Personal Injury Claims We Handle
There are many situations where an injury can lead to a claim. As personal injury solicitors in Manchester, we can help with a range of personal injury matters, including workplace accidents, public liability claims, road traffic accidents and other types of personal injury.
Every claim is different and the fact that you’ve been injured doesn’t automatically mean that you’re entitled to compensation, so it’s important to establish what caused the accident and who was responsible. We can look at the circumstances with you and give you a clearer idea of where you stand.
Road Traffic Accident Solicitors in Manchester
Road accidents happen in many different ways, and the injuries can range from relatively minor to life-changing. If another road user was responsible for your accident, you may be entitled to compensation. Our road traffic accident solicitors in Manchester are here to help, whether you’re a driver or passenger, or a cyclist, motorcyclist or pedestrian.
You might be able to claim if you were hit by another vehicle, injured as a passenger or involved in an accident caused by someone else’s driving.

No-Win, No-Fee Personal Injury Claims
The cost of making a personal injury claim is a common concern, especially if you’re already dealing with lost income or other expenses. Depending on your circumstances, we might be able to act for you under a No-Win, No-Fee agreement. This means you generally won’t have to pay our legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful. If your claim succeeds, a fee may be deducted from your compensation.
There can also be other costs or conditions depending on the circumstances of your claim.
Before you agree to anything, we’ll explain how everything works and what it could mean for you financially, so you can make an informed decision about whether you want to proceed.
How the Claims Process Works
If you’ve never made a personal injury claim before, we’re here to help. We’ll explain the process as your claim progresses, rather than leaving you to work out what’s happening yourself.
1. Initial details
We’ll start by taking details of the accident and your injuries.
2. Evidence gathering
If you decide to proceed, we’ll gather the relevant evidence. Depending on the circumstances, this could include medical records, photographs, accident reports, witness statements and information about any financial losses you’ve suffered.
3. Response
The person or organisation you are claiming against will then have the opportunity to respond.
4. Settlement or dispute
If responsibility is accepted, your claim may be negotiated towards a settlement. If liability is disputed, the claim can become more involved and we’ll explain what this means for you.

Personal Injury Claim FAQs
Do I have to have suffered a serious injury to make a claim?
No, there isn’t a requirement for an injury to be life-changing before you can make a personal injury claim. What matters is whether another person or organisation was legally responsible for causing your injury.
How long do I have to make a personal injury claim?
The time limit depends on the type of claim and your individual circumstances. In many personal injury cases, the usual limitation period is three years from the date of the accident or the date you became aware of your injury.
How long will my claim take?
There’s no standard timescale and a straightforward claim, where responsibility is accepted, may be resolved sooner than a claim where liability is disputed. We’ll keep you updated and let you know if there are any significant developments affecting the progress of your claim.
How is personal injury compensation calculated?
There’s no single figure that applies to every injury. Compensation takes the injury, financial losses and expenses into account.
