At Curtis Law Solicitors we operate on a NO WIN – NO FEE basis.

It is difficult to give an exact time frame for a personal injury claim. A straightforward personal injury claim can be settled in three to eight months. Other factors can affect the length of a personal injury claim, for example if the third party dispute that they were at fault for the accident or if medical evidence is ongoing. However, our dedicated Personal Injury Solicitors will deal with your claim as quickly and efficiently as possible.

It ordinarily takes around three-four weeks for the third party to pay your compensation from the date of acceptance of an offer. However, at Curtis Law Solicitors we request interim payments from the third party at the earliest opportunity for losses such as vehicle damage and treatment costs.

Approximately 97% of personal injury claims are settled out of Court so it is highly unlikely that you will have to attend Court regarding your claim.

If it does however seem likely that your claim may proceed to Court, you will be prepared for this well in advance by having a conference with one of our specialist Personal Injury Solicitors, who will fully explain the Court process to you and will make you feel at ease when answering questions regarding your accident.

No, at Curtis Law Solicitors we keep paperwork to a minimum for our clients. We will need to send documents to you such as your medical report. However, you will simply be required to sign off the medical report and advise us of any other losses you may have suffered such as loss of earnings.

We do not use legal jargon and ensure that all correspondence is set out in a simple and accessible format for our clients. We will also be happy to call you to discuss your medical report and any other documents, if this is more convenient for you.
