When you live with a chronic illness like CRPS it is important to access support from those who really understand your condition. The expertise and experience of your legal representation can significantly impact the outcome of your case.
Brian Barr Solicitors specialise in CRPS. Our solicitors have over 40 years’ of experience in this field, supporting sufferers through legal cases and obtaining high settlements. We understand CRPS, the complexity of these cases, are aware of what sufferers go through, and we are here to help you navigate the process of making a CRPS claim. Here’s a step-by-step guide of what to expect:
- Initial assessment – we will discuss the details of your unique case, including how your CRPS developed, the impact it has had on your life, and any evidence you may already hold, allowing us to assess the strength of your claim and advise you on the next steps.
- Submitting the claim – we will then liaise with the other party or insurance provider.
- Gathering evidence – we will gather comprehensive evidence to build a strong case (this will include medical records, expert opinions, witness statements, and financial records). We have a network of specialist experts to help with this.
- Valuing the claim – assessing the value of your claim involves considering various factors such as Pain and Suffering, Loss of Earnings, Medical Expenses, as well as Future Losses. We recently secured an extraordinary settlement of £700,000 for a client who was initially estimated to receive no more than £20,000 with her previous solicitors.
- Negotiation and settlement – the defendant may offer to settle the claim out of court. We will negotiate on your behalf to ensure you receive a fair and just settlement.
As specialist CRPS lawyers, we understand that the stress that comes with bringing a claim can be overwhelming. We always attempt to resolve these cases out of court. However, if going to court becomes necessary, we have the experience, knowledge, and expertise to fight for you, and obtain the outcome you require.
It is vital you instruct a solicitor who truly understands the complexities of CRPS and has the experience to handle such challenging cases, in order to get the compensation you deserve.
