Road Traffic Accidents
We handle compensation claims for injuries sustained in road traffic collisions, including car, motorcycle, and cycling accidents. Our solicitors work with medical experts to assess injury severity and calculate appropriate compensation for pain, lost earnings, and rehabilitation costs. Clients benefit from our no win no fee model and 97.65% success rate in securing fair settlements from insurers.
Medical Negligence
Specialist representation for patients harmed by substandard medical care, including misdiagnosis, surgical errors, and birth injuries. We investigate claims against NHS trusts and private healthcare providers, using expert medical testimony to prove negligence. Compensation covers ongoing treatment costs, lost income, and quality-of-life adjustments, with our success fee only payable upon winning your case.
Workplace Injuries
Support for employees injured in workplace accidents or through occupational illnesses like asbestos exposure. We handle claims against employers' insurers, focusing on securing compensation for lost earnings, medical expenses, and home adaptations. Our team understands HSE regulations and ensures compliance with strict time limits for work-related injury claims.
Spinal Injuries
Specialist claims for severe spinal trauma resulting in paralysis or mobility impairment. We work with spinal injury associations to calculate lifetime care costs, housing modifications, and assistive technology needs. Our solicitors have experience negotiating multi-million-pound settlements to cover 24/7 care requirements and loss of future earnings.
Asbestos-Related Diseases
Expert representation for asbestos exposure victims, including mesothelioma, asbestosis, and pleural thickening claims. We trace historical employers and insurers to secure compensation, with specialist knowledge of occupational disease registries and trust funds. Our team handles urgent claims with expedited court procedures to prioritise client needs.
Questions
What types of personal injury claims do you handle?
We specialise in road traffic accidents, medical negligence, workplace injuries, spinal/brain injuries, and asbestos-related diseases, with expertise in complex cases requiring specialist medical evidence.
How does no win no fee work?
You pay no legal fees upfront. If your claim fails, you owe nothing. Successful claims see legal costs recovered from the defendant, with any success fee agreed in advance and capped by law.
What compensation can I claim?
General damages for pain/suffering and special damages for financial losses including medical costs, lost earnings, care needs, and home adaptations, calculated using judicial guidelines and expert testimony.
How long will my claim take?
Simple cases resolve in 6-12 months, while complex injuries like brain/spinal damage may take 2-5 years. We prioritise early interim payments where possible to support your recovery needs.
Do you offer 24/7 support?
Yes, our freephone helpline operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with dedicated case handlers available for urgent assistance and regular claim updates.
Are there time limits for making a claim?
Most personal injury claims must be filed within 3 years of the incident, though exceptions apply for minors, asbestos diseases, and cases involving mental capacity issues. Contact us for urgent advice.

Report
I chose Harris Fowler after seeing their advert on television and my initial contact with Jaqqui Collings was friendly and caring and I was confident that I had chosen well. I had a serious fall at a leading supermarket resulting in a broken hip and two weeks in hospital. This was almost 18 months ago and I am still suffering the Affects. During my claim I was dealt with by several different people and the result was my case was referred to the directors who decided they felt the case could not be won.
I received this decision in writing and I felt so disappointed I wrote and asked if this could be reconsidered. The only reply I received was that they were not willing to risk their reputation I felt if this had gone to court it would have been found in my favour. So my life changing injury was too big a risk for Harris Fowler to represent me.

Huw didn't seem overly interested in taking on my clinical negligence case, he huffed and puffed a lot and said how difficult cosmetic surgery cases are. I felt like I was wasting mine and his time and he didnt fill me with positivity that they could win my case. Huw said he was sending across an email but I didnt receive it, heard from his Secretary 2 weeks later but by then I'd already gone to Slee Blackwell Solicitors signed consent and they'd written a witness statement for me, totally different experience!

Critical: Professionalism A car drove into me, Harris Fowler's in Taunton accepted my case, unfortunately I was strung along for years. I had to sort my own medical treatment out, janine east was supposed to help, hopefully this doesn't happen to other people.

I appreciate all the assistance. Even out of office hours. My case wasn't easy. But the outcome was very good. I will definitely recommend Harris Fowler. Javid was very supportive. Thanks so much. From Patricia Odiaka
