After an accident, your injuries may require treatment that need to be paid for. Your injuries may force you to take time off work, resulting in loss of earnings. If you were involved in a road traffic accident and your car has been written off or requires repairs, you would have to pay for a temporary replacement vehicle to continue with your day-to-day. But should you pay the price for someone else's fault?

By claiming compensation, we will help you claim back as much of what you lost as possible as a result of the accident.

Every accident has a limitation period. This is the length of time allowed for you to start your claim before it expires. For most accidents, you will have 3 years after the accident to claim. If it happened in air or at sea, then you have 2 years to claim.

If you are worried about whether you can still make a claim or not, give us a call and speak to one of our claim advisors. Our first line call handlers are highly experienced and can advise you more appropriately according to your case.

People of all ages can claim compensation. The only limitation is that the UK law prevents anyone under the age of 18 years from filing their own personal injury claim. Instead, a parent or legal guardian can represent the child and file a compensation claim on behalf of the child.

You can start a claim even if you haven’t seen a doctor after the accident. It is, however, advised that you do see a medical expert even if there are no visible signs of injury. A medical expert can locate any hidden injuries caused by the accident; they can treat your injuries and advise you with your recovery; and most importantly for your claim, they can officially document your medical assessment and attendance.

Only 3% of cases we handle go to trial. The court is seen as a last resort when neither side can come to an agreement on liability (the fault of the accident), or settlement offer, or other.

We will always try to do everything we can to settle a case before it reaches the court. In the event it does reach the court, we will fully support and prepare you for this.
