We do however find that we’re asked a number of questions quite regularly and with any luck you will find the answers below useful.
I'm already with another firm of solicitors, may I transfer my case to you?
Yes, is the short answer. If you think that the service you are receiving from your current solicitors doesn’t meet your requirements we can arrange for the file to be transferred free of charge. If we feel that we can move the file we would usually agree to pay your current solicitors their costs when claim settles.
Do I have to go to a doctor's evaluation?
While some cases do settle without needing a medical report, most of our clients do have to attend medical examination. This really is nothing to worry about and is there to safeguard you to guarantee that the settlement you receive reflects the full extent of your injury. We usually make sure the medical assessment is as close to you as possible and you’ll get plenty of advanced warning.
