A person injury could be a physical or psychological injury caused by third person. In situation where your injury was not your fault and occurred due to the negligence of others, then you can be entitled to compensation. Even if the injury is not somebody’s direct responsibility, it is possible to make a claim if there has been negligence, either on the part of an individual or a company. What types of Personal Injury Claim we do? Common personal injury claim types include: • Accidents at work – in accordance with figures from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), there are nearly 80,000 reportable accidents at work each year. Accident at work personal injury claims may include seeking compensation for back problems caused as a result of poor manual handling policies, falls from a height, or incidents involving dangerous machinery. • Accidents in public places – This can include government-run buildings or council-owned property such as parks and communal areas like high streets. Slips, trips, and falls could be a case for compensation. • Accident in shops and supermarkets – Whether because of things like wet floors, faulty doors, or broken shelving, injuries in stores, shopping centres, and supermarkets could be cause for compensation. • Dog bite claims – Dog owners can be liable if their dog bites you and causes an injury.

Wills & Probate

March 14, 2019

Our Private Client team are specialists in all aspects of private client services including: Administration of Estates/Probate Deputy Applications Estate Planning Powers of Attorney Wills We offer a bespoke service taking time to make sure we have a good understanding of each client’s family and financial situation to enable us to advise on how best to frame the Will to protect family assets, consider options for mitigating IHT and to provide estate planning solutions. With ever changing family structures whether for unmarried couples or second marriages it is even more important that Wills are structured to protect the family and to prevent disputes arising in the future. Clients often state that they want ‘simple’ Will leaving assets outright to the surviving spouse or partner but are this entirely sensible particularly where one party has children from a previous relationship? What if the survivor remarries risking family assets passing elsewhere, is dependent on full time care in the future or simply changes their Will to benefit others?  We can provide a legal advice on asset preservation structure designed to protect the surviving partner but to also ring fence the capital of the first to die. We combine our specialist knowledge and years of experience with a sympathetic and sensitive approach, when administering estates. We can give a full administration service including acting as your executors if required so that you are aware that your wishes will be carried out and to deal with all tax aspects of the administration which also include administering any ongoing trusts for example where there are minor beneficiaries or vulnerable beneficiaries. If you require further details as to our services then please contact us on 0203 488 0953 or request a free call-back using our online enquiry form.
