Our advisors are understanding and compassionate and will listen to your circumstances, before outlining your options and matching you with a serious injury solicitor. Our solicitors are experts in serious injury law and offer No Win No Fee services, so you have no upfront costs to pay. You are under no obligation to go ahead with anything unless you are happy to do so.
Only pay a fee if you receive compensation
Our No Win No Fee solicitors will take a success fee from the compensation you are awarded for a successful claim in the form of a percentage of your damages.

Changing laws mean our solicitors will now take a payment of 30% of the final compensation amount plus VAT for all road traffic accident claims.
