Car Injury Compensation Claim?
FREE Case Assessment

 

When you have been hurt in a road traffic accident for which you were not to blame, you may be entitled to sue for car injury compensation. Fortunately, due to advances that have been made in car safety technology in recent years, car crashes leading to fatal car injuries are not as numerous as they once were – down 41% in the last decade according to Department for Transport statistics. However, this may be of small consequence to you when you have just been hit from behind by an inattentive driver of another vehicle and are now suffering from a car injury such as whiplash or worse.

In the event of a serious road traffic accident, the police will almost certainly attend the scene as well as an ambulance to attend to the injuries you have sustained in the car crash. In less severe collisions, the police maintain a policy of allowing the drivers to sort the situation out between themselves. Even if you believe that you have sustained a minor car injury, you should still visit a hospital or doctor’s surgery to have a medical check-up. Some symptoms from a car injury can take time to develop. It is better to exercise caution after an accident and to make sure any internal injuries can be properly diagnosed.

Making a Car Injury Compensation Claim

One other important piece of advice to consider if you are interested in making a claim for car injury compensation is to report to your local police station once your injuries have been treated. You should make a report of the accident and the injuries you have sustained, as this can be important when making a car injury compensation claim.

If you have only sustained a minor car injury, you should be able to exchange names, insurance details and car registration numbers with the other driver(s) involved in the car accident. If possible, and if it is safe to do so, you should take a photo of the scene of the accident as this can help to substantiate your claim. A photograph can be taken with the camera facility of a mobile phone or, if this is not possible, you can make a sketch of the accident from what you remember at a later stage. All evidence that you can collect about the car accident can be used to support a car injury compensation claim in addition to your medical records being used as proof of injury.

Car injury compensation claims are frequently straightforward when an inattentive driver has admitted liability. However they should ideally be pursued with the assistance a car injury compensation solicitor. Claims made with professional legal representation have a greater chance of succeeding, and drivers may change their minds at a later stage and deny liability even though they initially admitted to it. A car injury compensation solicitor will also be able to calculate your full entitlement to car injury compensation and will factor in damages for additional elements such as loss of earnings, out of pocket expenses and emotional trauma. Solicitors are also useful sources of information when it comes to establishing a fair and adequate settlement for your car injury and will ensure that you do not receive an insufficient amount from the negligent party´s insurance company.
