Client Reviews

“I suffered life changing serious injuries in an accident at work and was assisted by Bradley Wright. He successfully pursued a claim on my behalf and conducted matters in an extremely professional, sympathetic and determined manner. I would strongly recommend his services.”
— Mr B
“I would just like to congratulate a member of your team! Edwards Duthie Shamash are the solicitors that are used by The Communication Workers Union/Unionline. I recently had an accident at work which resulted in me suffering from a bad back because of an overweight bag. Natalie from the claims department was great in agreeing a liability settlement and a very reasonable amount of compensation for my injury. She always responded to my emails or phone calls which is rare in some law firms and was always polite and informative. I would definitely recommend Edwards Duthie Shamash to others and hopefully I won’t but if I ever needed to use them again I will do!”
— Matt Bellamy

“Unfortunately I suffered life changing injuries as a result of being struck by a car. Bradley Wright was recommended to me and handled my case throughout. He provided me with support every step of the way and dealt with my claim in an extremely professional and personal manner. He made sure that I received adequate rehabilitation and treatment. Each step of the legal process was explained clearly and he was always available to provide myself and my family with advice and updates. I received a positive outcome to my claim and would strongly recommend Bradley Wright to handle any catastrophic personal injury claims.”

“My case was moving along very slowly, almost a year had past and hardly anything had happened. I was only getting e-mails late on Friday night so I was unable to get any contact and support throughout. I had almost given up that nothing would ever happen. I must say when Myriam Musumari then took on the case I was really impressed with how quickly she got to grips with the case. She contacted me regularly through e-mail and I was always up to date with anything that had happened. Even when I was being slow on some of the paperwork Myriam sent me reminder after reminder to get the paperwork in. I was so used to the person before on the case taking ages and not hearing anything from it, I was amazed at the speed in which Myriam has worked through the case and always being friendly, approachable and professional throughout. She has also managed to secure me an amount much greater than I had ever expected so I can only send her my thanks.”
— RB
“I was unfortunate to be hit by a car on a zebra crossing last November. Edwards Duthie Shamash Solicitors were recommended to me & Myriam Musumari was allocated to deal with my case. The service that was provided to me was first class. Each step of the way everything was explained to me clearly, this was done mostly via email which suited me as I had something to refer to & it’s not always convenient to take and receive phone calls. Updates & any queries I had were dealt with clearly & promptly. I received a positive outcome and could not recommend this company enough.”
— NT

I would definitely recommend Edwards Duthie Shamash for any legal requirements.”

“I suffered a serious injury at work and was successfully represented by Bradley Wright.  He handled my truly difficult case in a compassionate and determined manner, and not only managed to persuade the Defendants to accept liability, but recovered a substantial settlement on my behalf.  I would have no hesitation in recommending his services. ”
— Mr BB
“My family were involved in a life changing incident and received assistance from Bradley Wright. He handled our case in an extremely compassionate and professional manner. He fought vigorously to obtain the best possible outcome. I would totally recommend him as a personal injury Solicitor.”
— Ms T
“This whole experience of making a PI claim following an accident at work I had October 2019, and which my employer admitted liability has been a long and torturous journey. Often very frustrating, and the near recovery from various medical procedures much longer than I expected. From start to finish this 3 year process has been subject to constant delays, some inevitable as medical process needed to take there appropriate course. I acknowledge we've had the challenges of Colvid to contend with during this time, but nevertheless its been a constant battle with various medical professionals. Everyone bar one person has proven to be inefficient. The only exception has been the service provided by Myriam, who has been excellent and who has always acted promptly and professionally providing sound advice and guidance. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Myriam's services to anyone who might need some legal support.”
— Ian

How much compensation am I entitled to for a personal injury claim?

Each personal injury claim is different and the amount of recoverable compensation will depend upon the severity of your injuries, whether you are partly responsible for the accident, how much you have lost in earnings and whether you have made a recovery or whether you require further treatment.
 
Please click our personal injury compensation calculator to obtain further information about personal injury damages.
 
If your claim is successful you will receive one total sum that is arrived at by combining two heads of damage, namely general damages and special damages. General damages is an award of money that is given to you purely in relation to the injury you have suffered and takes into account pain and suffering, loss of amenity, severity of injury and whether any ongoing treatment and care is required.
 
Special damages are all those losses and expenses you have incurred as a direct result of the accident including loss of earnings, loss of pension, medical treatment, ongoing care and rehabilitation, travel expenses and modifications to your home.

Time limits for bringing a personal injury claim

You usually have three years in which to make a personal injury claim.  This is usually three years from the date of your accident or three years from the diagnosis of a workplace illness.  On occasions, the three year period will also run from the date on which you learned that your injury or illness was caused by somebody else. 
 
There are some exceptions to the above period, and therefore it is best to get in touch with us as soon as possible.  This will give our personal injury solicitors every opportunity of obtaining the relevant evidence that they need to successfully make your claim.  We will be able to advise you of the exact legal deadline and will still be able to help you if the deadline is approaching.
