Football Accidents in Bristol – Claim for Compensation
Football is played by millions of people each and every day around the UK. It’s especially popular in Bristol. As one of the most popular sports in the city, it’s played by men, women, and children. So much so, we have two teams; Rovers and City. Due to the significant amount of people playing football in Bristol, we have seen a surge in football accidents, leading to personal injury claims.
Of course, football is a high intensity contact sport, and accidents and injuries are par to the course. Most people expect to suffer a minor injury from time to time whilst playing sports, but what happens when that injury was caused because of someone’s negligence? In cases such as this there could be a compensation claim case, and at Accident Claims Bristol we specialise in Bristol football injury compensation.
Whether you are an amateur player, Sunday league, or a professional footballer (for example playing for City or Rovers), we have the expertise to help you. Our solicitors** are in place to make sure that you are represented quickly and professionally in order to maximise your claim.
