Car accident claims
Your car accident claim could include personal injury compensation, rehabilitation support, and damages for loss of personal items.
Passenger accident claims
Passenger accident claims are recovered from the insurance provider of the party at fault – the responsible driver is unlikely to face direct expenses.
Motorbike accident claims
Your motorbike accident claim could involve securing compensation for loss of personal items (e.g. clothing) alongside your personal injury claim.
Cyclist accident compensation
Cyclist accident compensation may be available if you have been injured in a cycling accident due to negligence on behalf of another road user.
Uninsured driver / Untraced driver claims
If you have been involved in a road accident with an uninsured driver, we may be able to help you to secure maximum personal injury compensation.
Special damages
If you have been injured in a road accident that wasn’t your fault, you may be entitled to special damages as part of your personal injury compensation claim. Special damages may be awarded to compensate you for any out of pocket expenses associated with your road traffic accident.
Special damages compensation typically relates to three main areas:
Property damages
Property damages may be awarded to offset the costs of repairing or replacing any personal items that have been damaged as a result of your road traffic accident. Examples include:
- Clothing, jewellery
- Mobile phone, laptop
- Car (i.e. the cost of repairing or replacing your vehicle)
Medical damages
Medical damages may be awarded to offset the cost of any reasonable and necessary medical treatment required as a result of your road traffic accident. Examples include:
- Home visits (e.g. nursing staff, carers)
- Physiotherapy, medical aids, travel costs to and from medical appointments
- ‘Gratuitous care’ – compensation towards the costs of care provided by family
Loss of earnings
Damages towards loss of earnings may be awarded where time away from work is authorised by a doctor. You may also be eligible to claim for loss of future earnings where your injury prevents an immediate return to the workplace.
