I recently concluded a claim where I acted on behalf of a client who was involved in a very nasty motorcycle accident and sustained serious injuries leaving him confined to a wheelchair.

As a result of his injuries he was unable to do things for himself that most of us take for granted.

 With the holiday season well and truely underway many people will be heading off for a well earned break either here in the UK or abroad. 

It is important to be prepared on holiday and not to expose yourself or your family to the dangers of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.

It can happen to the most careful of us when we least expect it…

You could be in a supermarket, driving the car or simply walking the dog through the park, when suddenly you have an accident or suffer an injury through no fault of your own.

Whether it is a trip or fall over an uneven kerb or a road traffic accident it is important that you know what to do to help your chances of making a successful compensation claim.

Below we have put together our 5 tips for what you should do if you have an accident:

A dog is to be put down after it attacked an expert who had been called in to prove it was not dangerous.

The owner had asked an animal psychologist to examine his German shepherd which had attacked four children and two men in two years.

Recently car manufacturers have been placing the utmost importance on improving vehicle safety through the analysis of accidents.

This approach has led to advances in passive safety technologies, such as the concept of omni-directional compatibility, pedestrian injury-lessening vehicle bodies and front seats based on the WIL (Whiplash Injury Lessening) concept. Headrests have been developed to reduce the risk of whiplash injuries sustained during rear-end collision.

Pavement Kerb Accident Claims

A woman who fell after stepping in a hole in the road while pregnant has been awarded £3500 in damages.

 At Pinto Potts we specialise in Personal Injury Claims throughout the UK.

We have won millions of pounds in compensation payments for thousands of people all over the country who have been injured through no fault of their own.

We are delighted to lend our support to the local campaign to save Aldershot’s West End Centre.

Slip & Trip Accident Claims By Simon Lipscombe

An owner or person in control of any area where people are invited to enter are under a legal duty to ensure that those visitors are safe.

If they cannot avoid all dangers, they must at least take reasonable steps to ensure that the visitor is sufficiently protected from or warned of the danger.
