How To Choose An Industrial Disease Solicitor
There are many industrial disease solicitors listed on the Internet, most of whom ask that you fill in an online form to establish your claim or ring to speak to an adviser. This is a good way of getting a feel for whether your case is a viable one and is convenient to those who are unable to get to a solicitors firm. Once again make sure that you choose a solicitor who has dealt with successful claims like yours before you commit.
Every year solicitors inform the SRA or Solicitors Regulation Authority of which areas they are currently specialising in, so when you have found an industrial disease solicitor it is wise to check their expertise in this area of law. The SRA can tell you which are accredited firms holding practising certificates, and inform you of law firms in your local area which can deal with your case. The SRA represent all firms from single lawyers to large firms and oversee that all those they represent uphold the code of conduct.
You can also ask your local Citizens Advice Bureau for advice on which solicitor to choose, but an easier way to establish a good representative who has experience in industrial disease is to contact a support group that relates to your condition. These can be found online in the form of charities and often in blogs that relate to your specific condition.
For example a quick search on the Internet brings up multiple support groups across the country for asbestos related diseases; contacting one of these groups or charities will enable you to assess which industrial disease solicitors in your area have helped others in your situation. Contacting those people whose cases were successful may be a fruitful lead, though it is advisable to do this through the group that they are attached to. Once you have been given a name, you should organise a meeting with that solicitor to see if their level of support and understanding is right for you.
