Suffering a spinal cord injury can be life-changing, not just for you but for those around you. We understand how overwhelming the road ahead can feel, both physically and emotionally. Choosing the right solicitor to handle your spinal cord injury claim is crucial.
When dealing with a spinal cord injury, finding the right solicitor isn’t just about expertise—it’s about feeling supported and confident throughout the entire process. We are here for you and do our best to offer compassionate, personalised service to help you navigate this challenging time. Here’s how we approach spinal cord injury claims:
Building the right team for your case
Your case isn’t handled by one person—it’s supported by a team of experts who work together to get the best outcome for you. We bring in trusted medical specialists, case managers, and barristers, all of whom have experience in spinal cord injuries. This collaborative approach ensures we cover every angle of your case, from your immediate medical needs to long-term care and support.
No win, no fee – easing the financial worry
We know how much a spinal cord injury can strain your finances, from medical bills to adjustments in your daily life. That’s why we offer a No Win, No Fee arrangement, so you can focus on your recovery without the added stress of upfront legal costs. You don’t pay anything unless your case is successful, giving you peace of mind that you can pursue your claim without financial risk.
Securing interim payments
We know that while you wait for your final compensation, the bills and care needs don’t stop. That’s why we focus on securing interim payments—funds that help cover urgent expenses like rehabilitation and ongoing treatment. These payments can be a lifeline, giving you the support you need right away while we work on the larger claim.
Working with case managers & medical experts
Spinal cord injuries often require long-term medical care, rehabilitation, and lifestyle adjustments. We work closely with experienced case managers who can help coordinate the different aspects of your recovery, from organising medical treatments to arranging home adaptations and care plans. Our strong relationships with trusted medical experts ensure that we have the evidence needed to build a robust claim while also focusing on your immediate and future healthcare needs.
Accessing rehabilitation & specialist support
Rehabilitation is a vital part of recovery from a spinal cord injury. Whether you need physiotherapy, occupational therapy, or specialist medical equipment, we will help you access the right services. Through our work with case managers, we aim to make sure you have the best possible care during your recovery, both physically and emotionally.
Long-term planning for your future
A spinal cord injury can change your life in ways that require long-term adjustments. We not only focus on securing the maximum compensation to cover your immediate costs but also ensure that your settlement reflects the future care and support you will need. This includes ongoing medical treatment, equipment, adaptations to your home, and any other long-term requirements that will help you regain independence and quality of life.
Compassionate communication
The legal process can be overwhelming, and we understand that it’s not just the injury that’s hard to deal with—it’s also the unknown. That’s why we make communication a priority. We’re here to answer your questions, no matter how small, and to explain each step of the process so you always feel reassured.
We’ll give you regular updates on your case, so you know exactly where things stand. You can rely on us to be approachable and available whenever you need us.
