Initiating a Motorbike Accident Claim

Our Personal Injury Fees | Accident at Work FAQs

Motorbike accidents are common, in fact many kinds of accidents are common, but that does not mean you are any less entitled to claim compensation. If you are involved in a motor bike accident which was not your fault you can enter into a motorbike accident claim against the negligent third party. Commonly motorbike accidents are caused by a driver not observing the road properly.

With a wave of adverts calling for ‘check, check and check again’ at junction one would have expected this error to be on the decline.

However, we are all aware of this issue, here at Freeman Harris more than most. With two of our legal team being motorcyclists themselves we are well aware of the risks of being a motorcyclist on the UK’s road and specifically on London’s roads.
