New and Convenient Systems in Making a Car Accident Injury Claim
If you have been injured in a car accident due to another party’s negligence, you can now be entitled to make a car accident injury claim under a “no win no fee” agreement. This means that any solicitor who agrees to take your case will see you through the process without charging you a single penny. Now, who says making a claim is costly?
The roads in the UK are relatively wider and more convenient for traffic compared to other countries in the world, yet surprisingly, car accidents are still quite a common occurrence. Naturally, making claims is quite a busy business. Anyway, as long as your accident is someone else’s fault, you are entitled to file a car accident injury claim on a “no win no fee” agreement. Aside from not having to shell out any money for the process, another good thing about this agreement is that you are almost always sure to win. No solicitor will be very confident to take on your case in the first place if your car accident injury claim is baseless. This is especially if the accident was the third parties complete fault. In fact, given the scenario, you may even file for a “fast track” claim.
A fast track car accident injury claim procedure means you can get the full settlement in just a matter of weeks instead of the usual months or years. You may also be given the option to get a part of the settlement, which could run to as much as £1,000 pounds.
To qualify in the fast track system, here are the following requirements:
- The other party should have a valid insurance plan.
- The full liability of the accident should be accepted by the other party’s insurance company. If you have any role in the accident, or you were partly negligent too, you will not be eligible for a fast track claim. Of course, you may still make a claim, but the amount of settlement would be reduced by how much you were at fault.
- The accident date must fall on or after the 30th of April 2010.
- The total value of your car accident injury claim should not be more than £10,000 pounds. This includes any claim for rehabilitation cost as well as any loss of earnings. However, the said overall value doesn’t cover the car damage and all related expenses to it, like the repair and the payment for a hire vehicle that you may need to use while your own is still under repair.
Having said all this, you may now have realized that making a car accident injury claim is not really supposed to be that taxing. You can now get a free lawyer who could ensure your claim’s success as well as have the full amount of settlement in a few weeks’ time. With these new possibilities in filing a car accident injury claim, you can now concentrate on getting your life back on track and relieve yourself from further stress that the accident has caused you and your family.
