Our personal injury services
Accidents, including accident at work claims, on the road, or in other public places
JNP Legal regularly helps individuals pursue personal injury claims in the aftermath of accidents that happen in a variety of settings. Whether you have been injured at work, on the road, or in any public place, our personal injury lawyers can assist. We will investigate your circumstances and establish liability, working to secure personal injury compensation for medical costs and lost income.
Injuries sustained abroad, aviation claims and accidents at sea
If you have suffered an injury whilst travelling abroad, at sea, or in an aircraft, you may still be entitled to bring a personal injury claim in the UK. Our lawyers for personal injury are experts at handling cross-border personal injury compensation claims involving airlines, international laws, insurers, and cruise operators.
Brain injuries
Brain and head injuries can have lifelong impacts on victims and their loved ones. Our specialist legal support for personal injuries includes advising on making traumatic brain injury claims, both for yourself or on behalf of a loved one who may not have the capacity to make a claim themselves. Whatever your experience and symptoms, our medical experts will assess the long-term impact and pursue maximum personal injury compensation to fund your rehabilitation, care, and support.
Child abuse
If you or someone you know has suffered or is suffering from child abuse, we can help you seek personal injury compensation for that harm. Our compassionate personal injury lawyers regularly handle claims against institutions and individuals who have failed their duty of care, acting with sensitivity to the nature of the case and a commitment to achieving the best possible outcome.
Criminal injuries
If you have been physically or psychologically harmed as a result of a violent crime, then you may be entitled to make a personal injury compensation claim through the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA). Our personal injury lawyers will guide you through each step of the process, putting together a strong application and pursuing the maximum award available for your injuries and related financial losses.
Injuries caused by harmful products
Dangerous or defective products can cause injuries and harm to consumers. When products fail to meet appropriate safety standards, we handle personal injury claims against manufacturers, retailers, and distributors.
Whether it’s unsafe toys and merchandise, faulty machinery, contaminated consumables, or other product-related issues, our personal injury lawyers work hard to hold those responsible accountable and secure high-value compensation.
Injuries sustained in prison or while in police custody
Prison or police custody environments must be safe places that protect your health and wellbeing. If you were injured due to unsafe conditions, negligence, or mistreatment, our personal injury lawyers can help you pursue a personal injury compensation claim. We act professionally and sensitively to uphold your rights and ensure that you receive compensation for your injuries.
Sports & leisure injuries
While organised sports and leisure activities are enjoyable and rewarding, sometimes accidents can happen. Whether safety measures were not properly observed, a gym accident, or there were other kinds of negligence at a leisure or sports facility, our team can assist with a sports and leisure personal injury claim.
We work to prove liability, whether that’s a coach, organiser, or the venue, and will work hard to secure your personal injury compensation for treatment, recovery, and the changes the injury may have caused to your life.
Frequently asked questions about personal injury claims
Typically, the process for making a personal injury claim begins with gathering evidence about the incident that caused your injury. This might include photographs, witness statements, medical records, and reports from relevant third parties. Your personal injury lawyer will assess the evidence for your case and advise on the likelihood of making a successful personal injury compensation claim.
If we believe that your claim is viable, your personal injury lawyer will notify the responsible party’s insurer that you intend to make a claim. Typically, negotiations will follow to seek a fair settlement. If one cannot be reached, then your solicitor may issue court proceedings to pursue your personal injury claim.
The length of time a personal injury claim takes will depend on several factors, including whether the defendant admits liability, the nature of the injuries and losses, and the evidence required.
Time limits apply, and generally, you have three years from the date of the injury to act. JNP Legal’s expert solicitors can advise more specifically on this based on individual cases, ensuring that your personal injury claim is progressed in good time.
Whilst you are under no legal obligation to work with a solicitor, having an experienced personal injury lawyer can greatly increase your chances of success. A lawyer for personal injury understands exactly how to build a strong case and ensure that your personal injury compensation claim is correctly calculated and handled professionally from start to finish.
When building a strong personal injury claim, evidence is crucial. This could include CCTV footage, photographs of the accident location, witness statements, accident report, dashcam footage and police reports.
Medical records and expert medical evidence are also needed to provide evidence of the injuries sustained, and in support of the losses suffered, it is important to retain wage slips, invoices, receipts, and bank statements.
Our personal injury lawyers offer conditional fee agreements (no win, no fee agreements) for qualifying cases.
