*******************************

Get a medical certificate. This tip should be a priority if only to set on record that you have suffered a neck sprain as well as other injuries as a result of that vehicle accident. This medical record is very important to prove your case.


Compensation Myth - Britain is in the grip of a 'Compensation Culture'

This has been a major concern that has been publicised over the past few years and the majority of people believe it. It is quite simply not true. Insurance companies want the public to believe it to try and limit or reduce the costs of settling claims. It is true that several high profile companies had a major effect on the number of claims being made a few years ago. Both these companies have since closed down and it turned out that many of the claims were not genuine. Often, it was the company that made them up without a victim at all. If these
companies are taken out of the equation, then the level of claims has not risen at all. Strangely, it is widely accepted that out of every 100 people who have accidents that were not their fault and are entitled to make a claim, only around 30 of them actually do so. If anything, more of the public need to exercise their right to claim compensation.
Get the services of an experienced whiplash injury solicitor who can help you in filing the case. He can also give you advice on how to prosecute the case properly if you want to win your whiplash injury case.

Get photographs of the vehicle accident. If you have a camera during the accident then it would do your case a lot of good if you can get shots of the actual accident. If you are heavily injured then you can ask someone to take photos of the accident as these photos will be very important later on.

Have a thorough medical check up a week after the accident if you are still feeling dizzy or you are experiencing blurred vision or have trouble concentrating. Watch out for any whiplash injury symptoms like irritability or depression and consult with your doctors immediately so he can add it the symptoms to your medical file.

Aim for the greatest financial compensation as much as possible. A person suffering from a whiplash injury can get compensation of up to two hundred pounds or more depending on the injuries sustained. If you can prove the severity of your whiplash injury then you might get a higher compensation.

The compensation you can get from a whiplash injury should not only be for the physical injuries you have suffered. You also deserve compensation for loss of wages and other opportunities because of the injury.

Always go for the complete test after a vehicle accident. And I mean not just the doctor checking your pulse or your heartbeat or any other visible injuries. It also means getting the X-rays a CAT scan or other tests. If you are paying for all of these tests then keep the receipts as you may need them when filing the case.



While most work accidents in the UK are related to minor injuries, there are however cases of deaths resulting from work accidents in the UK. When this happens, an inquest is conducted so that the facts of the work accident will be made known not only to the worker and his family but also to the employer and to the authorities. Try to get a solicitor under the no win no fee agreement. If you are hesitant about filing a whiplash injury case because you are concerned about your financial capacity to pay your solicitor then do not worry because there are personal injury solicitors who will offer their services under this scheme.

Check the documents that an insurance company will present you in an effort to negotiate a settlement. Make sure your solicitor has reviewed the settlement agreement because there may be terms that are not favourable to you like you may be agreeing that the insurance company will pay you in instalment or that you can no longer get additional compensation even if you discover a greater in jury later on.

Check your timeframe. A whiplash injury case can be filed in court within three years from the time of the injury. If you fail to file your case within this period then you may no longer have any whiplash injury case to prosecute much more to win. There are legal procedures that must be observed and no matter how serious your whiplash injuries are you will no longer get compensation if you fail to assert such right on time.

A whiplash injury can be horrible and can a very traumatic incident. It is only fair that those who were at fault for the incident should be penalized by asking them to compensate their victims. Help yourself get the proper compensation in your whiplash in jury case by considering these tips as the basic guidelines when filing your case.

Throughout the working environment of all employees should know the health and safety standards in place in their workplace. These should be called by a member of or a trainer so that employees can try and avoid accidents in workplace.

Who and where can I complain about a Solicitor (UK)?
The Conveyancers dealing with the sale and purchase of my property are failing to respond to my queries, failing to advise me of updates and have actually updated me on someone else's sale! Who regulates Solicitors and does anyone have any advice? Thanks for all the answers. I have tried to get information about who to complain to but they don't even give me these details! I am at a crucial point now so it would be costly both financially and timewise to change firms but it isn't out of the question at this point. I really appreciate the feedback. Thanks

Lawyer (solicitor! UK) seeing second opinion?
not very happy with my solicitors advice though i know i have to act soon due to proceedings, anyway there is a more senior solicitor in the firm that may have had more experience in these cases and i want to ask their opinion, but i dont want to piss off the other guy (who i have not paid to take work on for me but we have discussed issues at length). do i just call up the more senior solicitor and see if i can set up a time to discuss things with him (SOON) and get his opinion? or would everyone get pissed off in the firm that i am asking another's advice... and if the guy i spoke to previously found out would he just be super pissed off? and not want to discuss things further?
