Read Our Lidl Accident Claims Guide To Find Out How Much Can You Claim For a Accident In Lidl?
Although we understand why you want to know how much compensation you can receive for your Lidl accident, every compensation claim is unique. The amount that you receive will depend on the exact nature of your injuries and how severe an impact your Lidl accident has had on your life.
Compensation claim amounts for all personal injuries (including Lidl accidents) are divided into two main parts. The first part of the claim is based on the amount of pain and suffering you have experienced. Because this is such a subjective assessment, there are guidelines put forward by the national governing body (the Judicial College). These give a range of amounts that are usually paid out following each specific injury. The ranges can be very wide, however. This is because they are designed to ensure that the exact nature of your injury can be taken into account. Unfortunately, this can make it very difficult for anyone without experience to know where in that range their injury is likely to fall. Our highly trained personal injury claims solicitors have years of experience in making Lidl accident claims and are able to give you an accurate assessment of where in the range your injury is likely to fall.
In addition to this, you are also entitled to compensation for any financial costs, expenses or liabilities that you have incurred as a result of your Lidl accident. This is designed to ensure that you are not left financially worse off as the result of a Lidl accident that wasn’t your fault. This can include covering you for the loss of any earnings you could have expected during any period you have needed to be off work, or for the loss of potential future earnings, if your injuries mean that you are unable to return to your former profession. You are also able to claim the expenses associated with any additional medical care or rehabilitation that might have been necessary and hard to access via the NHS. For those who have very serious injuries, you are entitled to payments to allow you modify your home or vehicle to help you to live as close to the life you had before as possible. In general, you are entitled to claim back any expenses that you have had that would not have occurred had your Lidl accident not happened.
With the help of our expert team of personal injury claims solicitors, you can be confident that your Lidl accident claim includes everything that you are entitled to, making sure that you have the financial support you need to be able to concentrate on making a fully recovery.
How Long Does It Take To Make A Lidl Accident Claim?
It can be hard to know how long a particular Lidl accident compensation case will take, as some can be settled very quickly, while others will take much longer to be decided. We know that you want to put your Lidl accident behind you as quickly as possible, so we do everything that we can to resolve your claim as quickly as possible.
At the very fastest, cases can be resolved in just a few months, and some can even take just a matter of weeks. For a case to be settled this quickly, the other side will have accepted liability very quickly, without the need for lengthy investigations and evidence-gathering. They will usually be claims for smaller amounts of money, and so associated with less severe injuries. With less money at stake, the other side is less likely to consider it worth their while to string out the negotiations to encourage you to accept a lower offer.
More complicated cases include those where the other person does not accept that they were liable for what happened to you, or if multiple people were all partially to blame. In these situations, your case may take far longer to be resolved and for you to get the compensation you need. If your case has to go to court, it will also take much longer to be completed.
No Win No Fee Lidl Supermarket Accident Claims
Because we know that the period following a Lidl accident can be financially very difficult, we offer our services on a no win no fee basis to almost all of our clients. This means that you won’t need to find the money to pay for legal fees to start your Lidl accident compensation claim.
Our no win no fee agreements mean that you can get the best legal advice and assistance, without having to pay anything up front. You will only pay for our services once we have obtained the compensation you deserve. If we are unsuccessful in obtaining compensation for you, you won’t have to pay anything. We also cap our fees as a minor percentage of your compensation payment, meaning that you will always be significantly better off as a result of winning your compensation claim and that you will always receive the lion’s share of your payment.
There are a very few circumstances under which it is not possible for us to offer a no win no fee agreement. If your Lidl accident comes into this category, we will let you know as soon as possible and will discuss alternative funding options with you.
There is no reason to delay making your Lidl accident compensation claim. If you have suffered a Lidl accident that wasn’t your fault, call us or claim online today.
Will I Still Have To Pay Costs For My Lidl Accident If I Lose My Claim?
We guarantee that you will not be asked to make any payments whatsoever if we are unable to win you the compensation you deserve. The most important thing to understand about making a no win no fee Lidl accident compensation claim is that it is utterly free from risk for you. If we don’t get you the compensation you deserve, you won’t have to pay a penny. This means that you can be completely sure that you will never be left worse off as a result of seeking justice for your accident.
Is There A Deadline For Me Making A Lidl Accident Compensation Claim?
Compensation claims for Lidl accident should be made as soon as possible after the accident or injury that led to them. Except in extremely exceptional circumstances, all claims should be made within 2 years of the accident. If you are coming close to the two year time limit, it is essential that you contact our personal injury solicitors as soon as possible.
