Have Your Personal Injury Case Reviewed For Errors And Mistakes
Whenever you instruct a solicitor or legal professional to work on your behalf, you are entitled to expect to receive a certain level of service. If they then fail to reach this level of service, and you suffer financial loss as a result, then you could be entitled to claim compensation equivalent to that loss from your solicitor. Doing so will require that you use a specialist solicitor who has experience in dealing with professional negligence, and more specifically solicitor negligence, cases.
If compensation case proceedings are not submitted within three years of the date of the accident, then you will find that it is too late to submit the case at all. This means that have not only missed out on receiving the full amount of compensation that you are entitled to, but it means that you miss out on receiving any compensation from the original case.
Personal Injury Law
There are many other elements to the case that may need to be dealt with within a certain timeframe. For example, appropriate witness statements need to be collected and submitted by the court set deadline, and failing to meet this deadline could also mean that your compensation claim goes no further. Once this happens, it is unlikely that you will be able to start the claim again, or pick up where you left off, so you will be left without any compensation for your personal injury case.
If you are advised to accept an offer that is ultimately determined to be too low, then you may have received some compensation, but you may not have enough to cover all of the bills or to make ends meet while you rest, recuperate, and recover following the accident. Don’t simply believe that accepting a lower offer is part and parcel of ending the case sooner; you should only be advised to accept a reasonable offer. If you were advised not to take an offer, but did so anyway, then it is unlikely that you will be able to make any additional claims from your solicitor because they provided appropriate advice.
Just because you did not receive the full amount that you were entitled to, or your solicitor’s actions meant that you were unable to claim any compensation at all, does not mean that you should left out of pocket, however. After all, it was your solicitor’s mistake that led to your loss, so it is them that should have to meet the shortfall. This is what solicitor negligence claims are meant for – to ensure that you still receive the full amount of compensation that you need, even when it is not possible to claim it all from the original group.
Have your original case reviewed and have a professional solicitor look over your file and payments to ensure that you have not fallen foul of professional negligence. At the very least, you can enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing your case was dealt with professionally and properly in the first place.
