The loss of a loved one is devastating, in particular, if it is as a result of an accident or an incident where either an individual or an organisation may be at fault.

Getting compensation as a result of such an accident or incident cannot change what has happened or make it right, but bringing a claim may enable family members to gain answers to questions, or maybe obtain some sense of justice for what has happened.

If a family member has therefore suffered an injury/illness that led to their death, be it as a result of a road traffic accident, an accident at work, or an accident on public or private property, you may be able to bring a claim for financial compensation with the help of one of our specialist lawyers.

Fatal accident claims

Our legal specialists can guide and assist you in terms of:

  • Any Police, Health and Safety Executive, or other investigation into the death of a loved one.
  • Any Inquest that may then take place.
  • Any claim for compensation that may be made against the relevant individual/organisation.
  • Dealing with the administration of the estate should you require this assistance.

No matter what the circumstances of the accident, we understand how significant the potential impacts of one are. This is why we are dedicated to providing tailored, straightforward advice, enabling you to reach the outcome you’re looking for and get back to focusing on recovery.

To support your recovery, our lawyers ensure any legal aspects of your road traffic accident compensation claim are dealt with swiftly and effectively.