There are certain injuries or situations where there can be an advantage to waiting a little while before making your claim. This allows all of your symptoms to fully develop and means that you have a better idea of the full range of your injuries and how long you are taking to heal. It is still worth talking with our ekyword1 as soon as possible, however. This doesn’t start any formal process and it allows us the time to help you make the best decisions and to get you the compensation you deserve.
How Do I Make A Lidl Accident Compensation Claim?
Making a Lidl accident compensation claim for any accident or injury you may have sustained follows the same basic process.
The first thing to do before starting your Lidl accident compensation claim is to make sure that you have arranged the legal support and advice that you will need. To discuss your claim and your options, call us or claim online. Working with our team of dedicated personal injury claims solicitors gives you the best possible chance of getting the compensation payment you deserve.
Our first step is to write to the person responsible for your Lidl accident, explaining that you are making a personal injury compensation claim, that you consider them to be liable (the legal term for being to blame) and giving them a deadline by which to respond.
If the other party refuses to accept that they were to blame in your accident, we will find and send evidence to support your claim. This might include photographs of the location in which your accident took place, a copy of the company’s accident book, witness statements and anything else that might be relevant. For workplace accidents in particular, it is very unusual for liability to be disputed for long.
When we have established with the other party that they were to blame for your accident, we will then begin negotiations to decide how much compensation is fair following your injuries. There are many tactics and techniques used by the other side to try to convince you to accept a lower amount than you are entitled to. Whether to accept or reject an offer of compensation is always up to you, but our expert guidance and advice will allow you to be sure that the amount you agree to is a fair reflection of what you are entitled to.
In almost all cases, it is possible to reach an agreement to settle your case. This is especially true for accidents at work, as it is not in the interests of the insurance company to force your personal injury compensation case to court. If it is not possible to agree liability or to find a compensation amount that both sides find air, it may be necessary to ask a judge to decide how much compensation you deserve.

How Do I Know Whether I Am Entitled To Compensation After My Lidl Accident?
It can be difficult to know whether you are entitled to make a Lidl accident compensation claim. There are few conditions that must be met for you to make a compensation claim.
The first and most basic requirement for you to make a Lidl accident compensation claim is that you must have suffered a Lidl accident. You are not able to make a claim for a near miss, where you narrowly avoided a Lidl accident. You are also only able to claim if were in some way damaged or harmed as a result of what happened. If you were very lucky and avoided all injury, you are not able to make a compensation claim. Your injuries can be mental as well as physical, but you can only claim for what you actually experienced.
The next requirement for you to make a Lidl accident compensation claim is that there must have been someone else to blame for what happened to you. This person or organisation does not need to have taken specific action, or to have been present when your Lidl accident happened, but they must have had some form of responsibility for your welfare. For accidents that took place in the workplace, this can be very straightforward to establish, as your employer has a statutory duty of care.
The person who was to blame for your Lidl accident must have been able to predict or foresee this event occurring. This is not saying that they must have known that it would happen, but it must have been sufficiently plausible that a reasonable person in that role should have been able to anticipate something along those lines taking place.
Finally, they must not have taken sufficient measures to protect you. This could be in terms of putting in measures to avoid your Lidl accident, or in terms of making sure that the consequences are as mild as possible.
If you have suffered a Lidl accident and you believe that someone else was to blame, we are here to help you put together the best possible Lidl accident compensation claim. Call our experienced team of expert personal injury claims solicitors or claim online today to see how we can help.
What To Do Immediately After Your Lidl Accident
If you have suffered a Lidl accident, the most important thing is always to make sure that you get the medical treatment you need. Once you know that you are safe and being taken care of, there are a few things that can help to get you the compensation you deserve.
The first thing is to make sure that you have a clear understanding of what happened and why. In order to make sure that you remember everything in detail, it can be extremely helpful for you to write down everything you can recall about the circumstances surrounding your Lidl accident. If possible, write down every detail, including the names of everyone who saw what happened. It is hard to create a comprehensive list of which details might be relevant for your Lidl accident, but each accident and injury is unique. Anything you can think of is worth noting down.
It can also be valuable to make sure that you have the names and contact information of anyone who may have witnessed your Lidl accident. Having witnesses to back up your account of what happened is strong evidence, and the more witnesses we are able to contact, the stronger your case will be. You may wish to ask them to write down everything that they remember of the circumstances surrounding your Lidl accident, but we are happy to deal with this for you if you prefer.
You may also want to try to obtain photographs or videos which might be relevant to your case, especially of the location in which your Lidl accident occurred, provided it is safe to do so.
All of these pieces of supporting evidence can help your case, but we know that there are many situations in which you may not be in a position to provide any of these. Our Lidl accident compensation claims specialists are here to help, and this includes gathering the evidence needed to support your claim. The most important step you can take to make sure that you receive the compensation you deserve is to call us or claim online.
