Serious Injury Claim Experts
Our dedicated Serious Injury Claims specialists are recognised as expert solicitors in England & Wales for helping people in the aftermath of life-changing injuries and in handling complex Serious Injury Claims for compensation.
Serious Injury Claims tend to be complex cases where the victims have suffered critical injuries likely to have an impact on the rest of their lives. As such, multiple factors must be considered and evaluated when making a Serious Injury Claim.
Serious Injury Compensation awards can be of very high value, so it is essential that you have specialist solicitors overseeing your claim from start to finish to ensure liable parties and insurers dealing with the case are not allowed to minimise entitlement to damages in any way.
Complex calculations as to long-term care packages, loss of earning capacity, and future needs must be carefully weighed to guarantee that a fair and proper compensation settlement is awarded.
Whether the injury has befallen a child or another family member, it can feel almost impossible to cope on your own. The Serious Injury Solicitors at PSR are ready to help ease the burden.
The financial compensation package is only one of the ways we help families struggling to come to terms with such a devastating event.
Our initial focus and attention are on ensuring the best care is made available to help with the physical and mental well-being of those involved.

Your questions answered
If you have sustained a serious injury in an accident caused by someone else, you may be entitled to claim compensation for your injuries.
Ordinarily, the accident would need to have occurred in the last three years but there are exceptions to this rule, so it is always advisable to speak to a qualified serious injury lawyer before making any decisions on pursuing a potential claim.
At PSR Solicitors we have an expert team of serious injury lawyers with extensive experience in handling a varied range of Serious Injury Claims, dealing with claims relating to injuries affecting the spine and brain, as well as injuries resulting in some form of amputation.
After an initial conversation about the details of your case, we will be able to tell you straight away if we feel you have grounds to make a claim, and our expert Serious Injury Solicitors will guide you through the process in a friendly, supportive, and simple to understand manner.
If you are considering making a compensation claim for a serious injury, then contact our team of specialist lawyers for an initial discussion about what has happened and the circumstances in which you sustained your injury.
We will ask for details including where the injury occurred, who was involved and whether there were any witnesses present. It is important for us to understand how your injury affects your daily life and impacts your family. Understanding the details of the incident and the effect the injury has had on your family allows us to assess the value of your claim and enables us to prepare the most robust and effective representation of your case.
After an initial chat, our team of serious injury lawyers will be able to advise you on the likelihood of a successful claim and give you an indication of the potential settlement value. From there, we will guide you through the process in a friendly, supportive, and simple to understand manner.
It is critical that any financial settlement meets your lifetime needs so it is essential that you instruct solicitors with the skill and experience necessary to secure the full amount of compensation available.
Calculating the compensation due for a serious injury is a complex process, involving the consideration of many different factors. Because the details surrounding these factors will be unique in every case, so too will be the resultant compensation. At PSR Solicitors, we regularly handle cases of this nature, so we have a deep understanding of the process of assessing the potential value of a claim and are proud to have a long-standing track record of successfully and efficiently dealing with serious injury compensation claims.
Due to the long-term impact a serious injury has on the victim, the final settlement value will often be significantly greater than in an average personal injury compensation claim and may require the need for interim compensation payments to help support victims in their recovery.
The compensation awarded will reflect the physical pain and mental suffering endured by the victim, alongside any injury-related costs and anticipated future financial losses. This may include costs for rehabilitative care, professional nursing, home adaptations or specialist equipment as well as transport requirements. If the injured person were unable to return to work, the loss of future earnings would also need to be factored into any settlement.
To discuss a potential serious injury case and to receive a no-obligation, free initial assessment of your claim, call PSR Solicitors’ team of specialist serious injury lawyers today.
Sometimes referred to as catastrophic injuries, serious injuries will usually result in the injured person being admitted to hospital for a prolonged period of time. In some cases, where the injury requires specific expertise or specialist medical equipment, the patient may need to be moved to a particular hospital to ensure they receive the most appropriate care for their injuries.
If and when the person is ready to come home, it is likely that they may require assistance from a relative or professional carer, certainly in the initial stages of their recovery but often on a long-term basis. They may also need to make a number of return visits to the hospital as part of their long-term treatment plan and are likely to undergo a tailored rehabilitation program to improve their quality of life and maximise their chances of recovery.
As well as the physical effects of the injury, victims of serious injuries can sometimes suffer detrimental effects to their mental health, either due to the trauma of the incident itself or because of the dramatic effect the injury has had on their life. These psychological effects can often be as debilitating as the physical effects of the injury itself and may prompt the injured person to seek professional psychiatric support.
The impacts of serious injuries are far-reaching. As everyday life changes after a serious injury, so do everyday tasks. Many activities that once required no assistance may need to be performed by someone else completely. The person may also require adaptations to their home or car and their injuries may mean they are unable to continue in their previous job and may force them to stop working completely.

