5 Questions you must ask before choosing your Motorcyle Claim Solicitor
When you are trying to choose your motorcycle claim solicitor, where do you start? All solicitors will have the basic legal skills, but how do you know who will really fight your corner and ensure your interests are put first and foremost? Who will treat you as if you are their only client and ensure you recover as quickly as possible?
We have put together this key guide to ensure you satisfy yourself that you are dealing with an expert motorcycle solicitor!
1. Will I receive all of my compensation?
Whilst many motorcycle claim solicitors or claims companies putting you in touch with a solicitor often advertise no win no fee, they do not explain to you that sometimes they will make deductions from your compensation at the end of a claim. You must be absolutely confident that they will not take any of your compensation if you win your claim.
All 1stClaims solicitors will ensure you receive 100% of your compensation if your claim is successful with no deductions!
2. Does the motorcycle claim solicitor have any extra qualifications?
Whilst each solicitor is qualified and regulated, often you will find your claim will be dealt with by junior staff with no qualifications whatsoever. Make sure you ask if your claim will be dealt with by a solicitor.
In addition to this, a solicitors practice that has a specialist personal injury department should have at least one member of the Law Society's Personal Injury Panel which proves their expertise.
All 1stClaims solicitors have at least one Personal Injury Panel Member.
3. What will happen if I need treatment and there is a waiting list?
A specialist motorcycle claim solicitor should be able to offer you private medical treatment to speed up your recovery and often your return to work. They should be able to offer you treatment wherever you are in the UK.
1stClaims has access to physiotherapists, chiropracters and other treatment providers across the UK.
4. Will claiming cost me anything (small print included)?
Claiming should not cost you a penny, yet many solicitors and claims companies will charge you for some items, here is a list of the things to look out for:
- Insurance to protect you against the costs of claiming. (1stClaims solicitors will pay this for you if it is needed)
- An administration fee to the claims company (1stClaims do not charge you any fee. We are paid a referral fee by the solicitor which they pay out of their marketing expenses – NOT out of your compensation)
5. Will I get anything over and above the normal service?
In addition to your claim being handled by an expert motorcycle claim solicitor, you should also be offered private medical treatment, replacement car hire if necessary. 1stClaims offers you this and much more.
