At Barr Ellison Law we represent victims of all types of accident, but our primary focus is on those victims who unfortunately sustain a catastrophic personal injury. Being involved in a serious accident causes devastating changes to people’s lives. This situation is very likely to continue for many years imposing major stress on the injured person and their family members.

Nothing can fully compensate for the devastating effect of a serious personal injury. But where someone else is to blame, a financial settlement can give all-important recognition of responsibility – and provide the practical means for you to rebuild your life.

Even when the law is on your side, getting that compensation cheque can be a long, drawn out affair, but our experienced Personal Injury Team will support you every step of the way. We have an office at Addenbrooke’s Hospital*, one of the country’s leading NHS trusts, putting us in direct contact with the people who need us most.

Take a look at our brief guide – How to Make a Personal Injury Claim in 5 Steps – to gain an overview of the whole process.
