Claim For Your Road Accident Shoulder Injury -

• 5 easy steps to take

If you’ve been in a car crash and suffered from a road accident shoulder injury, you are no doubt in great pain. As you are aware, you need the full use of your shoulders to write, type and drive – perhaps three activities that you carried out every day before the accident without even blinking an eyelid.

If the road traffic accident you were in was not your fault, you could be entitled to compensation. Here is a step by step guide to what you should do next, if you want to claim.

Step 1 – Get a free assessment of your claim

The first step in the process is to get some professional advice about whether your claim for compensation has any chance of success. After all, if your case is weak, there is little point in continuing with it. At Maximum Compensation, we can give this assessment within 24 hours of the online form being filled in, or a call being made to our free telephone helpline. We will let you have an honest appraisal of your case, and advise you about the next steps.

Step 2 – Give your personal injury lawyer all the information you can

If you decide to continue with the claim, the next step is to assist your personal injury lawyers by giving them as much information as possible about the claim. For example, you might be asked to draw a map of locations involved in the road traffic accident, or read check and sign a witness statement.

If you have already been seen by a doctor in relation to your road accident shoulder injury, give your lawyer details of the medical professional who saw you. Depending on the circumstances, you might have to attend another medical examination by a doctor who specialises such matters.

Step 3 – Await the outcome of the initial letter of claim

Once your personal injury lawyer has accumulated the evidence for your road traffic accident shoulder injury, he will write to the person who is representing the other party and notify them of your claim and its value. What happens next depends on that person’s perception of who was at fault. If they accept liability, the party responsible for your injury could offer to settle the case out of court. If not, the case will proceed to trial.

Step 4 – Negotiate a settlement

If the other party offers a settlement for road accident shoulder injury compensation, your lawyer will either advise you to hold out for a larger amount, or accept it. At Maximum Compensation, our lawyers are expert negotiators with a pragmatic approach.

Step 5 – Deal with the compensation

Hopefully you will eventually receive a cheque for road accident shoulder injury compensation. Some firms of personal injury lawyers levy a success fee on this amount, meaning that they deduct a set figure from your cheque before forwarding the remainder to you. This will have been set out in the fine print when you signed up, but it is often easy for claimants to overlook in the heat of the moment.

100% Compensation do not do this. Instead, we claim our fees from the party who has wronged you. And in the unlikely event that your claim should fail, we don’t get paid.
