Fatal Accident Claims
Taking the strain when you suffer the devastating loss of a family member
We understand that it is hard enough coping with a death in the family without the added burden of having to make a fatal accident claim. This is particularly so if it is the main bread winner who has died causing immediate financial pressure on the family. If you do find yourself in this situation please contact us straight away so that we can help take some of the strain off you.
When there is an accidental death as a result of negligence there are two possible claims:
- For the personal injuries and losses which the victim suffered before they died
- For compensation for their death under the Fatal Accidents Act 1976
We will deal with your claim compassionately yet professionally. These claims often involve complicated calculations of what the deceased would have gone on to earn had they survived. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail which is vital if you are going to recover every penny you deserve.
If you need representation at an inquest we can assist with arranging that. If you need help with getting a grant of probate or dealing with the deceased’s estate our team of Trusts and Estates lawyers can also help with arranging that.
