How we can help you with personal injury claims in Pontypridd

Starting a personal injury claim in Pontypridd

When assessing a personal injury claim, it is first important for our team to gain a comprehensive understanding of your situation and how the accident occurred. We will establish the facts of the matter during an initial consultation, then using this information to inform you whether making a personal injury claim with a good chance of success would be possible.

Our personal injury claims solicitors in Pontypridd will clearly explain how the process will work and provide you with all the information you need to decide whether you would like to proceed.

No win, no fee personal injury claims

At Devonalds, we hold the belief that every individual deserves fair compensation in the event of an injury caused by the negligence or malicious actions of others. To ensure that financial constraints do not get in the way of a personal injury compensation claim, we offer representation on a no win, no fee basis to many of our clients.

We make it a priority to provide clarity at the onset regarding the suitability of a no win, no fee arrangement and thoroughly explain our fees, and how they work. This ensures that you are fully aware of the terms and conditions of our agreement.

Our fees are transparent and reasonable, which means you can rest assured that you will receive the maximum benefit from your compensation.

Proving a personal injury

To claim personal injury compensation, it will often be necessary to prove your injury and that the actions or negligence of others caused or worsened it.

This will mean relying on various pieces of evidence, such as:

  • Hospital and medical records
  • CCTV evidence
  • Witness testimonies

Our personal injury solicitors in Pontypridd will compile all of the necessary evidence that will be required to build your case. We can then proceed to present this evidence in a clear and concise manner, working alongside you to help you achieve the compensation you deserve.

Time limits for personal injury claims in Pontypridd

Traditionally, an individual has three years to start a personal injury claim. This time limit usually begins from the date of the accident, however in some cases it may be from the date you first become away that the injury was the fault of another party.

There can also be exceptions to the three-year rule, such as:

  1. The injured person was under 18 years old at the time of the accident: In such cases, the three-year time limit starts from the date of the injured person's 18th birthday, meaning that they have until they are 21 to make a claim.
  2. The injured person lacks mental capacity: If the injured person lacks the mental capacity to make a claim, there is no time limit for making a claim. The time limit only starts once they have regained their mental capacity.
  3. Industrial disease claims: In cases of industrial disease, where symptoms may not become apparent until many years after the exposure to the harmful substance or condition, the three-year time limit starts from the date the injured person became aware or should have become aware, that their condition was caused by their work.

Valuing a personal injury claim

There are several factors that will affect how much you could receive from a personal injury claim. For example, the severity of your injuries, the impact they have had on your life overall and the level of negligence of the party responsible for your injuries.

Generally, compensation is intended to cover things such as medical expenses, lost income and any other expenses that are related to the injury you received. Furthermore, compensation can be awarded for non-economic damages such as pain and suffering, loss of quality of life and any emotional distress incurred.

Every case will be unique, and the compensation given will vary greatly. If you’re considering pursuing a personal injury claim, our personal injury claim lawyers will be happy to advise you and help guide you through the process.

Managing personal injury compensation

Once you have secured compensation for a personal injury, it is essential that you take the time to think about how you will manage the compensation so that your needs will continue to be met in the future.

Our personal injury solicitors in Pontypridd can work alongside you to help manage the compensation you are awarded, including how to ring-fence funds so that you are not blocked from any means-tested benefits you may otherwise be entitled to.
