GENERAL NOTES
CAR ACCIDENT COMPENSATION CLAIMS
Even the
most minor of car accidents can lead to severe disruption for you or
your family. Most accidents do not involve personal injury and therefore
the inconvenience caused relates mainly to the repair or replacement
car cost. You may also need a courtesy car or hire car whilst your
own vehicle is immobile and very often this can cause problems.

DO I NEED A CAR ACCIDENT SOLICITOR?
You do not
necessarily need a solicitor to pursue a claim but if you have suffered
personal injury in a car accident - it is highly recommended that you do
in fact instruct one. Insurers would be quite happy for you to deal
direct with them because they have experienced staff who will negotiate
a quick and potentially satisfactory settlement for you. But your
chances of a fair settlement are substantially reduced if you do not use
a personal injury solicitor.
Your
solicitor will advise you of exactly what you are entitled to claim and
what level of compensation you should receive. The solicitor will then
negotiate a fair settlement on your behalf ensuring that you recover
everything that you are entitled to. Do not accept anything less.

WHAT ABOUT LOANS AND INJURY CLAIM INSURANCE?
We do not
ask you to pay interest or take out a loan on any insurance that we deem
necessary to fight your case. If our solicitor decides that you do in
fact need insurance to protect your interests then they will obtain this
at no cost to you. Read more here.
DO I RECEIVE 100% CAR ACCIDENT COMPENSATION
Yes - you do
receive 100% of your compensation. We do not make any deductions from your
claim because your damages reflect your pain and suffering. Its your
compensation and not ours.
WHAT CAN I CLAIM FOR
If you make
a road accident claim and in addition claim for personal injury relating
to you or
your passengers, you will be entitled to:
Vehicle
repair or market value (write off's), car hire, loss of use &
inconvenience, loss or damage to personal effects, depreciation, loss of
earnings.
In relation
to personal injury you can claim for - pain and suffering, loss of
amenity, treatment costs (most insurers will place you on a free physio
program if such treatment is recommended and liability admitted) and potentially other items in the case of more serious
personal injuries.
CAN PASSENGERS CLAIM ALSO?
Absolutely.
When you are injured whilst travelling as a passenger you are perfectly
entitled to claim for damages caused by the negligence of another party
- even the driver of your vehicle.
