Accident claims take place everyday all over UK. There was a time when no one knew about it, but today there is not a chance. There are hundreds, if not thousands of people making an injury claim every year.

Road Accidents are the most common ones and the injury caused could be a minor, just a scratch maybe or even fatal. If you have received an injury in any kind of accident, let it be on the road, at work or even on the streets, you can claim for compensation.

Accident claims are compensation documents, which are filed by an injured victim with the hope that the party against which the claim is being made will remunerate for the injuries caused. Let it be an accident at work or a slip and fall accident.

Injury Claim Route?

The solicitor will study your information obtained and will tell you against whom the accident claim should be made, known as the defendant. The defendant could be your employer, a shop owner, a medical practitioner, the car driver etc. In most of cases they are insured and hence their insurance company pays the compensation.


Personal Accident Claim Details

But before seeking help off a solicitor, it always best to keep details of the date, time of the accident and how it happened. If possible get details of the person or the company whom you are making the accident claim against.

Sometimes it may happen that you could be partly blamed for the accident; in such cases the defendant may not accept his liability fully, but partially still pays out. He may also be not willing to pay the amount you are claiming even if he happens to admit his liability.

Upon this occurrence, your dedicated solicitor would be able to advice as to what to do best and negotiate on your behalf if he thinks that it is possible. If the amount is not agreed upon or if the defendant denies the charges then you may have to take the case to court to win if they are adamant.



Accident Claim Costs

To ensure smooth running of accident claims, you would need to collect information from a number of sources and a medical report is just the beginning. It is advisable to make use of a solicitor as you can make a full recovery at home whilst they do the running and chasing around.

Then there is the court fees, which has to be paid. You have to show the expenditure endured by you in any treatments taken, a copy of which has to be sent to the defendant and one to the court. As again a personal injury solicitor can fund your case.

Many people, who have accidents at work, fear that they may lose their job if they make an injury compensation claim against the employer. So, keep in mind that the employer is not allowed to do that and it is their duty to cover the employee's expense for any accidents in a workplace.

The compensation amount you achieve for accident injury will depend on how bad your injuries are and what other losses you have incurred, but only in relation to the accident. If you have fully recovered then your accident claim solicitor will be able to tell you how much you can claim.

However, if you are still suffering, then they will be able to give you guidelines as to how to move your case forward.

Every year, the President of the United States will send a proposal to the Congress for the maximum number of refugees that can be admitted into the US for the upcoming fiscal year, as specified under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). This number is also known as the "refugee ceiling". Every year refugee advocates seek to raise the number whereas anti-immigration groups want to reduce it. Whatever their claims may be, once proposed, the refugee ceiling is normally accepted without substantial Congressional debate.

After the September 11, 2001 attacks, there was a substantial disruption to the processing of resettlement claims with admissions falling to about 26,000 in the year 2002. All refugee claims were double checked for any suspicious activity and strict procedures were put in place to detect any possible terrorist infiltration to the country. Given the ease with which foreigners can otherwise legally enter the US, entry as a refugee is comparatively unlikely. The number of admitted refugees increased in subsequent years with the refugee ceiling for the fiscal year 2006 put at 70,000. These numbers however are still among the lowest in 30 years.


The applications submitted by individuals who have already entered the US are judged on whether they fulfill the US definition of a "refugee" and on many other criteria (including many bars that would prevent an otherwise-eligible refugee from receiving protection). There are two ways to apply for asylum while in the US

If an asylum seeker has been ordered for removal before an immigration judge with an Office that is a part of the Department of Justice, the individual can apply for asylum with the Immigration Judge.

If an asylum seeker is inside the US and has not been placed in removal proceedings, he/she can file an application with USCIS (formerly the INS), regardless of his/her legal status in the US. But if the asylum seeker does not hold legal immigration status and USCIS does not approve the asylum application, then the USCIS will order for removal proceedings. In such a case, a judge will consider the application. After the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act passed in 1996, an applicant must apply for asylum within one year of his/her entry or will be barred from applying unless the applicant can prove changed circumstances that are material to his/her eligibility for asylum or establish exceptional circumstances for the delay.

Though there is no right to asylum in the US, eligible applicants have a right to have the Attorney General make a determination as to whether the applicant can be admitted into the US as an asylee.

The applicant should have sufficient proof that he/she is eligible for asylum. To prove, the applicant must show that he/she has a well-founded fear of persecution in his/her home country because of either race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. The applicant should demonstrate that he/she has a subjective fear (or apprehension) of future persecution in his/her home country that is objectively reasonable.
