Once your hearing has taken place, your case will have been concluded and the judge presiding over your hearing will make the decision as to whether or not your case has been successful, and if so, how much compensation you should be awarded.
If your case has been unsuccessful, you will not receive a compensation award. If your case has been successful, as with a case settlement, the defendant’s side will forward on a cheque to your lawyer, who will then ensure it is sent to you, concluding the case.

PORTAL CASES

NON-PORTAL CASES
Generally, these are cases that either; i. have occurred abroad. ii. Are likely to provide you with compensation in excess of £25,000 or iii. Have left you with life-changing injuries.
