Should you decide to pursue a claim on behalf of a person who has been involved in an accident that ended fatally, our team can assist. We have an open and friendly approach, they provide exceptional service.
We steer bereaved families through the many resulting consequences that can follow.
We can assist with advice for you about the Coroners’ Court, as well as the Criminal Court when a prosecution is being brought. As well as this, we can assist with probate or obtain a grant of representation when there is no Will.
One option is to claim a Bereavement Award under the the Fatal Accidents Act but this is not straightforward and the maximum award is currently £15,120.00. Blame in full or in part must be accepted and strict criteria about who can claim the Award apply, however the accident was caused. We will legally assess the circumstances of the incident and your family's financial circumstances.
We will establish:
What role your loved one played in financially supporting other family members
What might they have spent on themselves and contributed to
How might their work have progressed and income increased over time
What did your loved one do around the house that now you will need someone else to do and may now need to pay for
When a person under 18 has died, we will also consider if any award needs to be approved by the Court.
If you would like to talk to us about your case, please do contact us today.
