OUR PERSONAL INJURY SERVICE

PERSONAL CARE AND ATTENTION
Providing good legal advice and assistance is only part of Paul Norton & Co's objectives. We recognise the often highly traumatic nature of our clients' problems and believe in providing close personal support, and making ourselves available, which includes visiting our clients in their homes or hospital when required.

SPECIALISATION
Because of the size of our specialist unit and our personal expertise, we have an impressive track record in the settling of claims. We are able to keep up to date with the constant technical changes in law and practice to the advantage of our clients.

KEEPING IN TOUCH
Lawyers are often criticised for not keeping in touch with their clients. Paul Norton & Co recognise the importance of this and have a formal policy of keeping clients up to date with the progress of their case.

EXPERT CONTACT
It is essential in personal injury cases that "expert" opinion on medical matters is obtained. We also often require the opinions of other technical experts in order that the true cost of any loss is fully identified. The choice and availability of the experts used can often make an important difference to a case. Over the years we have developed excellent relationships with a huge network of medical and other experts who can supply the best form of evidence to support your claim.

FREE INITIAL INTERVIEW
We recognise that many people are deterred from seeking advice about possible compensation following an accident because of the costs they believe they will incur. With this in mind we have established a Free Initial Interview Scheme.

If you or a member of your family has been involved in an accident then you will be entitled to a free initial meeting at which we will be able to make a preliminary assessment as to the extent to which we can help, and answer your many questions.

We also operate a 'no win - no fee' arrangement.

CONFIDENTIALITY
However difficult or embarrassing the injury or complaint, you can be assured that your matter will be dealt with with the utmost confidentiality and tact. Our clients know that this is the policy of the practice. These rules prevent us from disclosing our impressive client list. All of our clients, private and business, receive the same personal attention from our highly qualified team.
