Types of personal injury claims we handle

We represent clients across Scotland in a wide variety of personal injury claims. Below are some of the most common types we assist with:

Public and Premises Accidents
Slips, trips and falls on public footpaths, car parks, roads and private properties can cause serious injury. We will assess your case and help you claim compensation where maintenance or safety standards were not met.

Accidents Abroad
Accidents that happen overseas – whether on holiday, a cruise, a flight or during business travel – can be complex, but our lawyers know how to navigate cross-border claims efficiently.

Group and Class Actions
If you have been injured due to negligence and others were similarly affected, you may be able to bring a collective claim. Our team will guide you through the group action process from start to finish.

Dog Bite Claims
If you were bitten or attacked by someone else’s dog, you may be entitled to compensation. We can help you hold the dog owner accountable for your injuries and associated costs.

Occupiers’ Liability Claims
If you were injured on someone else’s property because it wasn’t properly maintained or made safe, you may be eligible to make a claim for compensation.

Historic Child Abuse Claims
We understand the sensitivity and emotional impact of abuse claims. While compensation cannot undo the past, it can help with treatment costs, counselling and financial stability.

Child Accident Claims
If your child has been injured due to another person’s negligence, our team can guide you through the process of securing compensation to support their recovery and future needs.

At Calio, our priority is to provide clarity, compassion and confidence as we help you move forward after any type of accident or injury.
