Car Accident Injury Compensation Claims

Injuries Caused By Car Accidents Involving Another Motorist

In order to be able to make a claim, your injuries must have been caused by someone else’s negligence, in other words, your accident must have been someone else’s fault.

Whether the motorist is driving a lorry, car, van, motorbike you will be able to claim against their insurance company who will be responsible for paying any compensation due to you.

If the driver is uninsured or they have fled the scene (hit and run), then you can still claim as the Motor Insurers’ Bureau will pay your compensation.

Contact our team today and we can take the first step in recovering your compensation.

Injuries Caused By Poor Road Conditions

Not all road traffic accidents involve other motorists; some accidents can be caused by poorly maintained roads or other environmental factors that may be out of your control.

If your car accident wasn’t a fault of your own but rather due to a pothole or crack in the road surface, then you can make a claim against the Highway Agency or the local council. This is due to the fact that it is their responsibility to ensure that road surfaces are properly maintained.

In the UK all roads have someone that it is responsible for their maintenance. This means that if you have been in an accident that isn’t your fault and is due to the poor conditions of the road surface then you can still claim.

Whatever the cause of your road traffic accident was, as long as it wasn’t your fault and it was in the last three years then you could be entitled to claim compensation for your injuries. Contact our legally trained team of advisors today to find out how you could make a claim and how we can help you with taking the first steps in recovering your compensation.
