Once all information has been gathered by your injury lawyer, they will then send a letter to the who you are making a claim against. The next stage is waiting on the reply (they'll have up to 3 months to respond).
The reply from the defendant (the person / party you are claiming against) will outline if they accept responsibility for your injury or not.
If the respondent accepts liability your injury lawyer will then advise you to settle-out-of-court.
You will also be advised at this stage what levels of compensation are acceptable and if all parties involved are in agreement the case is settled without ever having to go to court.
In the event of no agreement being reached either from accepting responsibility or compensation payments then the case will be brought to court and a judge will oversee proceedings.
Your injury lawyer / solicitor will have prepared for this outcome in any event and will advise you of the next stages as you seek to claim compensation for your injuries.
