Personal Injury Solicitors in Barking

Barking is a riverside town in east London, mostly north of the A13, with the North Circular running through the Roding Valley. Its industrial past included jute spinning, paint and chemical works, a coal-fired power station at Creekmouth and the car plant at nearby Dagenham, so compensation claims in Barking can include asbestos-related illness, hearing loss and other industrial diseases. Solicitors also handle collisions on the A13 and North Circular, including those involving lorries, as well as workplace accidents in warehouses and on building sites. Slips or trips in the town centre and its shops, serious injury claims, claims for children and fatal accident claims are covered too.

Claims can be brought on a no-win, no-fee basis. If the case is won, a success fee is taken from the compensation, within the limit in the agreement; if it is lost, the client normally pays no fee. The time limit is usually three years from the injury or diagnosis.

Solicitors can trace old employers’ insurers, obtain medical evidence and value lost earnings and care.
