Victims of accidents and medical negligence now have a new tool to help them calculate how much compensation they could claim using a ‘no win no fee’ agreement.
Coles Miller Solicitors have launched a new injury compensation calculator on their website. Its five simple steps take just minutes to complete:
- Select Gender
- Select Injury
- Loss of Earnings
- Other Costs
- Start Claim
In just a few clicks victims can log: the location and severity of their injury; what it has cost them in medical, travel and car repair expenses; the impact on their ability to earn a living.
The aim is to help victims gain a better understanding of how much they could claim to compensate them for their injuries and any treatment that might be required.
Coles Miller Partner Adrian Cormack said: “Some people who have suffered don’t realise how much compensation they could be entitled to claim to help them recover from their injuries.
“The defendant’s insurer may try to persuade them to accept a damages settlement that is too low or they may underestimate how much treatment could be required.
“Either way, we want to ensure that victims are paid the injury compensation they rightfully deserve. We offer a free initial interview and can assess claims by phone or in person,” he added.
Mr Cormack – head of the Personal Injury Department at Coles Miller – has been a member of the Law Society’s Personal Injury Panel since it started. He is also a Senior Litigator and an Accredited Brain Injury Specialist with APIL (the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers).
Coles Miller handles personal injury and clinical negligence claims from all over the country. The firm has offices in Poole, Bournemouth, Christchurch, Broadstone and Wimborne.
