Sports Injury Claims, Scotland

Sport, because of its physical nature, can cause accidents and injuries.

Sports Injury Claims

You accept a certain amount of risk of injury when playing sports, however, you should not accept an injury that occurs as a result of someone’s negligence. This can occur, for example, where sports equipment is faulty or where a sports coach or organisation fails to protect players against known hazards.

If you have been injured when playing sports, and you believe another person is responsible, then the sports injury claims team at Jones Whyte are here to offer practical, bespoke personal injury advice.

So if you have suffered a sports injury due to someone else’s negligence, contact the specialist sports injury solicitors at Jones Whyte today.

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.
