If you’ve suffered a serious injury or illness because of somebody else’s negligence at work, on the road or in a public place, it is very important to get advice and support from a solicitor at an early stage.
Our serious injury solicitors, working from our offices in Manchester and across the UK, draw on decades of experience with compensation claims for injuries to the brain, spinal cord and elsewhere. This means we can provide a clear, honest assessment of your case and prospects of success.
We are committed to achieving the best possible outcome for you so that you receive the compensation and support you need as soon as possible.
In addition to practical legal advice, we offer peace of mind to our clients that their claims are managed by a team of senior legal experts who have been through the process many times before.

Putting your health and well-being first
Securing substantial compensation for clients is, of course, important, but it is only one part of the process.
Our solicitors place equal emphasis on your rehabilitation and will ensure you have access to leading medical care from the earliest possible stage.
With our support, you will have access to physiotherapy, surgery or psychological treatment that can make a significant difference to your health and wellbeing, as well as the medical reports necessary to support your serious injury claim.
Getting a fair outcome
Naturally, you may be concerned about the financial burden that comes with being absent from work for a prolonged period. Our lawyers work directly with insurance companies to arrange an initial medical assessment, secure early interim payments and make sure that Insurers comply with every aspect of The Rehabilitation Code.
As the senior member of our Personal Injury team, Richard Wilson deals with all types of accidents and high-value compensation claims. They can meet with you at your home, at our offices, or online to advise and help you and your family after your accident.
Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as a serious injury?
Serious injuries are those that have caused a significant and long-term impact on the life of the injured person. This may include brain and spinal cord injuries, amputations, serious burns, and fatal accidents.
What is the average payout for a serious injury claim?
The average payout for a serious injury claim will depend on the nature of the injury. Typically, the bigger the impact on someone’s life, the bigger the payout. This means the variance in compensation can be wide-ranging, and looking at averages is not useful. Instead, it is best to speak with an experienced solicitor who can properly advise on the compensation you can expect.
