Have you been involved in a vehicle collision?

Want to know about road traffic accident claim settlements?

Are you looking for FREE legal advice?

Our solicitors use the no win no fee scheme and compensation is paid in full. If you would like free advice with no further obligation from a specialist personal injury solicitor just use the helpline or complete and send the contact form.

The no win no fee scheme is a serious encouragement to solicitors to ensure that every case is thoroughly prepared and that court representation is unimpeachable. If the solicitor wins the case then the other side pay the compensation to the client and the legal costs to the solicitor. The solicitor is therefore able to pay compensation in full with no deductions. If however the case is lost, the solicitor does not get paid and in the case of our solicitors loses not only the time in preparation of the case but also the expenses incurred in running the case which often amounts to several thousand pounds. All of the risk in a road traffic accident claim is carried by our solicitors and none is carried by the client. Not only do we operate on a ‘no win no fee’ basis but probably more accurately our service should be described as ‘win or lose no charge’ and ‘compensation paid in full’.

Drivers have a duty of care at law to take reasonable care not to injure or hurt other road users. If you suffer injuries as a result of another road users breach in their duty of care, then you may be able to claim compensation.

If you are involved in an accident that is the result of road disrepair (potholes, spills on the road, defective road repairs etc) a claim for compensation can be made against a Local Authority or The Highway Authority.

The amount of personal injury compensation awarded in a road traffic accident claim will depend on the extent of your injuries and disabilities. Damages may be awarded for pain and suffering both past and future, wages loss both past and future, disadvantage on the job market, loss of amenities of life and all reasonably incurred expenses and losses.

There are time limits in regards to personal injury claims. The law requires that claims be settled or proceedings must be issued in a court of law within three years of the event giving rise to the injury failing which the opportunity to make a road traffic accident claim may be lost forever. There are exceptions to this general rule :

  • Time does not start running until a potential claimant reaches the age of 18 years.
  • Time does not run against a person who is mentally disabled until such time as mental capacity returns. In reality most mentally disabled people will be able to issue proceedings at any time in the future.
  • Time does not start to run until there is knowledge of a significant injury
