Road Traffic Accident
Road traffic accidents are common in the UK. There are on average 900 reported accidents per day that can range from minor bumps to serious collisions which can cause physical injury and financial loss. A road traffic accident (RTA) claim involves seeking compensation for injuries and any other losses resulting from a vehicle collision.
We ensure you receive appropriate compensation for your injuries and reimbursement for any additional losses caused.
What You Can Claim For
If you've been involved in a road traffic accident that wasn't your fault, you may be entitled to compensation. Here are some of the most common types of claims:
personal Injury
This includes any physical and psychological injuries sustained due to the accident. Compensation can cover pain and suffering, medical expenses and any ongoing treatment costs.
Vehicle Damage
You can claim for the cost of repairing your vehicle or, if it's deemed a total loss (write-off), the market value of the vehicle at the time of the accident. It's important to keep all receipts and documentation to support your claim.
Hire Costs
If you need a replacement vehicle while yours is being repaired you can claim the cost of hiring a car.
Loss of Earnings
If your injuries prevent you from working, you can claim for lost wages and any potential future earnings.
Time Limits
It’s important to be aware of the time limits for making a road traffic accident claim:
Adults
You have three years from the date of the accident to file a claim.
Minors
If the injured party is under 18, the three-year time limit begins on their 18th birthday, giving them until they turn 21 to make a claim.
