Serious Injury Solicitor
It's often possible to make a claim if you've been involved in an accident that wasn't your fault, and you can receive compensation for a range of different types of injuries. For those who have suffered serious injuries that should have been avoided, compensation can be a lifeline that can make all the difference to your recovery. If you have sustained brain injuries, spinal cord injuries or other serious problems that could have lifelong consequences, it's crucial to work with a specialist serious injury solicitor when making your claim.
At Switalskis, our personal injury team has a number of experienced personal injury lawyers who specialise in serious injury claims, and a strong track record of success in delivering the maximum compensation to people who need it. We know that it can take considerable time and money to properly recover from a serious incident, or to adapt to new circumstances following life changing injuries. We take into account everything you'll need moving forward and work to secure compensation that reflects the full extent of your injuries and their impact on your life.
Throughout the claims process, Switalskis offers support that goes beyond legal advice. Our serious injury solicitors can make sure you get the best possible treatment, and connect you with resources that can help you to prepare for life with an injury. We typically claim serious injury compensation for our clients on a no win, no fee basis, which means there is no financial risk involved in making a claim.

We understand how difficult life can feel after a serious injury. You’ll have a solicitor by your side who listens, supports you, and keeps everything clear and straightforward.
Access to justice should never depend on finances. Many of our cases are funded on a “no win, no fee” basis, so you won’t pay anything unless your claim succeeds.
Switalskis specialises in claiming compensation for serious and catastrophic injuries on behalf of clients whose lives have been changed. It can be frustrating when you're injured in an accident that was caused by someone else's negligence, and serious injuries can take years to fully heal, or result in permanent consequences in the most serious cases. Making a personal injury claim is an opportunity to cover any financial costs associated with recovery, secure the best treatment available and pay for anything you need to accommodate a permanent disability or adjust to new circumstances.
Our serious injury solicitors make this process as simple and straightforward as possible. We'll break down any complicated legal terminology and help you to understand the process in detail, so you'll know what's expected and what we need from you at every stage. By taking on the bulk of the legal responsibility, we'll give you more time to focus on your family, your recovery and the other things that matter most to you.
We approach every serious injury compensation claim differently, and tailor our approach to suit your requirements and the specifics of your situation. That helps us to offer expert legal advice and support that meets your exact needs, and give you the best possible chance at securing the compensation you are owed.
Making a compensation claim can be daunting, but our personal injury team's experts in serious injury claims can make things simple and straightforward. While the process is never the same from one claim to the next, there are key stages in every claim that can help you to understand what to expect and how close you are to receiving your compensation.
The process starts when you call us to discuss the details of your accident and the injuries you sustained. We'll assess whether we believe you can claim based on the circumstances and, if we believe you’re entitled to serious injury compensation, we'll get the process started on your behalf.
If you decide to claim with us, we'll start collecting evidence and building your case straight away. The evidence we'll need usually includes medical records about your injuries, photographs of the accident scene, and statements from any witnesses to the accident. This can help us to determine who was responsible for your accident, and prove that you are entitled to compensation for your injuries.
Once we’ve gathered the evidence we need to make your claim as strong as possible, we'll send a letter of claim to the person or organisation we believe was responsible, or their insurance provider. This will outline your intention to claim and the evidence we've gathered. The other party will then have a few months to investigate the claim and decide whether or not they believe they are liable.
In most cases, the other party admits liability and proposes a settlement, at which point we can begin to negotiate over the compensation you should receive. Alternatively, they may deny liability and contest the claim, at which point we will proceed to court. We will continue to negotiate until we reach the court date in the hope that we can secure fair compensation as early as possible.
If we cannot reach a suitable settlement, we'll prepare your case for court using the evidence we have gathered, and represent and support you during the proceedings.
When your claim is successful, you'll receive your compensation either in a lump sum or as a first instalment. If you have urgent financial needs, we may be able to secure interim payments, which means you'll receive a portion of your compensation early. For claims made under a no win, no fee agreement, you'll pay your legal fees at this stage.
