LEI is a sham, pure and simple.
How Do You Choose A Good Personal Injury Lawyer
Choosing an Injury Lawyer to represent yourself if your thinking about claiming compensation can be difficult. There are so many variables that need to be taken into account and in most cases no two claims are 100% similar. Where do you start your search? How can you tell the difference between a good injury lawyer and one that may cost you your claim. Do you select your choice because they are local? A friend informed you of their services? Or was it down to the fact that they advertised on TV or Radio and engraved their message into your head?
No Win No Fee, How Can that Be
We all know Lawyers charge you a fortune right?
Not necessarily, when you decide to take legal action in order to claim compensation for your accident/injury, you may choose to appoint an Injury Lawyer who works on a ‘No Win No Fee’ basis.
It means that your Injury Lawyer will only be entitled to his fees if he is successful in winning your case. If your claim is lost then your Lawyer is not getting paid, not even a penny. Yes that’s right, a ‘No Win No Fee’ really does mean ‘No Win No Fee‘.
Accident Claims for Personal Injury
There are over an estimated 700,000 accident claims each year in the UK alone. The majority of those claims involves an injury to one person caused by the negligence of another person. The percentage of blame does not necessarily need to be 100% the other persons fault. Even if the injured party was in the majority to blame for causing the accident they may still be awarded compensation although the damages paid would reflect their overall part in the accident.
Understanding what to do next after being involved in a road traffic accident can be confusing and somewhat testing time. You may have suffered a neck injury also known as whiplash after the accident and depending on the severity of the whiplash injury could require medical treatment.
If you have been injured from the road accident then you also have the worry of taking time of work which can mean loss of earnings to some. Then there is cost of repairs to your vehicle. That’s why you have insurance you say. But what happens when the other vehicle may not have insurance cover or was driven by joyriders or even the driver was under the influence. Who pays then? Does your insurance still pay out in those circumstances?
Why Insurers Would Like To Remove Lawyers From Personal Injury Claims
Ever wondered why insurance companies give personal injury lawyers a hard time? The reason is simple and one that they would like to keep secret – insurance companies pay out more in compensation cases to people making a claim that are represented by a personal injury lawyer than those without a lawyer.
Its not surprising to learn that in identical cases those that are legally represented will receive more compensation for their injuries even after legal fees have been deducted than someone who goes it alone.
If you were involved in a road traffic accident and riding a motorcycle at the time, there may be a good chance of you claiming compensation if you suffered an injury through no fault of your own.
