"After a traffic incident, I was told to get a good solicitor, and was recommended Switalskis Solicitors. I gave them a call as was put through to Katrina Elsey. From the very first meeting it was clear how professional they were. No matter how small my enquiry was throughout the process Katrina, was on hand to help and advise. I would fully recommend Katrina and Switalskis Solicitors to anyone looking for a good professional service."

When a child is injured in an accident, families are often focused, rightly, on recovery and rehabilitation. Legal claims may feel like a secondary concern. Fortunately, the law recognises this, offering additional time to bring a claim on behalf of a child.
When a child is injured in a road traffic accident, the effects can go far beyond the initial trauma. Injuries during early development can have lasting consequences, physically, emotionally, and financially.
Every August, we observe National Road Victim Month. It’s a time to remember and honour those who have been tragically killed or seriously injured in road traffic accidents. Behind each statistic is a real person. A life lost. A family shattered.
Every year, over 40,000 children in the UK are injured while using playground equipment, and many of those injuries are avoidable.
