Accidents In Edinburgh

If you have been injured in an accident on the road, or at work, or in a public place in Edinburgh, you need to understand what your options are, and quickly. If you cannot return to work, how will you pay your bills? If you need medical treatment how quickly can you receive it? If your car needs repairing should you use your own insurance company or wait for the other driver’s insurance company to pay for the repairs?

What Charges Will You Have To Pay?

If you ask us to help you with an accident claim, we are usually able to act on a “no win, no fee” basis. This means that you will not have to pay any fees to us while we are pursuing your claim, and we will only be paid a fee if we win. Wherever possible we will ensure that you keep all of your compensation.

Our Unique Funding Arrangement For Edinburgh Accident Claims

The vast majority of claims settle out of court. If that does not prove possible and court is the only way forward, many victims of accidents give up due to a fear that they will be found liable to pay the other side’s heavy legal costs if they lose. Their solicitor may have been happy to do the case on a “no win no fee” basis, so at least they’re not getting a bill from him, but that is not much comfort when they get handed a bill for tens of thousands of pounds from their victorious opponents!

We have the solution to this problem. We can offer you ATE (After The Event) insurance, an ideal arrangement for the vast majority of litigants who have limited funds but nevertheless are left with no alternative but to seek justice in the courts.

If you have our ATE arrangement, we will not only handle the case on a no win no fee basis, but will also take out an insurance policy for you which pays your legal costs should the subsequent court case not be successful. In our scheme the premium will only be around £200 - £300. You don’t have to pay it until the end of the case, and only then if you have been successful, which of course means there is no loss to you at all if the case is unsuccessful. Outlays incurred during the case are also refunded if the result is unfavourable, so effectively you can pursue a court action in a completely safe place. The only requirement is that the case must have at least a 51% chance of success. We will assess this for you completely free of charge.
