Personal Injury Claims
In 2019, there were 113,654 personal injury claims in the UK. Of these around 50% used a legal representative to ensure that their claim received the right level of care. Of that 50%, around half used both their insurance company and a legal advisor and half again used just a legal advisor to represent them.
