Fatal Injury Claims

We understand the traumatic impact of a fatal injury and work sensitively and effectively to help those affected pursue compensation and prepare for the future.

Our personal injury solicitors specialise in fatal accident claims. If the fatality was someone else's fault, the family of the deceased may be able to make a fatal accident claim.

Our dedicated solicitors act on a no win no fee basis. We have pursued successful fatal accident claims to compensate for fatal injuries sustained in:

Mesothelioma and medical negligence

We also pursue fatal claims on behalf of families whose relatives have died because of an industrial disease, including mesothelioma and lung cancer resulting from asbestos exposure.

Our medical negligence team regularly wins substantial claims for the families of those who have died following medical negligence.

Fatal injury claim

We understand that making a personal injury compensation claim following a death is an extremely difficult process. For families left without financial support, however, it may be vital to provide for the future of children and other dependents.

We are widely experienced in dealing with complicated and high-value claims and always act with compassion and respect.
