lawyer is funding your claim and the risk factor is high, then the lawyer needs to make sure they can recoup their money somehow. This is when it is vitally, important to the person making the claim that they fully <strong>understand the policy that they enter into with a 100% Compensation Claim</strong>. It may feel like the person making the claim is being rewarded 100% Compensation but the finer print in the contract might state that because of the high element of risk involved then they have to pay some form of dividend if the claim is successful. </p>
<p>That is why at <a href="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/">The Injury Lawyers</a> we always make this clear and simple to all clients looking to use our services. There are no nasty surprises waiting in store for any of our clients when they choose to run a 100% Compensation Claim.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lady Luck can sometimes deal us a bad hand and occasionally, we can find ourselves at the wrong end of an accident, suffering an injury, through no fault of our own.

<p>A professional injury lawyer / solicitor is the best person to contact if you have been unfortunate enough to have been injured from an accident that was not entirely your fault. Why choose a professional injury lawyer to oversee your <a href="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/whiplash_claims.php">compensation claim</a>.

They have the experience at hand to offer you only the best advice possible to help make complex matters simple and guide you knowingly through each step of the compensation process.</p>
<p>2. A Personal Injury Lawyer should always have your best interests at heart. They will fight to make sure you get the maximum compensation due to you <strong>without putting your claim in jeopardy</strong> during the process. </p>
<p>3. Putting your claim together can be a time-consuming effort and there is a lot of documentation that requires to be processed during the preparation period. Injury Lawyers, understand the commitment required in order to submit a water-tight claim that the other side cannot pick apart with ease. It is <strong>important to understand</strong> that poorly structured claims can and will be quashed by the opposing side!</p>
<p>4. Funding your claim is also important and a personal injury lawyer can help you with the burden of this by offering to run your claim under a &#8216;<a href="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/no_win_no_fee.php">No Win No Fee</a>&#8216; policy. Its best to shop around to find the best policy that suits your needs and also make sure that the <strong>&#8216;No Win No Fee&#8217; policy also offers you 100% compensation</strong> if you win.</p>
<p>5. Lastly, having a professional injury lawyer on your side can help alleviate a lot of stress that may otherwise build-up and make your claim process even more painful than the injury you originally suffered. Professional Injury Lawyers <strong>help claimants beat the stress of preparing and submitting a compensation claim</strong> because they understand better than most how the process works.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s difficult to think that anyone could really suffer a serious injury working in an office environment. I mean it&#8217;s not like a building site or even a factory shop floor yet a high number of office workers suffer <a href="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/">injury</a> that can keep them out of employment for months on end. One of the most common injuries suffered by office workers is repetitive strain injury estimated to cost British businesses around £300million a year in lost working hours.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/injury-lawyers-blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/rsi.jpeg" alt="" title="rsi" width="480" height="260" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-120" /></p>
<p><span id="more-119"></span></p>
<p><strong>Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)</strong> is the overuse of certain activities on an almost daily basis and can also be caused by poor office equipment such as faulty chairs, keyboards or computer screens. Stress is also a factor in RSI, where office workers under pressure, often experience greater pain around the muscles or joints that  are greatly effected by similar everyday tasks.</p>
<p>If you feel that you may be suffering from RSI then please get a proper medical check for the condition. In some cases you may be eligible to make a <strong>compensation claim against your employer</strong> for Repetitive Strain Injury, if you have made them aware of the pain you were suffering due to poor office equipment and they choose to ignore your claims and instructed you to carry-on with your work.</p>
<p>The Injury Lawyers deal with all types of personal injury claims including work related RSI office injury claims. Give us a call on <strong>0800 634 7575</strong> and speak to a proper injury lawyer / solicitor about making a compensation claim for your injury.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At The Injury Lawyers we cannot stress enough to people looking to make a <a href="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/road_traffic_accidents.php">car accident claim</a>, where they have suffered an injury through no fault of their own, of the importance in collecting information from the scene of the accident. Especially when you consider that insurance companies are becoming increasingly tough on claims that are not set-out properly to the extent where they will <strong>reduce the payment to the claimant</strong> or even quash the claim completely.</p>

<p><span id="more-113"></span></p>
<p><strong>Document The Scene of The Accident As Best You Can</strong></p>
<p>Getting the details of the other party / parties involved in the accident is always recommended. This includes names, addresses, insurance documents, registration numbers etc&#8230; Also, consider getting details of any witnesses that seen the accident unfold. If you have a mobile phone with an internal camera take pictures of the damage caused to your vehicle, tyre marks on the road, injuries that you or others have received that you feel will back up your statement.</p>
<p>If the police have been called then don&#8217;t let the other party leave the scene of the accident. Sometimes, dependant on where the accident takes place, especially in remote areas, it may be difficult to contact the police.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Manchester United starlet, <strong>Ben Collett</strong>, was awarded £4.5 million in damages yesterday in compensation after he received a football injury while playing for Manchester United reserves. Ben, who is now 23 years old, had been at the club since he was 9 years old, was injured back in 2003 in a reserve match against Middlesbrough when he was just 18.</p>
<p><span id="more-109"></span></p>
<p><img src="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/injury-lawyers-blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/ben-collett.jpg" alt="" title="ben-collett" width="185" height="360" align="left" style="padding-right: 5px;" border="0" /> The record payout was for future loss of earnings: £3.9 million; loss of past earnings: £460,000 and £40,000 for the pain and suffering Ben endured while he went through rehabilitation. </p>
<p>The compensation payout also takes into account that Ben Collett, was about to sign a three-year <strong>professional deal with Manchester United</strong> and would have been at the very least a squad player with the first team playing in the lucrative Premier League. </p>
<p>However, many sports experts have raised questions over the successful <a href="http://www.theinjurylawyers.co.uk/">compensation claim</a> payout claiming it is too difficult to tell if Ben Collett would have made the grade as a Premiership player and continued to play in the top league for the rest of his playing future. </p>
