UK CAR ACCIDENT COMPENSATION CLAIM ADVICE

If you are involved in a collision as a driver, passenger, rider or pedestrian your most urgent priority will of necessity involve treatment of any injuries that you have sustained. Thereafter you attention will most probably turn to getting your vehicle back on the road and starting a car accident compensation claim for damages for your losses and injuries.

If you were not to blame for the accident we are able to expedite repairs to your vehicle even if you are only insured third party. If the vehicle is a write off we should be able to get settlement of the full value of the vehicle within a few weeks of the accident. We are able to arrange hire cars paid for by the third party insurers to cover your needs whilst your vehicle is off the road or until you receive your settlement. Our car accident compensation claim solicitors are amongst the best in the business and deal exclusively in accident damages being members of the Law Society panel of personal injury experts and also members of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers.

Even if you are insured on a fully comprehensive basis you will still need to reclaim your lost policy excess from the negligent third party driver and will need to go through the same car accident compensation claim procedure in order to claim damages for any personal injury.

A number of third party insurance companies automatically provide a courtesy car whilst your car accident compensation claim is in progress and your vehicle is being repaired, however by law you are entitled to a car of similar status to your own and if the insurers are not able to provide a similar vehicle then you are entitled to hire one and claim the cost from those insurers. Other costs relating to motor vehicles can also be claimed in this manner including storage and recovery charges or any reasonably incurred losses and expenses.

In the case of a negligent driver whose identity has been established our solicitors act on a no win no fee basis and pay compensation in full with no deductions. Our claims are genuinely risk free and win or lose there is no charge. We are able to this because the insurers for the negligent third party not only pay compensation but they also pay reasonably incurred legal charges to the victim of their negligent customer as a separate item to other compensation payable directly to the client.

If you have been involved in a road traffic accident with an un-insured driver or you have been involved in a hit and run accident with an unidentified driver then we are able to make a claim on your behalf to the Motor Insurers Bureau (MIB) however terms and conditions relating to legal costs in MIB claims may differ.
