Claims Process

Once we have obtained a full set of Medical reports we will then provide you with advice as to what your likely compensation award will be in terms of monetary value.

At this point generally the Insurance Company will have also made an assessment in relation to your claim, subject to your instructions we will seek to negotiate a settlement with the Insurer which is usually the most cost effective way to resolve your claim.

Provided we can get the Insurer to agree to an amount that is reasonable then we will recommend settlement to you at which time we will be able to advise you of the exact amount that you would receive clear of all refunds should you proceed with the settlement.

Often times we negotiate settlements directly with the Insurer over the telephone however in some cases it is necessary to participate in a conference with the Insurer which you and your Personal Injury Lawyer will attend.

We find that the vast majority of cases settle at this point as mediation results in a positive result for our clients without the expenses of litigation. At the end of the day however the decision regarding settlement will always be yours and yours alone.
