"We thought that we needed to write to you to express our deepest thanks for the way that you personally and all of the staff involved with you carried out the whole case from beginning to end. The background people are often overlooked but we feel that we had the best team playing for us on all levels."

George Ide looked after my claim from accident to the case conclusion, they took care of everything on route which concluded in a very substantial out of court settlement. The settlement enabled the family not to worry about future employment problems, and gives everyone piece of mind. George Ide are a very professional company, and I would always recommend them to other people in the same situation.

Paul Lewis

On April 9th 2010 it was my turn to be involved in a traffic accident with an uninsured driver. Although my injury was only a minor back injury, I wanted to be able to claim some sort of compensation if only for some treatment of physiotherapy.
George Ide LLP, appointed by my insurance company, have been absolutely superb in representing my claim for personal injury against the Motor Insurance Bureau.
With the expertise of Paul Lewis, Head of Accident Management, he has managed to increase the original offer made by the MIB almost threefold.
It has been a long process, as Paul advised from the outset, but has been worthwhile and rewarding. I do hope that I do not need to use Paul’s expertise ever again, but know that if I do I would be in the hands of a very capable and friendly team.

Garry Sleet

From the first meeting, Mr Garry Sleet was friendly, approachable and professional, with many years of experience behind him. He has been in constant communication with me throughout the claim and I was kept informed of all progress as it happened. I am so happy and can't thank him enough for everything he has done.

Hit & Run Accidents

Hit and run accidents
It is bad enough being involved in a car crash but when the driver responsible leaves the scene without waiting to check if victims have been injured or damage has been caused, a personal injury solicitor from George Ide LLP will be needed to help you obtain justice after a hit and run accident.
The Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) exists to make compensation payments to road traffic accident victims who have been involved with an uninsured driver but it will also act where a driver cannot be traced.
However, before it can become involved, the claimant has to show that all efforts to contact the errant motorist have been made. If not already investigating, the police need to be notified within five days of an accident so that attempts can be made to find the suspected driver.
Your vehicle insurance company will also want the maximum steps to be taken to trace the person responsible for causing damage or injury to you so that liability for compensation can be settled.
If you have been involved in a hit and run accident in the Chichester / Bognor Regis area or further afield, no doubt, you will be shocked after the incident, as well as potentially suffering from consequences of an injury, but help is at hand from the specialist personal injury lawyers at George Ide who have experience and knowledge of similar legal situations.
We can complete paperwork on your behalf for submission to the MIB and, if necessary, represent your interests with the organisation so that you can receive appropriate compensation.
Whether your vehicle has been damaged by an uninsured driver or you and any passengers have been hurt in a hit and run accident, the sympathetic professional law team will guide you through the procedure to see it to a fair conclusion.
