Questions?

Our prospective clients usually have a lot of questions that relate to their Personal Injury claims, but the questions we hear most often relate to when a client can expect compensation, costs to be incurred and duration of the process.

Here is some guidance:

When do I receive my compensation?

Each matter is unique and time frames vary depending on the complexity of a matter, court processes to be followed and willingness of the opposing party to engage in settlement.  Our team of legal practitioners strive to finalise matters as soon as possible to ensure that our clients receive the compensation that they are entitled to within a reasonable period of time.

How much will it cost me?

Depending on the nature of the matter our services are usually offered on a contingency fee basis, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. The type of agreement entered into between the parties will be discussed in detail at the first consultation between the client and our legal representatives.

How long does it take to obtain a trial date at court?

This depends on whether the matter is to be instituted In the High Court or Magistrates Court, as each court has its own individual processes to be followed. Continuous updates will be provided as we navigate through this process.
