process of making a claim

Below is the process of making a claim following an accident abroad.

Contact us for your free initial consultation as soon as possible on 023 8085 7330 or e-mail us at travelinfo@bllaw.co.uk.

step one

We listen to your complaint, assess your right to compensation and the prospect of success. If the decision to go ahead is taken, we discuss the most appropriate way to fund your claim, including our ‘no win no fee’ agreement.

step two

We match your case to the lawyer that is best qualified to deal with your particular complaint, and the country where it occurred. The preparation of the case begins, assembling evidence and, where necessary, consulting experts and overseas lawyers.

step three

Your claim is served on the defendant and we commence communications with their lawyer or insurer. We also provide regular reports to you, including a periodic full review of the likely prospects of success, timescale, and legal costs.

step four

A negotiated settlement that satisfies you is reached, or the case proceeds to court.
