Sports Injury

The Law is actually very straightforward. High profile cases involving players such as Gordon Watson (Bradford City) and Chris Casper (Reading) have made it clear that all players have to take care for the safety of opponents. A player who injures an opponent as a result of a dangerous challenge can be ordered to pay compensation. Almost all players, at all levels are covered by insurance for such incidents.

So why do I need an expert lawyer?

Everyone knows that football is a fast moving game and serious injuries can occur without anyone being to blame. Our expertise means that we can give an immediate assessment of whether or not a case is worth pursuing – usually during the initial phone call. We often win cases after other lawyers have refused to get involved.

Keep the lawyers out of the game!

We hear that all the time and, by and large we agree. But we all know that some football incidents are just plain stupid. The results often leave players with serious injury and massive financial problems. When that happens we are there to help and if you look at what our clients have to say you’ll see that our advice has usually come in handy!
