MOTOR ACCIDENT COMPENSATION CLAIMS

Around 300,000 people are injured and are entitled to make motor accident compensation claims in the UK each year.

If you have just been involved in a car crash that was not your fault, you should seek damages for any losses you have incurred.

Injuries

Always get your injuries checked at the hospital or by your GP. You should always make sure that your injury has been medically assessed as it is much harder to prove you were injured in a motor accident if you do not have your injuries medically recorded at or near the time of the accident. Insurers will very often say either you were not injured, or your injury was caused by some other cause if you can not show detailed medical notes.

Damage to your Car or Vehicle

After your house, your car is normally your most valuable asset. In an accident, not only do you have to suffer the pain and inconvenience of the incident itself, but you have to manage without your car whilst repair or replacement issues are dealt with. Without proper legal intervention this can take much longer than necessary.

Other losses

We are also able to claim all other losses reasonably incurred as a result of the accident including past and future wages loss, insurance excess and other general expenses

To successfully pursue motor accident compensation claims it is vitally important to obtain legal representation immediately. As experienced lawyers we are able to put legitimate legal pressure on the other party’s insurers to make sure that your car is valued and then repaired as quickly as possible. We can instruct an independent estimator to value your car and quote for the repairs to your vehicle. Even if the insurers are still arguing over whose fault the incident was, once the car has been independently assessed, repairs can be authorised.

Whilst your car is off the road, we can often arrange for you to have a replacement hire car. Normally an insurance company will offer you a basic car if your car is being repaired. However if you are used to driving a large family car, you do not want to be given a very small two door car, to “make do”. As the accident is not your fault, why should you suffer further? Indeed if you have just been involved in an accident, the last thing you want to do is to drive an unfamiliar car that is much smaller and perceived to be less safe than the car you are used to. We are able to ensure that you receive the best representation for your motor accident compensation claims to ensure that no one takes advantage of you.
 

Insurers also try to insist that you use their approved repair garage. However, especially with prestige cars, this can have an affect on the subsequent sale value of your car. It is therefore important to have legal support when insisting that your car is repaired by the garage of your choice.
 

Also remember if your car has been extensively damaged that even with a manufacturer approved repair, it is human nature that if two similar cars are for sale and one has had extensive repairs and the other has not, the repaired car will be less saleable. We often obtain additional compensation in such circumstances, as recognition of the reduced value of your car.
