There are lots of myths about making personal injury and medical negligence compensation claims.
This could put people with serious, life-changing injuries off from seeking legal advice from a specialist personal injury and medical negligence solicitor. That’s why it’s vital to dispel these myths.
Darren O’Sullivan separates the facts from the fiction about making personal injury and medical negligence compensation claims.
What are the top five myths about making personal injury claims?
-
Personal injury and medical negligence claims are too complex
This is wrong. Starting a compensation claim is very straightforward. To kick-start the process, all you need to do is contact a specialist personal injury and medical negligence solicitor and they will guide you through all the steps of the claim.
-
It’s too expensive to make a compensation claim
This is not true. If you make a claim for compensation on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis there are no hidden costs and absolutely no financial risk to you. In the unlikely event your claim is unsuccessful; you won’t have to pay a penny.
-
There’s too much paperwork involved in making a claim
This is inaccurate. Your solicitor will take care of most of the paperwork for you. They will handle your compensation claim from day one and at each stage of the process, will work hard to minimise any unnecessary form filling.
-
You’ll have to go to court to get your compensation
In the vast majority of cases this isn’t the case. Most personal injury and medical negligence compensation claims are settled out of court and there is only a small chance your claim will require a hearing in front of a judge. If your case does have to go to court, your solicitor will guide and support you every step of the way.
-
Making a compensation claim is too time-consuming
This isn’t the case at all. Working with a local personal injury and medical negligence solicitor, such as Novum Law, means you won’t have to travel too far. If it’s difficult or inconvenient to get to your solicitor’s office, you can always ask for home visits or wherever you feel most comfortable.
If you or someone close to you has sustained a serious, life-changing injury in an accident that wasn’t your fault or suffered due to medical negligence, Novum Law can help you make a ‘No Win, No Fee’ claim for maximum compensation.
