Making a claim for personal injury compensation against a council, local authority, or highways agency isn’t easy when it comes to winning a case. Defects in roads and on paths can appear in such short periods of time, especially during adverse weather conditions, and the duty the council or an authority has isn’t very strict.

But The Injury Lawyers offer a risk free No Win, No Fee guarantee for council claims so read on for how it all works.

Compensation is based upon the severity of your injuries and how long the injuries will affect your everyday life. As such, there is not really such a thing as a “standard” payout for any particular injury as everyone can be affected differently.

In law the defendant has to take the claimant as they find them – for example if your injury is an exacerbation of an existing injury this doesn’t mean you don’t have the right to claim as, of-course, if it wasn’t for the injury, your condition would not have been aggravated!

So to start with… how do we as independent expert personal injury solicitors value your claim for compensation?
