Tragically, many fatal accidents occur each year on our roads, at work and in other circumstances. These accidents have a devastating effect on the families and friends of the accident victims, often causing great financial hardship due to loss of income for their dependents.
Fatal accident claims are often complex and are brought on behalf of the Estate of the Deceased under The Fatal Accidents Act 1976, and certain family members or dependants may be entitled to pursue a claim.

No Win, No Fee Fatal Accident Claims Explained
We handle many personal injury claims on a No Win No Fee basis, also known as a Conditional Fee Agreement (CFA).
This means you pay nothing if your claim is unsuccessful. If your claim succeeds, your opponent will usually cover most of your legal costs, and a success fee will be deducted from your compensation.
We share the risk with you, meaning you only pay if your claim is successful. We will explain all funding options, your chances of success and how to maximise your compensation before you decide whether to proceed.
To discuss your options, arrange a free and confidential consultation with our solicitors by calling 0191 5666500. There is no obligation to make a claim, and our initial advice is free.
