Our Nottingham Personal Injury Claims process
Starting a Personal Injury claim can feel like a big step, especially when you’re still coming to terms with the physical and emotional impact of what’s happened. That’s why here at Nelsons, we always aim to make things as straightforward as possible. From the very first conversation, our Personal Injury Lawyers in Nottingham take time to understand what you’ve been through, explain your options in plain English, and outline exactly what to expect next.
Once you decide to move forward, here’s how the process typically unfolds:
1. Initial consultation
We begin with a discussion about your accident and injuries. This gives us the opportunity to understand your situation and provide an honest assessment of whether you have a claim.
2. Evidence gathering
A strong claim is built on solid evidence. We’ll gather all the relevant documentation, from witness statements and accident reports to medical records and photographs, to ensure we have a clear picture of what happened and who’s responsible.
3. Independent medical assessment
You’ll meet with an independent medical expert who will assess your injuries and prepare a detailed report. This helps us understand the full impact of the incident, both now and in the future, and ensures your compensation reflects your needs.
4. Negotiation and resolution
We’ll handle all communication with insurers and other parties, negotiating on your behalf to achieve the best possible outcome. Most claims are settled without the need for court proceedings, but if your case does go to trial, our team will represent you with professionalism and determination.
Throughout the process, you’ll have a dedicated Personal Injury Lawyer in Nottingham keeping you informed at every stage. We believe in clear communication – so you always know what’s happening, why, and what comes next.
