Injured Through No Fault of Your Own, You May Be Entitled to Compensation

I have a criminal record, can I still make an injury claim?

In many cases, yes. Having a criminal record does not automatically prevent you from making an injury claim. The impact of a conviction depends on the type of claim and how compensation is being sought.

For example, claims made through the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA) may be affected by unspent convictions. Our injury solicitors in Bradford can review your circumstances and advise honestly on whether your record is likely to impact your claim.

How long do I have to make an injury claim?

Most injury claims must be started within three years of the date of the accident or the date you became aware of your injury. This time limit can vary depending on the type of claim.

If the injured person was a child, the three-year time limit usually begins on their eighteenth birthday. There may also be exceptions in cases involving mental capacity or delayed diagnosis.

Our injury solicitors in Bradford can quickly confirm whether you are within the required time limits and advise you on the best course of action.

Can I choose to speak to a male or female solicitor?

Yes. We understand that some injury claims involve sensitive or personal circumstances. At Arma Law, we have both male and female solicitors available and will always respect your preference to ensure you feel comfortable throughout the process.

The court case or investigation is ongoing, can I start my claim now?

In most cases, yes. You do not usually need to wait for an investigation or related proceedings to conclude before starting an injury claim. Acting early can help protect evidence and avoid issues with limitation deadlines.

Our injury solicitors in Bradford will advise you on the right timing and manage your claim efficiently on your behalf.

I have not reported the incident, can I still make a claim?

For many injury claims, reporting the incident is important. Workplace accidents should be reported to your employer, road traffic accidents should be reported to the police, and accidents in public places should be recorded where possible.

Failing to report an incident can make a claim more difficult, but it does not always prevent you from claiming. Our injury solicitors in Bradford can assess your situation and advise whether you still have a viable claim and what steps to take next.
