Frequently asked questions

Common questions about accident claims

How long do I have to make a claim?

For most accidents, you have 3 years from the date of the incident to start a claim. For children, the time limit doesn't start until they turn 18. It's best to start as soon as possible while evidence is fresh.

How much could my claim be worth?

Compensation varies greatly depending on the severity of your injury, impact on your life, and financial losses. Minor injuries might result in £1,000-3,000, while severe injuries can be worth significantly more.

What if the accident was partially my fault?

You may still be able to claim even if you were partially at fault. Compensation would be reduced by your percentage of fault, but you could still recover damages for the other party's contribution.

What evidence do I need?

Helpful evidence includes photos of the accident scene, witness contact details, medical records, and any incident reports. However, don't worry if you don't have everything – your solicitor can help gather evidence.

Will I have to go to court?

Most claims settle without going to court. Your solicitor will negotiate with the other party's insurance company to reach a fair settlement. Only a small percentage of cases actually go to trial.
