Car Accident
Compensation in the UK

In the UK, when a car crash occurs all injured parties are entitled to claim car accident compensation for medical expenses, lost earnings, damage to vehicles and other expenses provided that the accident was not completely their own fault. In order to claim car accident compensation, there must have been negligence of at least one third party. In road traffic accidents there may be more than one third party at fault, and claims for car accident compensation would thus need to be made against each negligent third party. Negligence can be when a driver pulls out from a junction without looking, driving without due care and attention, using a mobile phone at the time of the accident or exceeding the speed limit.

There are many possible ways in which a third party can cause an accident through negligence, and if you are not sure whether you are eligible to make a car accident compensation claim you should speak to a car accident solicitor for advice.

Car Accident Compensation and Medical Treatment

It is important that you seek medical attention as soon as possible following a car accident, either at an emergency room of a hospital or by making an appointment with your GP. Firstly, this ensures that you receive proper medical treatment and your injuries can be properly diagnosed, and secondly it will help you to ultimately receive the car accident compensation that you are rightfully entitled to. This is because in UK, medical reports play a big part in the amount of car accident compensation you receive for your car accident injury claim. Failure to seek medical attention after an accident could even cause your claim for car accident compensation to fail.

How is Car Accident Compensation Calculated in UK?

The amount of car accident compensation which can be claimed varies a great deal from case to case. The more serious your injuries are, the larger the car accident compensation payout you will receive. When you contact our car accident claims advice line we can give you a quick estimate of your entitlement to compensation because our panel of car accident compensation solicitors are highly experienced in all areas of car accident compensation claims.

In UK the amount of car accident compensation you receive can depend on a number of different factors, including:

  • The amount of pain you experience from your physical and psychological injuries
  • How long you experience your pain for
  • What your injuries prevent you from doing, and for how long
  • The extent or your other losses and expenses, including vehicle damage.

For example, the recovery time for a common whiplash injury is difficult to predict. In some instances, an accident victim may make a complete recovery within a couple of weeks, whereas other people could take several months or even years to recover. In a severe case, their whiplash injuries could even be permanent and could stop them from returning to work.

Acting as your solicitor for a car accident compensation claim, we will rely on medical evidence from your doctor and any medical records from your attendance at hospital. In many cases, we will send you to specialist consultants to gather additional medical evidence of your injuries to help substantiate your car accident compensation claim.
