Banks will give you a “free” television if you open a checking account; the department store will save you 20% on your purchases today if you sign up for their charge card; so why can’t law firms give you an iPad if you make a personal injury claim? A few law firms in Europe are doing just this, offering either an iPad or hundreds of pounds in shopping vouchers if you decide to take your car-crash losses to court.
In Liverpool, Hampson Hughes offers the iPad 2, or if you prefer, a ÂŁ1,000 cash advance, if you open up a case with them, and though they pay for this “free” gift by deducting it from the compensation the victims win, the company is nevertheless a no-win, no-fee firm.
Another firm will award vouchers if you merely reference them to a car accident victim. Just fill out a simple form on their online website.
Are such promo schemes legit? According to the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), which establishes the rules for the law firms in England and Wales, its okay.
So you can take home an iPad or a Debenhams voucher and make your personal injury claims with style. Supplies are limited! Act now!
