If you suffer personal injury in a road accident, at work, or any other place or situation, say from someone’s negligence, you deserve compensation, at least for medical expenses, physical and emotional trauma, and in some cases, loss of income due to psychological or physical incapacitation.
One of our main focuses at Shem Kebongo & Co. Advocates is making your personal injury claims easy through our extensive experience in Insurance Law. We save you the headache of running up and down in pursuit of justice by guiding and representing you throughout the process.
Understanding Personal Injury
Personal injury claims proceed when you suffer bodily harm, mostly from someone else’s actions or inactions, with the most common being road accidents. However, claims often emanate from many other situations, including these three:
- Medical malpractice
- Public liability incidents
- Workplace injuries
Some unscrupulous insurance companies often try to minimize or avoid paying out altogether, making it crucial for you to have legal representation. That is how and where we come into the scene.

What To Do in the Event of Personal Injury
You should take the following four crucial steps as soon as possible if you or a loved one sustains injuries in an accident or incident:
- Seek Medical Attention: Prioritize your health and well-being and ensure comprehensive documentation of your injuries.
- Gather Evidence: Obtain first-hand witness testimonials, accident reports, and visual proof of incidences where and when possible.
- Avoid Early Settlement Offers: Don’t be duped by early insurance offers by insurance companies that want to give you low settlements to close a case quickly. We can evaluate and give you better values of your claim.
- Seek Legal Advice: Get in touch with a legal expert early enough to improve your chances of a successful claim and subsequent settlement.
