The Personal Injury Claim Process
When you contact the team here at Calio, we will guide you through the claims process.
We offer support from the start of a claim through to aftercare, and as a full-service law firm, we consider the wider legal context – for example, whether a personal injury trust would be beneficial to protect a lump sum payment. However, we understand that you will have some questions about the process of making a claim.
How do I make a personal injury claim?
For each claim, we appoint a dedicated case handler. When you first contact our team we will seek to understand as much about your circumstances as possible, and will ask you a number of questions about exactly what happened to you, the injury you have suffered, the treatment you have received and the ways in which you have lost out financially as a result of your injury. We will then begin drafting your claim to be intimated to the party that caused your injury.
We will also gather evidence to support your claim. This may include things such as witness statements, photographs of the accident site, medical reports, medical or expert opinion, copies of any accident or police reports and anything else we believe will assist in making your claim.
It is always our priority to reach the best possible settlement without delay. In most cases, we aim to reach a negotiated settlement out of court. We may also be able to obtain interim payments for rehabilitation or care, before settlement of your case.
The expertise of our people is complemented by our state-of-the-art case management software. This ensures integration of all the relationships and processes involved in a claim, however complex, and enables us to provide efficient reporting throughout. We know how important your case is to you, and so we will always keep you informed of how your claim is progressing.
