Post-Settlement Advice & Support

Our support doesn’t end when your case does 

Settling your claim isn’t the finish line, it’s the start of the next part of your recovery. 

A settlement can feel like the end of a long road, but for many of our clients, it’s really the beginning of the next stage. A significant compensation award can bring reassurance for the future, but it can also bring difficult decisions about your rehabilitation, your future care and how best to protect and manage your settlement. Making the most of your compensation, and protecting it for the future, matters just as much as securing it in the first place. That’s why we stay involved long after your claim has settled. 

Protecting your compensation

• Personal Injury Trust advice to help protect means-tested benefits. This usually starts early in your claim, when you receive your first interim payment, and continues after your claim settles.
• Deputyship support, where someone needs help managing their affairs
• Guidance on wills, so your compensation is protected for the people who matter to you

Making the most of it with personal injury settlement financial advice

We can refer you to independent financial planners and wealth managers who understand personal injury settlements specifically. If you already have an independent financial adviser, where appropriate we can work with them, giving them a clear understanding of your settlement, your ongoing needs and the purpose of your compensation. Either way, you can make informed decisions that support you for the long term, not just today.

Ongoing care and rehabilitation

For many of our clients, recovery doesn’t follow a fixed timeline, and support may be needed for many years to come. Where your settlement includes funding for ongoing care, therapies, equipment or accommodation, we work alongside your case manager and rehabilitation team to make sure it’s set up properly from the outset, and that the right support stays in place for years to come.

Benefits and welfare advice

After a serious injury, you may be entitled to benefits you haven’t needed to claim before. We can help you understand what’s available to you and support you with applying, both during your claim and after it settles.

Helping you move forward

We don’t just settle claims, we help people move forward. Your rehabilitation, your financial security, your future: we’re here to help with all three.
