How can we help?
If you've suffered financial loss or harm because of mistakes or poor advice from a professional, you may have grounds for a professional negligence claim. This type of claim arises when a professional, such as a solicitor, accountant, surveyor, architect, engineer or financial advisor, fails to meet the expected standard of care, causing you direct harm. Our experienced professional negligence solicitors in Bolton are here to help you pursue compensation and guide you through the legal process with expertise. Call us on 0161 696 6178.
To make a successful claim, it must be established that the professional owed you a duty of care, breached that duty through their actions or omissions, and that the breach directly resulted in your financial loss. Common examples include legal professionals missing important deadlines, accountants providing incorrect tax advice, surveyors failing to identify property defects, architects and engineers providing defective designs and financial advisors recommending unsuitable investments.
Our team in Bolton takes a straightforward approach, starting with a thorough assessment of your case. We gather all necessary evidence to demonstrate negligence and calculate your losses. We aim to resolve cases through negotiation or mediation where possible, but if litigation is necessary, we are fully prepared to represent you in court.
Professional negligence claims are subject to strict time limits, typically six years from the date of the negligent act. In some cases, this can be extended to three years from when you became aware of the issue. Acting quickly is crucial to ensuring your claim is filed within the appropriate timeframe.
We offer practical, clear advice tailored to your situation. With extensive experience handling professional negligence cases, our solicitors are dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome for you.
If you believe you have a claim for professional negligence, contact our Bolton solicitors today on 0161 696 6178. We’ll assess your case, discuss your options, and help you seek the compensation you deserve.
