Road Traffic Accident
If you have been involved in a road traffic accident, which was caused by the other driver, as the car driver or owner you can claim:
Cost of the repair – we can
arrange for your vehicle to be repaired in accordance with our qualified engineer’s
report and for the repair invoice to be paid by the other driver’s insurance
company.
Write-off value – if your car is damaged
beyond repair, we can arrange for it to be valued by our engineer and obtain
a cheque for the write-off value from the other driver’s insurers.
Replacement car hire – whilst your car
is being repaired or you are awaiting a cheque to replace your vehicle, we
can arrange for a hire car to be provided so that you are not further inconvenienced.
Out-of-pocket expenses – any reasonable
expenses, which you incur as a result of the accident, may be claimed on your
behalf.
Compensation for injuries – if you were
injured in the accident, we will arrange a medical examination and will include
a claim for compensation on your behalf.
Loss of earnings – if you lose wages as
a result of the accident, or profits if you are self-employed, we can include
a claim to recover those monies for you.
Even if you were just a passenger in a car involved in a traffic accident, you may still be entitled to claim compensation for your injuries. Again, we will advise you on your case, arrange a medical examination and provide you with an early indication of what your claim will be worth.
