Rail industry

Watmores has unparalleled experience in dealing with the rail industry. Our personnel include those who have been handling claims since before privatisation. We receive instructions from train operating and infrastructure maintenance companies in relation to both personal injury and property damage claims and are familiar with railway procedure and practice, working closely with those employed by the rail companies at all levels. We provide a complete service to the industry: from emergency response to spilt cups of coffee!

We appreciate the challenges raised by an industry that relies on inter-dependent services in a complex environment and understand the relationships so that we can achieve cost effective results. We have a thorough working knowledge of the Claims Allocation and Handling Agreement and our lawyers meet regularly with other industry parties in order to resolve disputes.

Motor: cars, buses and coaches

Watmores has extensive experience of dealing with motor claims, with particular expertise in conducting claims on coaches involving a large number of claimants. We are alive to the challenges presented by low value claims and the possibility of fraudulent claims, and have the ability to advise our clients on the correct cases to fight.
Whether your claim is low value or catastrophic, we have the lawyers to provide you with the service you require.

Holiday claims

A growing area of litigation, we have the lawyers to deal with claims both at home and abroad. We have extensive experience of forging links with firms abroad in order to deal with claims out of jurisdiction in a cost effective way, ensuring local legal requirements are complied with. We recognise the challenges posed evidentially and procedurally by such claims and will seek the cost effective and imaginative solution.
