Frequently asked questions about Road Traffic Accidents
- What is the claims process?
-
In many road accident cases we use the Fast Track claims portal which usually takes 4-6 months for cases settling at Stage 2, or 11 months for cases settling at Stage 3. Claims not processed through the claims portal usually take 12-16 months.
If we can represent you in your claim, we’ll start to gather the evidence right away. We’ll write to witnesses, get a statement from you and notify the party you hold responsible for your injury that you’re taking legal action.
Your Personal Injury Solicitor can then work to obtain copies of your medical records and arrange an appointment with an independent medical expert, so they can write up a report on your injuries.
That can help us assess the value of your claim, as well as prove useful evidence if the other party denies liability and Court proceedings need to be issued.
Most road accident claims settle out of Court, but if your case does go to Court, we’ll support you throughout the case.
- How long do I have to make a claim?
-
You can claim for a road traffic accident within three years of it taking place. However, we’d suggest you make your claim as early as you can, as that means we’ll have more time to build a strong case for compensation.
Children who have suffered a personal injury have three years from their 18th birthday to make a claim.
- What funding is available?
-
Road Traffic Accident cases can often be funded through a No Win, No Fee agreement. Ask for us for details.
