What we do for you
Peter or Clara, and often both, will represent you from start to finish. Both Peter and Clara will be accessible to you. You will have our mobile telephone numbers and can talk to us at any time. We pride ourselves on providing the highest quality personal service and commercially responsible advice.
At Burt & Davies we understand that you are in unfamiliar territory when you suffer injury. You are often unable to return to work. Unable to participate in your normal daily activities. The things that you once took for granted become almost insurmountable hurdles. We understand that these things affect you and those closest to you. A transport accident can change your life. Suddenly you are having to deal with an insurer – the Transport Accident Commission (TAC).
Our role
Our role at BURT & DAVIES is to inform you. Also to deal with any uncertainty you may have. We seek to guide you through the Transport Accident Scheme. And help you fight the legal battles against the TAC so you can focus on your rehabilitation and recovery.
Compensation will never fully restore you to the position that you were in prior to being injured. However, it can assist reduce the financial burden. Therefore, we will assist you to maximise your TAC compensation entitlements. The aim is to do this as soon as possible whilst taking all relevant factors into account.
To achieve this alternative dispute resolution or negotiation with the TAC will occur when possible. With proper advice the vast majority of cases are resolved without Court action. Court action will only ever occur when negotiation has been unsuccessful and you authorise the proceedings.
Our role is one of partnership with you.
