Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Watch our web TV show to find out when it’s fair to make a claim and how you can make a claim if you are hurt through negligence

Show date: Tuesday 23rd November

Show time: 3pm

Many of us have at some time or another suffered an injury through no fault of our own.

But whilst it may have led to time off work or a recurring back problem, a new study shows the majority of us would never dream of making a personal injury claim, whether through embarrassment or a fear of the cost.

However if an injury is a result of a third party’s negligence then it’s perfectly reasonable for you to look into the process of making a claim.

So if you are unsure of the circumstances in which you could make a claim or are looking for advice on where to turn for help, then watch our web TV show where Muiris Lyons and David Bott from the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL) give the most up to date legal information on when it’s fair to claim, how to do so and who to trust.

Muiris Lyons and David Bott from APIL join us live online at www.studiotalk.tv on Tuesday 23rd November at show time to discuss how to get a fair deal when it comes to making a personal injury claim.
