Aberdeen Accident Claims
Aberdeen is the third largest city in Scotland with a population of around 185,000 and has been labelled the Granite City, with its sparkling granite buildings that adorn the streets of the famous ‘Granite Mile.’ The city lies 120 miles northeast of Edinburgh on the banks of the rivers Dee and Don in the middle of the northeast coast. The city has excellent rail and road links with Edinburgh just a 2 ½ hour drive away. It has one of the busiest heliports in Europe and ferry services from Aberdeen to Kirkwell.
Aberdeen is sectioned into five areas. Union Street is the gateway to over 800 shops, restaurants and bars. At the West End of the city there’s a plethora of bars and nightclubs which help to cement the city’s reputation of having a vibrant nightlife. To the south the harbour serves both the fishing and oil industries. Away from the hustle and bustle visitors can relax in the many parks that are scattered around the city. Aberdeen has the prestigious privilege of winning Britain in Bloom on no fewer than 13 separate occasions. To the North of the centre lies Old Aberdeen, King’s College and St Machar’s Cathedral. Tacischal College and the Colonnaded Art Gallery form the centrepiece of this fantastic city. A long sandy beach marks Aberdeen’s eastern border.
Visitors will be delighted with 6 distilleries that are close to the city, there’s also the Malt Whisky Trail which can be found along Speyside. There’s also the Castle Trail which takes in 11 of the grandest castles in Scotland.
If you have ever suffered a personal injury whilst in Aberdeen, then you may be entitled to claim compensation as a direct result. You have a legal and civil right to claim, a fact that passes the majority by. Under a Conditional Fee Agreement individuals can pursue a claim on a ‘No Win No Fee’ basis.
‘No Win No Fee’ means that you will not have to pay a penny in legal or court fees whether the case is successful or not. Why not consult with a variety of firms to gauge the legality of your case. A lawyer will not take your case on unless they think that the probability of winning the case is so great, that they can’t lose.
The reason that they take on the case is that if they are successful they claim the cost in full from the other party involved. The key advantage you have here is that you are safe in the knowledge that the lawyer that chose to handle your case wouldn’t have accepted it, unless the body of evidence was in your favour.
Any compensation payout you receive is likely to include remuneration for the initial pain and suffering caused, as well as any psychological impairment, such as fear of the road if you have been in a car accident. Also taken into account are medical costs/treatments fees, and any loss of earnings.
