If you've suffered an injury in an accident that was caused by someone else, it's important to know that you may be entitled to compensation. Being involved in an accident can lead to pain, suffering and financial losses, ranging from prescription charges to the loss of earnings if you have to take time off work to recover. Compensation is designed to pay back the money you have lost, enable you to access high quality medical treatment and put you back into the position you occupied before the accident took place.
Switalskis is a law firm that has a strong track record of successful claims. Our specialists in York can help you to secure the compensation you deserve with a friendly and professional approach that keeps your claim moving forward. We have a range of expertise in claims for road traffic accidents (RTAs), injuries in the workplace or during employment and incidents in public places.
Seeking compensation isn't only about meeting your financial needs. It's a chance to receive justice and accountability from someone whose actions led to your injuries. Reach out to Switalskis to find out how our personal injury team can support you. Call 0800 138 0458 or use the form on our website to contact us today.

While all personal injury claims are different, there are a few key milestones that must always be followed. The whole process can take from a few months to more than a year, but the personal injury team at Switalskis will always fight to secure compensation for you as soon as possible, without compromising on how much you receive.
A no win no fee claim starts when you contact your local solicitors at Switalskis for a free consultation. We'll discuss the circumstances of your accident, and our personal injury lawyers will advise you on whether you are entitled to compensation. If you are, we can get started straight away.
The most important thing we need for a successful claim is evidence. This could include medical records regarding your injury, an accident report, CCTV footage, statements from eyewitnesses to the accident and reports from experts if there are health and safety questions to answer.
Your solicitor will send a letter of claim to the person or organisation responsible for your accident and their insurance provider. This could be your employer, if your accident happened at work, another road user for an RTA, or your local council if your injury occurred in a public place.
The defendant will have a few months in which to investigate the case and decide how to respond. In most cases, they will accept liability and we can begin to negotiate over how much compensation you should receive.
If the defendant won't accept their liability or offer a fair settlement, we'll take the matter to court. Our York personal injury lawyers will represent you in these proceedings, deliver the evidence we've collected and fight to secure the damages you're owed.
A successful claim will result in compensation, either as a lump sum or a series of regular payments. You'll also pay your legal fees at this point if you claimed under a no win, no fee agreement.
We know that the claims process can be daunting, but we're here to make it as smooth as possible.
