Qualifying for personal injury compensation

People who have been diagnosed with certain injuries or illnesses such as hand-arm vibration syndrome may still be eligible for compensation even if the condition developed as the result of events that happened years ago. The date you are informed of your diagnosis is what starts the three-year time limit in such cases.

To win a Widnes personal injury case, your lawyer must demonstrate:

• You were owed a duty of care by the defendant
• That duty was breached by the defendant
• The defendant's breach caused your injury or illness

Beginning your claim sooner will enable the solicitor to collect useful supporting evidence.
