Customer Reviews

Completely useless
I bought this book because I wanted a sourcebook that would help me resolve my claim without involving a lawyer, something the book's self-review promised it would do. However, the book was cynical and insulting, and every other line said, in effect, "if you INSIST on doing this yourself, good luck. However, you should really get a lawyer." The book's title should be "Get a Lawyer for your Personal Injury Claim." That's about the only message I got from it. What a disappointment.

the best book I have read in a long time!
When I read this book, I suspected it might be good. Little did I realize exactly how good it would be. Everything you could possibly want to know about winning your personal injury claim is in here. Even if you don't have a claim, this book makes for an excellent read in front of a fire on a cold winter night. Mr. Aidman's tone reasonates with warmth, understanding, and humour. I highly reccomend this book to everyone.

A REALLY HELPFUL EASY READ
I had a small case and didn't want to turn a 1/3 of it over to a lawyer so I got this book. It explained step by step what to expect and do and I was able therefore to maximize value and minimize effort on my own claim.
