What to know about Personal injury lawyers
A personal injury claim in the UK is a civil claim in negligence: someone owed you a duty, breached it, and you were hurt as a result. Proving the injury is rarely the hard part. Proving breach, and linking the injury to it, usually is. That is why medical evidence and an accurate account of what happened matter more than the strength of anyone's feelings about the accident.
