Notice for companies who have had a claim against them for personal injuries

Have you had a claim for personal injuries made against you in the LAST 12 MONTHS?

If yes, can you please check the claim for the following wording:

 “In the event that you do not now admit liability as requested but do subsequently consent to an assessment by the Personal Injuries Assessment Board and you accept such assessment, any agreement by our client to accept such assessment will be conditional upon your agreeing to indemnify our client in respect of such costs for which our client may have a liability to his or her own solicitor or may otherwise be ordered to pay to any successful defendant(s) not participating or accepting within the meaning of the Personal Injuries Assessment Board Act 2003 in any proceeding as may have had to be issued by virtue of section 7 of the Civil Liability and Courts Act 2004 or otherwise, and resulting in your failure to admit liability as requested.”

If you have received this standardised wording in the claim against you, please notify the ISME CEO by email to [email protected]
