New Help Hub For The Seriously Injured
Solicitor Kate Morey provides an overview of the new Association of Personal Injury Lawyers’ Severe Injury Help Hub.
The Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) are a not-for-profit organisation representing injured people. Their members are lawyers dedicated to protecting and enhancing access to justice for victims of personal injury.
JNP Legal’s Nelson Office is an APIL accredited office and members of our personal injury department are accredited with APIL as Litigators and Senior Litigators. We are very proud of our long standing relationship with APIL.
APIL’s work is varied and includes lobbying Government as well as working alongside relevant stakeholders to ensure injured people’s rights are protected. It runs campaigns to change the law where appropriate in favour of injured people, and also to improve the services available to them.
It also provides extensive, and first class training to its accredited personal injury lawyers to ensure that they are best positioned to fight for the seriously injured in society.
As part of their ongoing work offering valuable services to victims of personal injury, they have created a ‘Severe Injury Help Hub’. This can be accessed via their website at www.apil.org.uk/severe-injury-help-hub
The resource is aimed at members of the public who have been seriously injured and their family members. It provides valuable information to those in the aftermath of suffering such injuries.
Information is provided on a range of support services available, and includes signposting to relevant charities, the availability of specialist support services and contact details for accredited lawyers.
The resource is to be updated on a regular basis to ensure the most up to date and helpful information can be provided.
JNP Legal fully support APIL’s aims and objectives in ensuring access to justice for victims of personal injury.
Here at JNP Legal, we are passionate about making sure that the seriously injured receive prompt and effective access to justice. We very much welcome the introduction of the Serious Injury Hub.
