      Your way of life can be drastically altered by a serious injury

      You can experience financial insecurity and worry that any benefits you receive might be altered. Our serious injury team provides expert guidance on how to handle your business and benefits following an injury. Additionally, you might discover that after collecting compensation for your injuries, your benefit position changes.

      Our team is aware that these are delicate subjects. We’ll evaluate your circumstances and provide you a full rundown of your possibilities. With our assistance, you may rest easy knowing that we have the knowledge necessary to handle your business with diligence and consideration.

      In what ways may compensation affect my ability to continue receiving benefits?

      Depending on whether a benefit means tested or not, your income may have an impact on your eligibility. In order to continue receiving the benefits you were receiving before your injury, we can assist you in setting up a personal injury trust to administer your compensation.

      You will be guided through the process of establishing a personal injury trust by our knowledgeable solicitors. We’ll also provide you advice on things like powers of solicitors. Here, you provide someone else the power to decide legally on your behalf.

      The following benefits are not means-tested, thus whether or not your compensation is placed in a personal injury trust has no bearing on them

      Attendance Allowance
      Disability Living stipend
      Industrial Accidents Disability Compensation
