How can the defendants insurers\/solicitors possibly work in the injured party\u2019s best interests?<\/p>\n<p>* The defendant\u2019s insurers will often make the injured party a financial offer, without the injured party being medically examined and without receiving a prognosis of when the injured party is likely to have fully recovered. <strong>This often leads to the injured party receiving a considerably lower amount of compensation than they are actually entitled to.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>* The defendant\u2019s insurers often <strong>sell on your personal injury claim to solicitors in a bidding war<\/strong>. This in turn eats into the financial budget of running your claim resulting in a poor service and your claim being handled by unqualified and untrained staff.<\/p>\n<p>In order to <strong>avoid becoming a victim of third party capture<\/strong> you must always seek independent legal advice, from a specialist firm.
