Some of the most common types of personal injury claim are those made by drivers or passengers who have been injured in car accidents. While there are many procedures and laws in place to ensure that our roads are safe, there are unfortunately many accidents and collisions that take place each day, and these can cause people many different kinds of injury.

If you have been involved in a car accident and it was not your fault, you may be able to make a personal injury claim. Contact Nigel Askew Solicitors today to understand how we will help you gain maximum compensation for your injuries.

You might be reluctant to make a claim because someone you know was driving. You might even be partly to blame. Do not let this put you off contacting us. We will explain the legal process in full, without any obligation and can usually give an early indication of your prospects of success and what your claim might be worth.

Each case is different. Don’t rely on an unqualified claims handler to pursue your claim. If you do, the unique circumstances of your case and the full extent of your injuries might not be fully considered before you agree to a settlement.

If we take on your case, we will investigate all of the circumstances of your accident personally. It always helps if you take photos of the scene showing debris on the road or other signs that might indicate what caused the car accident.

If you have been injured in a car accident, you could be eligible to make a claim if the accident was not your fault. Many drivers and passengers are injured when, for example, another car hits the vehicle they are travelling in. In cases like this, when no blame can be attached to the injured driver or passenger, an injury claim can be made which can result in a compensation payout which will often be determined by the severity of the injury.
