What Does A Personal Injury Solicitor Do?
Brent personal injury solicitors
Personal injury lawyers are solicitors, that specialise in helping people claim compensation, for harm that they have suffered due to the actions of a third party. The solicitor handles all of the preparation work for the claim, and then will attempt to negotiate a settlement with the defendant’s legal team. Furthermore, if an out of court settlement cannot be agreed, the solicitor will then handle the court case. During which, a decision will be made on whether compensation will be awarded, and how much.
Legal Expert is a specialist team of accident and injury lawyers who can help people to claim the compensation they are entitled to. To learn how we can do this for you, call us on the number at the end of this guide.
How Our Personal Injury Solicitors Can Help Claimants

- A solicitor will be able to help you prepare for your claim, gathering evidence, etc.
- A solicitor should be able to arrange for you to have a free medical examination in Brent, to prove the seriousness of your injury or illness.
- A solicitor can advise you on the types of damages you could potentially claim for, and the level of compensation which would be suitable.
- A solicitor will be experienced in negotiating with the defendant’s legal team, meaning a greater chance of achieving an out of court settlement.

Legal Expert can offer all of the benefits listed above, to people who use our national accident and injury claims service. Give us a call on the number at the end of the page to find out how this service works.
Eligibility To Make A Personal Injury Claim
In order for a personal injury solicitor to process a claim for you, you need to be eligible for compensation. In a previous section, we covered the types of harm that could lead to a person having a valid claim. Generally, if a third party is even partially the cause of the harm you have suffered, then you should be able to claim against them. Examples of a valid legal entity that you could claim compensation from include:
- An NHS or privately-run hospital or clinic.
- A dental practice.
- A beauty salon.
- Your local library.
- A supermarket.
- You landlord or housing
As you should be able to see by now, you can claim against almost any private individual, company or organisation. If you are unsure who would be liable for compensation in your own claim, please give Legal Expert a call on the number at the bottom of this guide, and one of our team will let you know.
Five Things Which You Should Look For When Making A Personal Injury Claim
Finding a personal injury law firm good to process your claim takes some effort. However, if you vet each legal firm you are considering by asking them the following five questions, the task should be a little easier.
- Can you offer to take on my claim under a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA)?
- Can you explain everything about my claim using simple English with no legal jargon?
- Can you help me prepare for my claim, and let me know what evidence would be useful to submit?
- Can you arrange for me to have a free medical examination in Brent, to support my claim?
- Have you won a similar claim to my own in the last year?
Legal Expert can answer yes to all of these questions. If you would like to know how we can help with your claim, speak to one of our team on the number at the end of the page.
Should I Trust Solicitor Reviews?
If you are struggling to select a good legal firm to handle your claim, personal injury solicitor reviews can be a good starting point for creating a shortlist. If you do find some good reviews online, be sure to check the following facts:
- Was the claim successful?
- Did the reviewer recommend the solicitor?
- Did the solicitor offer a fee structure conditional on their success?
- How much did the solicitor charge as their fee?
- How old is the review?
- Does the review cover a claim similar to your own?
Facts like this will help you sort the good form the bad, but it could till take some time to compare a number of legal firms. Legal Expert can help with this. If you call us on the number at the bottom of this guide, one of our team will go over your options with you, and offer some free legal advice on how best to proceed with your claim,
Do I Have To Use A Local Solicitor?
When choosing a personal injury solicitor, London residents often wrongly believe that there is some legal reason that they have to use a local legal firm. They don’t you can use any lawyer you like, it doesn’t matter at all where they are located in the UK.
