In a recent Uk survey conducted by the national statistics bureau, there is an average of 107 people injured in a road traffic accident per day in the UK. These injuries involve both drivers and passengers. However, personal injury claims are not limited purely to drivers of vehicles, passengers, pedestrians, cyclists and motor cyclists that have been injured are also entitled to pursue a compensation claim. We are specialists in road traffic accident claims and road traffic claims are one of the most straight forward injuries to deal with.
Our key personal have worked directly with many of the biggest insurance companies and as such we can bring your claim to a speedy and successful conclusion.
The main things to consider if you have been involved in a road traffic accident are:
Was it non fault? Many people become confused as to who’s fault the accident was. Even if the fault was down at 50/50 you are still entitled to some compensation. Clients who have been injured become confused between the claim on the damage to the vehicle and your personal injury claim.
Your personal injury claim is a separate entity. Our team will speak to the insurance companies involved and will then be able to determine where the fault lies partially or entirely. If you are unsure of this then contact our claims department and we will be able to give you an instant decision.

I have Legal Expense Insurance via my insurers. Do I have to use them to claim? Insurance companies and brokers are not regulated to deal with claims. They simply pass this information to a solicitor that deal with personal injury for a referral fee. Your legal expense policy covers you for any legal representation in connection with your claim and as such you are free to use any regulated personal injury litigator. It is mostly advantageous to use an independent personal injury solicitor purely because they have your best interests at heart and are not involved in other claims involving repairs to vehicles etc.
Have you been to a medical profession about your injuries? It is important that you have your injuries documented medically not only so they are provable but also that they are dealt with by a medical professional, who can treat your injuries effectively. Many people who are injured, do not attend the doctors, or hospital immediately because the injuries in some cases do not become apparent immediately. If you have not been to a doctors, drop in centre or hospital, then don’t worry, you may still be eligible for a compensation claim, just make an appointment at your earliest convenience.
The driver at fault wasn’t insured. Can I still claim? The simple answer is yes! If you have been injured via a hit and run or an uninsured driver, then you are still able to make a claim via the MIB. The motor insurance bureau offers compensation through an uninsured drivers claim.
