We pride ourselves on achieving excellent results for clients. Our aim is to secure early admissions and interim payments to enable clients to access rehabilitation, treatment and equipment. Every year we help families purchase adapted properties at early stages so we can organise therapy and rehabilitation regimes together with care packages. In other cases, we have secured early interim payments so injured clients can attend rehabilitation units to learn to cope with injuries.
Clients are offered assistance from an in-house Support and Rehabilitation Co-Ordinator, a service to assist with accessing benefits and rehabilitation whilst the litigation is ongoing. We offer a holistic service working with other specialist teams including Public Law, Court of Protection and investment services which achieves an integrated and coordinated approach in managing a client’s interim payment and advising them on the range of issues that arises at this stage of their claim.
