Why Choose 1stClaims?
1stClaims has been helping accident victims recover compensation for personal injury following asbestos and other industrial disease accidents since 2005. Whilst this in itself is not a long period of time one of our directors was a personal injury claims solicitor and has 14 years of experience. We use his experience to select the best industrial disease claim solicitors for you.
How can 1stClaims help you with your Industrial Disease Compensation Claim?
All of our solicitors have many years experience of handling industrial disease claims. From asbestos to mesothelioma claims and repetitive strain injury to knee bursitis, our solicitors have extensive experience of the law that is put in place to protect you. If you have suffered an injury due to someone else failing to protect you when they had a duty to do so, you may well be entitled to claim.
All 1stClaims solicitors are:
- Members of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) and
- Members of the Law Society's Personal Injury Panel
What does it mean if a solicitor is a member of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers?
Members of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) prove their commitment to the victims of personal injury claims as the organisation is dedicated to improving the service provided to victims of accidents. Recently they have launched a scheme called NO LOGO, NO GO to attract awareness to the expertise of their members.
What expertise does a member of the Law Society Personal Injury Panel have?
If you ask us to help you with your claim, a member of the Personal Injury Panel will oversee the whole of your claim. Again this is another sign of quality. To obtain membership of this panel solicitors must show a high level of expertise in personal injury cases. They are not awarded this membership unless they can demonstrate that:-
- They have practised as a solicitor for at least three years; and
- They have helped the victims of a large number of personal injury claims over this period of time; and
- At least 10 of these cases have reached the stages of a hearing date being set, with at least two involving disputes on the question of liability (ie who was to blame for the accident).
In other words, they have to be experts in dealing with industrial disease claims. This expertise is ready and waiting to help you.
