Medical Treatment and Rehabilitation

Depending on the type of injury you have suffered, we can also arrange for ongoing medical treatment and rehabilitation to assist with your recovery. Some personal injury accidents leave individuals unable to work therefore leading to the additional stress of loss of income. Losses associated with personal injury claims include physical, psychological or financial. Your personal injury claim will provide you with the compensation you deserve from the party that is believed to have caused you the loss.

What Information Do I Need To Proceed With A Claim?

We will request information from you concerning the accident. Examples of what this includes are:

  • Time and place of accident
  • Details on injury sustained and any treatment received
  • Police statements or accident log book if applicable.

We will also ask you to disclose details of losses you are aware of such as loss of wages. It is important to contact us as soon as possible after the accident or injury has occurred so we can commence legal proceedings and ensure your claim is as straight forward as possible.  

How Long Do I Have To Make a Claim?

In Northern Ireland, you have 3 years from the date the accident took place or date you first became aware of injury sustained to commence proceedings.
