ACCIDENTS WILL HAPPEN
No matter how careful you try to be you can still be the victim of an accident.
Accidents can happen anywhere at any time, in the home, at work, out shopping or whilst on the road as a motorist, cyclist, passenger or pedestrian.
Road accidents occur all too frequently and the consequences can be extremely serious, sometimes life is lost and sometimes serious injuries occur. Often there is financial loss, which is not covered by insurance.
Just suppose that you are travelling to work by car with your seatbelt correctly fastened. You come to a standstill at a road junction or because the traffic in front of you has come to a halt. Suddenly "ZAP" a car travelling behind had failed to stop his car running into the back of yours.
The chances are that seeing your solicitor is not your most immediate thought, but in fact the sooner you think of getting legal advice the better.
All being well you are not hurt, but you may have some unexpected expenditure to face, even if the repair costs of your car are met by insurance.
There is still the cost of towing and storing your damaged car. What about the hiring of a car whilst yours is off the road? Will you be able to claim for that?
Will you be able to claim for any belongings damaged in the accident? Can you do anything about the stiff neck you suffer the next day? That pain in your neck might sadly be merely a symptom of problems to follow.
What if the insurance company decide to write off your car and does not offer you as much as you had hoped - can you do anything about it?
If you are hurt, the need for legal advice is all the more important.
We at Smith and Graham will be able to advise you on all of these issues. We will be able to negotiate with the insurance company with regard to any claim for loss. We will be able to advise whether you can get your "no claims bonus" reinstated. We can assist you in pursuing a claim for personal injury and advise on all aspects relating to your accident. The sooner you seek advice the better.
You could be out shopping, or just going for a walk with the dog and suddenly trip over a defective paving stone and end up with a broken wrist.
At Smith and Graham we will be able to advise you as to whether you have any claim you can bring for compensation for your personal injury, loss of earnings from work, or damage to clothing.
While at work you fall off a ladder and break your ankle. Again we at Smith and Graham will be able to advise you as to whether you have a claim you can bring against your employers for your accident at work for personal injury and loss of earnings.
