Personal Injury Solicitors in Bedford

Bedford is a market town on the River Great Ouse. The A421 links it to the M1 at junction 13, and the A6 and A428 serve it, with fast trains to London St Pancras and a University of Bedfordshire campus. Compensation claims in Bedford can stem from collisions on these trunk roads or around the town, including those involving cyclists or pedestrians. The town grew as an engineering centre, and solicitors handle workplace accidents in factories, warehouses and on building sites, as well as industrial disease such as hearing loss. They also deal with slips and trips in shops and public places, serious injuries, claims for children and fatal accident claims.

Claims are usually run under a no-win, no-fee agreement. When a claim is won, the solicitor’s success fee is taken from the compensation within the agreement’s limit; when it is lost, the client normally owes no fee. The time limit is usually three years.

Solicitors can gather evidence, arrange medical examinations and negotiate with insurers over lost earnings and care.
