Road Traffic Accident
If you have been involved in a motor bike accident or other road accident and suffered personal injury – either as a driver, pedestrian, motorcycle rider/pillion or cyclist – you may be entitled to claim for your personal injury and any other losses if someone else was at fault.
Causes of accident claims include:
- Collision with another vehicle;
- Falls from trying to avoid a vehicle;
- Falls from hitting a defect in the road;
- Pedestrian being hit by a vehicle.
Road traffic accidents can result in personal injuries from cuts and bruises or minor whiplash to serious knee injury, muscle injury, brain injury or spinal injury.
In most road accident claims, the insurance company of the person who was at fault pays compensation. Even in the case of an uninsured or ‘hit and run’ driver it is possible to claim personal injury compensation through the Motor Insurers Bureau, an organisation established to compensate the victims of negligent, uninsured or untraced motorists.
Whether your injury was relatively minor or you received a serious brain or spinal injury, your claim will be allocated to our specialist team. Let our accident compensation solicitors advise you of your rights and the extent of your personal injury compensation.
