How to make a road traffic accident compensation claim

If you have been involved in a road traffic accident, either as a driver, passenger, pedestrian or in any other capacity, you should seek appropriate medical attention and report the accident to police at the earliest opportunity.

In most cases you will have 3 years from the time of the accident to make a claim. However, it is then a good idea to contact an experienced road traffic accident claims solicitor as soon as you feel able, to ensure you can put together the strongest possible case for claiming compensation.

Our road traffic accident compensation claims team will advise you on:

• The strength of your claim i.e. how likely you are to achieve a positive outcome.
• What evidence you need to collect e.g. photographs of damage, medical reports, official police reports etc.
• What you can claim for, including any costs incurred as a direct result of the accident e.g. car repair costs, the cost of alternative transport, any events you had to miss as a result of your accident etc.
• Exactly what will be involved in the claims process.
• How long your claim is likely to take.

In most cases, road traffic accident claims are settled outside of court, saving you time, expense and stress. However, where required we will represent you in court, or retain an experienced barrister to do so, ensuring you have the best possible representation for your claim.

Whiplash claims

Whiplash is a type of neck injury commonly experienced during a car accident where the soft tissues in the neck can become damaged by the head rapidly moving forwards, backwards or sideways. This can leave suffers with pain and limited mobility for weeks, months or even longer after a car accident.

While the government has announced plans to reform the law around whiplash claims, this should not be a deterrent to people making claims for genuine whiplash. If you believe you are suffering from whiplash as the result of a car accident, please get in touch and we will be happy to discuss the strength of your claim and your options for pursuing whiplash compensation.

How no win, no fee road traffic accident claims work

We represent many of our road traffic accident compensation claims clients on a no win, no fee basis. This means that you pay nothing upfront to make a claim and we only get paid if we win compensation for you.

The advantage of this approach is that it means anyone can bring a claim without needing to worry about how to pay the legal fees. It also means that when we take on your case, you can be confident that we believe you have a realistic chance of winning compensation – there is no incentive for us to waste your time with a claim that has little chance of success!

We will discuss our fee structure with you upfront and make a clear written agreement for how this will be paid. This generally involves us charging you a percentage of the compensation settlement we win for you, giving us an additional incentive to get the best possible compensation deal for you.
