Compensation Claim
Making a compensation claim can be a harrowing ordeal on top of an injury or illness sustained through the fault of someone else, which is why you need an excellent lawyer to help you. Whether your claim is for compensation due to a work-related injury, or if it occurred as a result of a road accident, a trip and fall incident, or medical negligence, the person, company or organisation has to have insurance to cover these events. Be aware that the insurers have some pretty tough lawyers working hard to deny compensation claims. And at PK Simpson, we’re fully cognizant of the fact that insurance companies are notorious for trying everything possible to get you to settle your compensation claim out of court, and for the minimum possible amount. We know all the tricks of the insurance trade, and we work tirelessly to see that every claim avenue is covered and every report is written to support your claim. And we win more than 99 per cent of the time!
