Please Note:

This accident at work site has been devised to provide mere guidance on various personal injury topics. It is always recommended to seek professional legal advice from an experienced solicitor.

The Personal Injury Accreditation Scheme

We have already looked at Lexcel Accreditation that is awarded to solicitors that have earned the title for providing an exceptional service. Any such solicitor that has Lexcel Accreditation would receive to quote The Law Society: “Rigorous Independent Assessment Every Year” to maintain the high level of standards expected from earning such a title. This of course arises from The Law Society who represent solicitors in England and Wales. The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) is the regulatory body for solicitors in England and Wales and this is part of The Law Society, although it operates separately from it. And so The Law Society is certainly the one name that every solicitor would wish to earn an Award from. Lexcel Accreditation is just one such Award though, with there also being an Accreditation Scheme that is split out between various areas of law.

Since work accident compensation claims belong in the field of personal injury, this means that we are looking specifically for solicitors that are on the Personal Injury Accreditation Scheme; this makes great sense that you would be using a solicitor that has valued experience in the type of claim that you will be making. This is another mark of excellence arising from The Law Society that is to quote them: “Rigorously and independently tested” to maintain a high standard. Lexcel Accreditation and the Personal Injury Accreditation Scheme are two such markings that you should look out for when making an accident at work claim. Various solicitors that have been discussed on this site have earned these Awards. This certainly makes these companies worth considering if you do have a work accident claim that you are ready to proceed with.
