Ralli can advise you before you contract with a professional. Manchester-based Ralli can draft contracts from scratch or advise you on suggested amendments to a contract presented to you by a professional. In particular Ralli’s solicitors can advise you on any risk to you and possible ways of tackling it.
If unfortunately something has gone wrong Ralli’s Solicitors can advise you on whether you can bring a claim against the professional in negligence. Ralli's wealth of experience in bringing professional negligence claims and access to a network of expert witnesses enables Ralli to provide an efficient and cost effective solution to meet our clients’ objectives.
It is important to seek advice on your negligence claim as soon as possible. Professional negligence claims have statutory time limits which preclude bringing action once passed. In addition your existing legal expense cover is likely to have a time limit by which you are required to notify your insurers. It is important therefore to act quickly on your professional negligence claim.
It is also important to see a solicitor as soon as possible as vital evidence may be destroyed or lost which would assist you professional negligence claim.
When assessing your case Ralli will consider your funding requirements and check your existing insurance policies to see whether you have existing legal expense cover. If you do not, Ralli will work with you to provide funding arrangements to suit your needs.
If you need advice on your dealings with a professional whether before contracting or when something has gone wrong please give us a call on 0870 998 9000 or alternatively, request a call back from one of our Ralli staff.
