John Whitcroft Solicitors
I offer a Personal service to all my Clients to ensure they receive full and fair compensation for their injuries and losses, helping them recover from a frequently distressing experience. I have more than 25 years experience in handling personal injury claims. Most of my Clients come to me directly or they have been referred to me by former Clients or other professionals.

I do not pay insurance or claims management companies to refer Clients to me. I find it very important to meet with my clients in person, obtaining their own first-hand account of their accident and resulting problems. People are often unaware of the full extent of their injuries and, in particular, a psychological injury is easily overlooked. Many people are also unaware of the full extent of their financial losses and what exactly they may claim for.

Unfortunately, this kind of attention to detail and meeting with the client, which is especially vital in complex cases or when liability is denied, is something other legal providers dealing with large volumes of claims may not always offer.

There are many ways in which an employer may be held responsible for an injury suffered by an employee in the course of their employment.
Broadly, they fall into the following categories:.
An employer may be held vicariously liable for the negligent conduct of another employee who causes an accident.
If you have had an accident or suffered an injury you should make sure to report it as soon as you can as sometimes employers may deny that you have had an accident in the course of your employment with them.
I have recently seen a growing number of accidents on buses where people have been injured when their bus stops abruptly.
Sometimes the accident is the fault of the bus driver where the bus may have collided with another vehicle due to negligent driving of the bus driver.
In this type of claim your claim is against the bus company.
However, there are also situations where the bus driver has had to stop abruptly due to the negligent driving of another driver who may have pulled out carelessly in front of the bus.
Many people may be unaware that where a child has had an accident they generally have until the age of 21 within which to bring a claim.
Where an adult has had an accident usually an adult must issue proceedings in Court within three years from the date of the accident if their claim has not already been settled.
Therefore your child or even you yourself if you have had a serious accident during your childhood and you have not as yet reached the age of 21 can still bring a claim.
Where a child is a Claimant under the age of 18 they need a "litigation friend" to help them bring the claim.
Vehicles turning left across the path of the cyclist unaware or ignorant of the existence of the cyclist.
However your accident may have occurred, unfortunately, it is the cyclist every time who will suffer, often quite seriously.
With any Bicycle Accident Claim, I will help you recover compensation for your injuries, repairs to your bicycle or the value of your bicycle if it is a write-off, loss of wages (past and future), the cost of any care you may have required, and any other financial losses you may have or will incur in the future.
If so, you may be entitled to bring a claim against the Criminal Injury Compensation Authority.
This scheme covers a wide range of crimes ranging from the victims of the London bombings to individuals mugged or assaulted in the street.
It is essential that you notify the police as soon as possible of the assault upon you as the delay is a possible ground for refusal of your application.
All criminal assault claim applications should be filed within two years from the date of the assault.
Generally, under personal injury law, the victim has three years within which to file Court proceedings.
