Personal Injury
Our experienced Personal Injury Lawyers focus on practical representation at every stage of the legal process.
At GT Stewart, we act for individuals and families who have been injured in an accident that was not their fault.
A personal injury claim is a key mechanism in holding a party accountable for injuries caused to individuals that simply should not of happened, or could have been avoided.
Our specialist solicitors are always on hand to ensure that individuals are adequately compensated for their injuries.
What is Personal Injury?
A personal injury claim arises when an individual suffers harm due to the fault of another party, whether that be recklessness, negligence or intentional actions. A claim enables and individual to seek compensation for their losses from the responsible party.
An individuals ‘loss’ is encompassing to include financial loss, physical loss or emotional loss.
Unlike criminal cases, which aim to punish the wrongdoer in the eyes of the criminal justice system, a personal injury claim is classed as a civil action centred around making the injured person ‘whole’ again and compensated their losses.
In short, if you have suffered injury in an accident that is not your fault – WE CAN HELP!
Common Types of Personal Injury Claims
Personal Injury claims are not limited to a specific ‘type’ and can result from a wide range of incidents. Examples include:
Road Traffic Accidents: You may be eligible for compensation if you were injured whilst driving, a passenger, a pedestrian, a cyclist, or travelling on public transport.
Workplace Accidents: Your employer has a legal duty to ensure and provide a safe environment, no matter your profession or work sector.
Accidents in Public Places: You may be eligible for compensation if you have tripped, slipped or fallen in a public place such as a supermarket, the street etc.
Accidents at Home: If you have had an accident in your home that is not your fault. This can be a result of your Landlord’s negligence or even a hired contractor.
The above are just a short list of the realms of personal injury work are specialist team are able to undertake. If you are questioning whether your accident may be something we can deal with then do not hesitate to get in touch with our legal team who are always willing to assist.

Frequently Asked Questions
The process of making a claim is quite straightforward however every claim is treated on a case by case basis, but below is a generalised summary of the lifespan of a personal injury case.
STEP 1: Get in touch with us. Our trained receptionists will take basic details, which will then be passed on to one of our legal team (or one of the legal team will consider your online notification form)
STEP 2: You will be contacted by one of our experienced team members in the personal injury department to obtain more information, and confirm if we are able to help. There will be no obligation on you to make a claim.
STEP 3: If we are able to help you will be invited in for a meeting at our offices for a detailed discussion of your case and the funding of it. You will be spoken through and given a copy of the ‘No Win No Fee Agreement’. If you are unable to attend our offices for any reason we will, if appropriate, have discussions by way of telephone or arrange a home attendance in special circumstances.
STEP 4: After the meeting a Senior Solicitor will review the report of the meeting and proceed with sending a letter to the opponent making your Complaint/Claim.
STEP 5: The Defendant will have 21 days to acknowledge this letter, and 3 months thereafter to provide their formal response.
STEP 6: We will enter into discussions and negotiations with the opponent in an attempt to settle your claim including trying to obtain any documents, CCTV or other evidence in the possession of the opponent that we think might help your case and also discuss with you whether there are any witnesses or any other evidence that we need to collect on your behalf to take the case forward, including evidence of your injuries.
STEP 7: We will keep the case under review and if at any stage we decide that you are unlikely to succeed with the case, we will advise you of that (and close your file- in these circumstances you pay nothing).
STEP 8: If it is not possible to settle the case by negotiation with your opponent ,and we think your case is a strong one that should be taken to Court, we will issue proceedings for you in the appropriate Court claiming compensation and pursue the case through the Court for as long as we believe that you have a reasonable chance of winning the case.
The outcome we are always working towards is securing you compensation for your losses.
No. We work on a no win, no fee basis. If you do not win your claim, you’ll pay nothing to anyone – it is as simple as that.
The only condition where this could be affected is if you have been dishonest in what you have told us and have refused to follow our advice.
Whilst there can also be rare exceptions to our no win no fee agreements, you will be advised of these before your claim starts.
In most cases, you will have three years from the date of your accident.
There are some circumstances where different rules apply, and our team will be happy to discuss these with you.
For example, if you were under 18 at the time of your accident the three year window will only begin on your 18th birthday.
As you will see from above, there are realms of different accidents that may fall under the umbrella of personal injury.
It really is as simple as; if you have been injured and it was not your fault – the likelihood you can claim is high.
When looking at settlement figures and what you CAN claim for the scope of your injuries will often be assessed through an independent medical report.
Other losses you can claim for include pain and suffering, loss of earnings (past and future), any rehabilitation, medical expenses, travel costs and more.
Basically - any type of loss you have experienced as a direct result of your accident, you can usually claim for.
Funding Your Case
Our personal injury cases are funded on a ‘No Win, No Fee’ Basis.
This means exactly how it sounds – if you do not win, then you do not pay us anything!
You can contact us with the comfort of knowing you will never be at financial risk when you claim with us.
No Win No Fee Agreements (known as a Conditional Fee Agreement) means that there are no upfront legal costs, and you generally wont pay our legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful. If your claim succeeds, fees are agreed in advance and will be explained clearly before you proceed.
This type of funding is available to everyone, regardless of income.

He always took the time to explain exactly what was happening, what my options were and what to expect at each stage of the case. I never felt left in the dark, and knowing I had someone with his experience and knowledge fighting my corner gave me a huge amount of confidence.The preparation and attention to detail that went into my case were second to none. It was clear that Bubs genuinely cared about achieving the best possible outcome for me rather than treating me as just another client.I’m extremely grateful to Bubs and the team at GT Stewart Solicitors for everything they did for me.

"I had Kevin Williams from GT Stewart not only represent me during a legal matter, but genuinely support me throughout what was an incredibly difficult two years.From the very beginning, I felt like I was in safe hands with Kevin. He was there every step of the way, and his support and reassurance genuinely helped keep me going during some very difficult periods. I always felt that Kevin was on my side and that he genuinely cared about helping me through the situation, rather than simply treating me as another case.I truly believe that thanks to Kevin, a lot of the stress surrounding the matter was reduced because of the way he handled everything. From arranging dates and times for court appearances, organising my bail, keeping me informed and making sure I understood what was happening, Kevin was consistently professional, approachable and supportive.What stood out most to me was not just Kevin's legal knowledge, but the way he treated me as a person. He was someone I could rely on when things became difficult, and having that support made a huge difference over the two years.I cannot thank Kevin enough for everything he has done for me. His professionalism, dedication, communication and genuine support were exceptional, and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who finds themselves needing legal representation.An outstanding solicitor and, more importantly, someone who genuinely makes you feel that you are not facing things alone.Thank you, Kevin, for everything."
