If you have been injured in an accident that was someone else's fault, our experienced team of personal injury solicitors can advise you on making an accident compensation claim. Under the Limitation Act 1980, there is generally a three-year time limit to make an accident claim.
If a claim is not formally brought before the expiry of this limitation period, then it will become statute-barred, which means that you will be unable to pursue the claim any further.For further information regarding time limits for accident claims, please watch our video below. Below, we have answered some frequently asked questions in relation to accident compensation claims.

If you have been injured in an accident which was not your fault, you may be entitled to make a road traffic accident claim. Regardless of the reasons for the accident (poor driving, weather or the condition of the road), if you were not to blame for it then you may be able to claim for compensation for your injuries.

Exposure to asbestos can cause a wide range of illnesses, such as asbestosis, lung cancer, mesothelioma and pleural plaques. Since the 1970's there have been strict regulations regarding the use of asbestos and it is possible to make asbestos claims relating to exposure dating back many years. A person who has been exposed to asbestos during their life may not discover that exposure to asbestos might have caused them harm for a very long time.

Michelle Pollard and Chris helped us with three residential remortgage cases recently and the entire process was very smooth and only took 4 weeks which in the current Covid environment is nothing short of a miracle! Very happy with the professional services of Nelsons' residential conveyancing team and Nelsons in general and would definitely recommend them to anyone who's looking to purchase/ remortgage their properties.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality
I had reasons to use the services of Nelsons Solicitors starting three years ago. The Legal Executive, Emma Howard, involved in my case is a credit to the company. Her professionalism, perseverance and sound advice all came together resulting in a recent positive outcome. Thank you

Please think twice before consulting this firm of solicitors , I wouldn't want anyone else to go through what I did . I initially consulted a paralegal concerning a Coroners inquest into the death of my wife and after that I contacted her concerning a potential judicial review concerning the matter, of which I had a three month window of opportunity. The paralegal in question unnecessarily wasted two months of my precious time , by dragging it on and poor communication . When I was finally contacted by her I was angry that this was only to tell me that in her opinion I had no case and the Coroner

Recently was adviced to used Nelson's solicitors and Melanie Morton by a family member. She was great and talk me through everything explained certain things using more understandable terms. Which meant I understood much more clearly. (As law jargan can be daunting if you don't fully understand) Truly thankful for the advice and support. Thank you guys.

As an ex-estate agent i have worked with many solicitors over the last 25 years and this lot are the most in-efficient and unbelievably bad bordering on incompetent.
My purchase with NO UP CHAIN and NO DOWN CHAIN + funds in place still dragging on coming up to four months, Try to call them you get automatic voicemail, leave a message ? no point , no one returns your call, try to complain as i did and it obviously annoys them as the service has got even worse .
Very poor customer service , no urgency, no updates unless you really press them, just an annoying lack of concern, of course after nearly
