Common Car/Whiplash Accident Questions
Yes, you can. Though whiplash claims have come under fire recently, it can be a serious medical problem that can cause pain in the neck, back and head. Whiplash can be a severe problem and should be compensated accordingly.
You might still be able to claim if you have other evidence, but you should see a doctor as soon as possible as some medical problems can take some time to show. Medical evidence can be one of the most important supports of your case.
Yes, absolutely. It doesn’t matter if you were in a hired car, company car, bus or taxi, you can still make a claim if you suffered an injury on the road that wasn’t your fault.
Yes. Anyone in the car that suffered an injury can claim compensation. Pedestrians and other road users such as cyclists can also make a claim.
Who you claim against when you’ve had a road accident depends on the type of accident you’ve had. If you’re in an accident with another vehicle that wasn’t your fault -regardless of whether you were a pedestrian, cyclist, passenger or driver- you will be claiming against the insurance company of the person responsible for the accident. If the accident was caused due to poor or neglected road surfaces, then you could be claiming against the local authority.
If you’ve had an injury, see a medical professional as soon as possible and keep a record. This could be X-Rays, photographs, doctors letters or any details of medical visits. Keep the receipts of any out-of-pocket expenses, like prescriptions or travel costs to and from hospital. If you’ve had to miss work, get a letter from your employer stating the hours and income you have, or will, lose. By having this information to hand, you’ll make the process of claiming for compensation much easier for yourself. You can receive compensation for medical costs, transport costs, damage to your vehicle, and a lump sum or for your loss of earnings.
Keep as detailed a record of events as you can. Collecting the details of other involved in the accident, the circumstances of the events and any medical records will make your claim much stronger. Make a folder containing the information or photographs you have collected at the scene and any relevant receipts or information, and be sure to bring it with you when you make an appointment with us.
