I recently had the pleasure of working with Mr Mahmood from Wildings Solicitors for the purchase of my home, and I cannot recommend their services highly enough. He was incredibly knowledgeable, pleasant, and helpful throughout the entire process. They ensured everything went smoothly and kept me informed every step of the way. Their dedication and professionalism made a significant difference, and I am extremely grateful for their hard work.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Farzana, the receptionist, was exceptionally efficient and friendly. Soyod, our solicitor, dealt with what needed to be done in a timely fashion and made sure we had copies of what had been completed. I was very pleased with the service and will use this branch again for future needs.

Understanding a Fatal Accident Claim

While no amount of money can compensate for your loss, a claim can provide financial security and a sense of justice. Claims are typically brought by the executors of the Will and the dependants of the deceased under the Fatal Accidents Act 1976.

Who Can Claim?

The law defines 'dependants' who can claim for their loss. This includes a spouse or civil partner, a cohabiting partner of at least two years, children, and other close family members who were financially dependent on the deceased.

Statutory Bereavement Award

A fixed sum set by law, payable to a very specific class of relatives (primarily a surviving spouse or parents of a minor) to acknowledge the grief and suffering caused by the death.

Loss of Dependency

This is the most significant part of a claim. We help calculate the financial support and loss of services (such as childcare or DIY) the family would have received, ensuring their future is financially secure.

Your Questions Answered

How much does it cost to make a fatal accident claim?

We are transparent about costs from the start. We will provide a clear estimate of fees and discuss all funding options with you. Please note, we do not offer 'No Win No Fee' agreements, which ensures our advice remains impartial and focused on your family's best interests. In many successful cases, the legal costs are recovered from the negligent party.

How long do we have to make a claim?

There are strict time limits. Court proceedings must typically be issued within **three years** of the date of death. It is vital to seek expert legal advice as early as possible to ensure there is sufficient time to fully investigate the accident and build a strong case for you.

What is the difference between an Inquest and a compensation claim?

An Inquest is a legal inquiry conducted by a Coroner to determine the cause of death. It does not decide on blame or compensation. A compensation claim is a separate civil legal process to establish fault and recover financial damages for the dependants. Evidence from the Inquest can often be crucial in supporting a successful compensation claim.
