WHAT IS A TRIP ACCIDENT?

After speaking to one of our defective pavement accident claims specialists we will put you through to one of our expert solicitors, they will discuss the claim further with you and will answer any questions you may have, the No Win No fee agreement will be explained to you in simple terms and your claim will then be set up. Your solicitor will then make contact with the at fault insurance company usually the local council and initiate the claim.

According to Scottish Law, you have 3 years in which to intimate a car accident claim with the at fault party, we advise the claim should be intimated as soon as possible.
