Fatal Accident Claim Experts
fatal accidents
If you have lost a loved one in an accident we know how difficult it can be to cope on your own.
Losing someone close to you in an accident will cause you an immeasurable amount of pain and suffering but for some families even greater immediate stresses can be felt financially as well as emotionally.
Our specialist and accredited Personal Injury Solicitors have a great deal of experience involving successfully securing accident compensation following someone's death.
We can help you with everything, from claiming for your bereavement and recovering your losses, such as funeral expenses, to reviewing your financial dependency and then making the necessary claim in this regard.
A compensation claim is going to feel like small comfort when wrestling with the turmoil of bereavement. No amount of financial compensation can ever fill the void left by losing someone, but we are here to help and take the strain, to ensure you receive the compensation you rightly deserve. Trust us to help you.
Thank you PSR Solicitors for the professional way you have dealt with my claim you have made the whole process as stress free as possible.
I would like to thank the team at the Wrexham office for everything they have done for me and for reaching settlement. I will definitely recommend PSR
I’m incredibly grateful to all at PSR Solicitors. I was sceptical at first of the ‘No Win, No Fee’ basis simply due to never taking legal action before. However, I will have no hesitancy recommending you to other who find themselves in similar circumstances. I’m really pleased with the result.
Quality and professional service. My claim was dealt with very quickly and efficiently, would highly recommend.
They were very helpful, better value, and dealt with my claim within 7 months. After a 4 and a half years issue with my previous solicitors.
Fatal accident claims are thankfully quite rare in this country however when they do occur they have far-reaching effects on the family and friends of the deceased. If this is a parent, the whole-life effect on children can be both significant and irreconcilable.
The effects on parents if they lose a child are equally devastating, especially when their loss has been caused by fault or negligence of others.
We understand that this is the most difficult type of compensation claim to make as no matter how much we can help, we are limited by the laws we operate under.
The complicated rules governing such cases are found in the Fatal Accidents Act 1976 which has recently been amended to broaden its scope.
This is because traditionally there has been little room for negotiation as the Act sets out what is covered, such as an award for bereavement (a fixed amount of £11,800) or the recovery of funeral expenses, and also limits who can claim and the amounts of compensation. A full breakdown is provided below:
Claims under this act are made by the deceased's estate and can include claims for the following:
Claims under this act are made by any dependants of the deceased and can include claims for the following:
The police or the Health and Safety Executive are normally involved in the commencement of an investigation where a death has occurred due to an accident. They will investigate what went wrong, gather all the relevant evidence, and then make a decision whether to prosecute the person or company who is responsible.
When we take the matter on we often have to wait until these investigations are complete before then approaching the insurer of the responsible party and proceeding with a fatal accident claim.

Richard Layfield
Solicitor - Head of Personal Injury
I've been a Solicitor at PSR Solicitors since March 2013 and now take full responsibility for leading 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 retained by this firm as a Criminal Defence Solicitor until I decided to relocate up to North Wales, for the countryside and the people..
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
Managing Director
All Offices
I am the Managing Director of PSR Solicitors. 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 in Shotton, Deeside with this aim. 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.
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
Solicitor - Head of Litigation
Colwyn Bay 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.

I have a particular interest in pursuing claims for cyclists as I'm a keen cyclist myself with specialist knowledge and training in this area.
