Claims against injury lawyers

If you feel that your personal injury lawyer has acted negligently whilst running your personal injury claim you may be able to pursue them for professional negligence compensation.

Reasons for seeking professional negligence compensation include:

  • Missing deadlines
  • Bad advice
  • Failure to follow instructions
  • Settling for less than the claim was worth
  • Not seeking available funding
