Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a solicitor to make a personal injury claim?
You do not have to use a solicitor, but personal injury claims can be complex. A solicitor can advise on liability, obtain medical evidence, assess the value of your claim under Scots law and help ensure you are not pressured into settling before the full impact of your injuries is known.Why is it not always a good idea to deal directly with an insurer?
Insurers aim to resolve claims quickly and control costs. They are not acting on behalf of the injured person. Without independent legal advice, it can be difficult to know whether an offer reflects ongoing symptoms, future treatment needs or long‑term financial loss.What if an insurer contacts me after I have instructed a solicitor?
If an insurer contacts you after you have a solicitor, you should not discuss liability or settlement. Instead, the insurer should be directed to deal with your solicitor, who can manage communication and protect your position.What is the Compulsory Pre‑Action Protocol?
The Compulsory Pre‑Action Protocol applies to most Scottish personal injury claims worth £25,000 or less. It sets out how claims should be investigated and negotiated before court proceedings begin and encourages fair, informed settlement.Why is independent legal advice important?
Independent legal advice helps ensure that decisions are made in your best interests. It reduces the risk of accepting an early or undervalued settlement and ensures any compensation reflects the full impact of your injuries.What happens once a solicitor is instructed?
Once a solicitor is instructed, they notify insurers, investigate liability, gather evidence, arrange medical assessments and assess the value of the claim. They also handle negotiations with insurers and provide advice on settlement at each stage.Will I have to go to court?
Most personal injury claims in Scotland settle without going to court. If court proceedings are necessary, your solicitor will explain the process clearly and guide you through each step.Why choose Jackson Boyd?
