Personal Injury Claims, Dundee

At Jones Whyte, we know that no two personal injury claims are the same. Behind every claim is a person whose life has been affected, whether that is through physical pain, time off work, financial pressure, or the emotional toll that comes with an unexpected injury. Our team take the time to understand your individual circumstances and build a strategy that gives you the best possible chance of a successful outcome.

We handle claims across Dundee’s city centre and the surrounding areas of Tayside and Angus, covering a wide range of accident types and injury claims. Whatever your situation, our team will give you honest, straightforward expert legal advice from the very first conversation.

 

Types of Injury Claims We Handle in Dundee

Why Choose Jones Whyte as Your Personal Injury Lawyers in Dundee?

We are not a call centre or a claims management company. We are a registered law firm with the law society of Scotland and our team take the time to get to know you and your case before work any begins. When you instruct Jones Whyte, you will have a dedicated solicitor handling your claim from start to finish, keeping you informed at every stage and always acting in your best interests.

We have helped hundreds of clients across Scotland recover the compensation they deserve, and we bring the same commitment, legal expertise, and determination to every case we take on in Dundee. Whether your matter is straightforward or involves complex personal injury litigation, our team is ready to support you every step of the way.

Our solicitors in Dundee offer a no win no fee service, which means there is no financial risk to you in making a claim. If we do not secure compensation for you, you will not owe us anything. We believe that access to justice should not depend on your ability to pay upfront legal fees, and our no win no fee approach reflects that.

The Personal Injury Claims Process

We understand that the idea of making a claim can feel daunting, particularly when you are already dealing with the physical and emotional aftermath of an accident. Our job is to make the claims process as straightforward and stress-free as possible for you.

When you contact our personal injury solicitors in Dundee, we will start with a free, no-obligation consultation to hear about what happened and give you an honest assessment of your claim. If we believe you have a strong case, we will take on your claim on a no win no fee basis and begin gathering the evidence needed to support it. This can include medical reports, witness statements, photographic evidence, and documentation of your financial losses.

We will handle all communication with the other party and their insurers on your behalf, negotiating hard to achieve the best possible outcome. Very few claims in Dundee proceed to court, but if yours does, our experienced personal injury lawyers will represent you with confidence and the right legal expertise.

Dispute Resolution

How Much Compensation Could You Receive?

The amount of compensation you may be entitled to depends entirely on the specific facts of your case. Personal injury compensation in Scotland is typically made up of two elements: general damages, which cover your pain, suffering and loss of amenity; and special damages, which cover your financial losses such as lost earnings, medical expenses, travel expenses, and any longer-term impact on your ability to work.

Our Dundee personal injury lawyers will give you a realistic and transparent assessment of what your claim may be worth once we have reviewed the details of your situation. We will never inflate expectations, but we will always fight to ensure you receive every penny of the compensation you deserve.

Our Fee Structure

Success Fee: If your claim is successful, our success fee is charged as a percentage of compensation awarded to you. This fee covers our legal services and includes the cost of After the Event (ATE) insurance to protect you against having to pay the other side’s costs if your claim is unsuccessful.

No Win, No Fee Explained: You will not pay any legal fees if your claim is unsuccessful. However, if we secure compensation for you, our success fee will be deducted from your compensation award before payment to you.

When You Might Be Liable for Costs:

  • If you choose to terminate your agreement with us but later succeed with your claim through other means, such as through another firm of solicitors, you may be liable for the cost of the work we have completed on your behalf.
  • In other exceptional circumstances as detailed in our instruction agreement and terms of business, such as if you have misled us or falsely represented part of your claim.

These terms will be fully outlined in your instruction agreement and Terms of Business with us, and are available for you to review before you make any binding commitment. You are under no obligation to these terms by making an initial enquiry.

Frequently Asked Questions

In Scotland, you generally have three years from the date of your accident to raise an injury claim. This is known as the prescriptive period. Missing this deadline will in almost all circumstances bar your claim entirely, so it is important to seek expert legal support as soon as possible after your accident. There are some limited exceptions, for example where symptoms of an injury only became apparent some time after the incident, but these are strictly applied.
