Personal Injury Solicitors in Chichester

Chichester is a cathedral city located in West Sussex, along the A27, which connects it to the M27 and M3 motorways. The city is home to St Richard’s Hospital and the University of Chichester.

Compensation claims in Chichester can involve road accidents involving drivers, cyclists, or pedestrians; slips and trips on pavements or in shops; and workplace accidents in farming, hospitality, or construction. Solicitors also act for visitors hurt while on holiday and in industrial disease, serious injury, child injury, and fatal accident claims for bereaved families.

Claims are usually funded through a no-win, no-fee agreement. If a claim is successful, a success fee is deducted from the compensation, up to the maximum set in the agreement. If the claim is unsuccessful, the client usually pays nothing. Claims must usually be started within three years of the accident.

A solicitor can assist by gathering evidence, arranging medical reports, and dealing with the insurer or employer.