Richard Layfield LLB
Solicitor - Head of Personal Injury
I've been a Solicitor at PSR Solicitors since March 2013 and am head of Personal Injury throughout the firm as well as having full responsibility for managing the Rhyl office.
I completed both my Law LLB and LPC degrees at Cardiff University, graduating in 2008 and 2009 respectively. Thereafter, I completed my 2-year training contract at a firm based in Cardiff, then I was retained by this firm as a Criminal Defence Solicitor until I decided to relocate up to North Wales.
As an experienced personal injury and civil litigation Solicitor, I represent Claimants in all manner of personal injury case work including injuries as a result of Road Traffic Accidents, Accidents at Work, and Occupiers Liability Accidents. I handle all types off personal injury claims from the minor right through to complex, serious injury claims.
Outside of work I'm a keen rugby fan, who enjoys running and travel.

Paul Rossiter
Paul Rossiter LLB Law
Managing Director
I qualified as a solicitor in 1998 and worked as a Personal Injury Specialist throughout my legal career, dealing with high value serious injury cases obtaining both compensation and rehabilitation for my clients. I was a member of APIL (Association Of Personal injury Lawyers) and recognised by the Law Society as being a Senior Personal Injury Solicitor.
After working in various law firms, both small high street firms and a larger practice in Manchester, I saw a gap in the market for a high quality practice that had the same core high street values of being personable and approachable and combining them with the efficiency and professionalism of a larger practice. PSR Solicitors was therefore established in 2009 and since then PSR Solicitors has provided high quality legal services to local clients throughout North Wales and Cheshire.
I live in Chester with my young family and 2 dogs and enjoy regular holidays along the coast of North Wales and Ibiza.
I have recently been asked to join the board of trustees at Platform For Life, a mental health counselling charity in Chester. Good mental health is the foundation of a more fulfilled, happy and healthy life, yet many families struggle to access the help and support they need to achieve it. Platform for Life offers free local counselling and play therapy for families who would otherwise not be able to afford it.

Mark House LLB
Solicitor - Head of Litigation
USUAL LOCATIONS: Shotton Office, Wrexham Office, Colwyn Bay Office, Wallasey Office
I completed my law degree and legal practice course at Nottingham Law School, before qualifying as a solicitor in 2004. I then worked at a specialist personal injury firm in the East Midlands and a leading regional firm, before joining PSR in 2017.
With PSR I've continued to specialise in acting for Personal Injury claimants and have developed a keen understanding of the procedures and tactics involved in pursuing a claim, as well as the difficulties and concerns faced by people who have suffered as the result of an accident.
Since 2014 I've been proud to help hundreds of people. I've represented the public in all manner of injury claims, including serious orthopaedic injuries, brain damage, and psychological trauma. I was instructed to deal with claims for clients in the aftermath of the Potters Bar rail crash and the Penhallow hotel fire.
In addition, I represent clients in relation to all manner of disputes. I have dealt with professional negligence claims, such as those against solicitors and builders. I have helped clients recover money which is due to them and to dispute invoices which have been sent to them. I have helped business defend claims against them. I have tackled neighbour and boundary disputes.
I live locally to the Colwyn Bay office, and outside of work, I enjoy taking advantage of the coastal and mountain outdoor activities which are available on the doorstep. I'm also heavily involved with an outdoor pursuits charity, which I find an enjoyable and rewarding way of using my free time.
