Government Advise: Mistaken
A Government website at https://www.gov.uk/compensation-after-accident-or-injury is misleading and not the correct advise, remember the present Government brought reforms to limit claims under lobbying by the Insurance Industry. The site advises:
Write a letter, complain or try mediation.
You can get compensation by taking legal action, but it could cost you money and you may not win your case against the person or organisation to blame.
WRONG: No win No Fee means you have nothing to lose in contacting Claim Today in a good claim time to make your claim and advise you!
Writing a letter or making a complaint
If it’s not a serious injury, you may be able to solve the issue by writing a letter or making a complaint – use the complaints procedure if there is one.
Explain what went wrong and tell them how much compensation you want or how they can make up for the injury.
WRONG: The Insurance Company will not respond or will not reply adequately, they wish to avoid paying you proper compensation and you will not be aware of what you are entitled to claim – an expert Solicitor with 25 years experience at Claim Today will ensure you are compensated properly and fully.
Using mediation
You may want to use a mediation service to negotiate a settlement.
WRONG: The Insurance company do not offer any formal mediation and will have expert claims handlers and solicitors to fight your case, you cannot mediate against such an unequal position
