The
Pre Action Personal Injury Protocol is
an official set of rules that both claimant and
defendants must abide by during a claim. The
Protocol states that a detailed letter known
as a "letter of claim" must be sent to the
responsible party outlining the reasons for
bringing the case.
You must confirm the claimants allegations of
negligence (or a broad outline) and confirm any
witnesses or additional evidence. You can also set
out what documents may be required of the employer
by way of disclosure. eg Accident book record etc.
Liability
must be outlined clearly to ensure a swift
resolution to the claim.
The letter must also detail what injury has been
suffered and whether there are any ongoing losses
arising from the injury.
