BRINGING A PROFESSIONAL NEGLIGENCE CLAIM

The aim of the courts in England and Wales is to put the innocent party into the position they would have been had the negligence or breach of contract had not occurred. There is no automatic right to compensation. To succeed, we need to prove that the professional (or professionals) was negligent or in breach of contract.

To do that, you’ll need professional negligence solicitors who have the expertise and experience you need. You’ll need the experts at Bell Park Kerridge.

WHAT IT WILL COST

In many cases, the Court will order the losing party to pay the winner’s costs. It is up to the Court to decide how much of your costs you can seek to recover from your opponent and we’ll then claim your costs from the loser, in addition to any damages.

If your business claim is unsuccessful, then you will normally be liable for our costs as well as those of the other party. There is always a risk in professional negligence matters which is why it’s so important that you get the best possible advice on your chances of success and the likely damages recoverable before making any decision on whether to proceed with a claim or not.

We always aim to be as flexible as possible with business clients in professional negligence matters and would be happy to discuss your options of funding a claim, which include:

  • Legal Expenses Insurance;
  • Hourly rates for agreed levels of investigation and advice;
  • Fixed price quotations for agreed levels of investigation and advice.

We will at all times ensure that any costs incurred are proportionate to the amount of the claim. As we work closely with all of our clients, you can also be assured that we’ll keep you updated on progress with your claim, including with regard to any impact on costs.
