How To Make A Successful Car Accident
Claim
A car accident is never the same, similar but never
the same. So logically a car accident claim can
never be the same. Accidents do on the other hand occur
in the millions every year, however making a successful
compensation claim is difficult to get right if you
don't make the right moves.
All Car Accidents Are Unique
There's one thing you need to beware of and that is accident
'management' companies either attending the scene or hospital.
Theses are salespeople who work on a commission basis.
You always have the good and the bad ones. Your job would
be to distinguish the good from the bad.
99% of the time, these people will want your
injury
claim. Even if it means by-passing the small print!
Another thing to note is, never listen to previous case
success stories. What happened in the last case cant
be guaranteed in your case. So don't fall for the money,
settlement time or success stories.
Tips To Make A Successful Car Accident Claim
Car
accident injury claims are major players in the
'personal injury litigation' market. They are straightforward
as liability is admitted and vital information is exchanged
at the scene. Information such as driver and insurance
details, where the accident took place, when and how.
If the police attend the scene, both parties will be given
a producer, which states that the accident did occur.
Further from there it will be logged on the national database
for any inquires.
Now For The Secrets...
A 'quality' accident
solicitor will explain the procedures in 'full'
and then ask if you have any questions. Don't ever say
NO! You could be falling into
a trap.
Do ask these important questions such as
• Will I get the 'whole' of my
compensation? If yes continue
• Will I need to pay a fee? If no continue
• Do you recover costs from the other side (i.e.
people at fault)? If yes continue
• Would I need to pay anyone any money once my claim
is settled? If no proceed.
Passengers In A Car Accident
Passengers are innocent victims in a vehicle and can
be from either, the fault or non-fault side. Passengers
are not in-charge of the vehicle at hand. Therefore they
can always make a successful compensation claim provided
they have been to a hospital or visited a doctor.
A passenger can be in the form of, a husband, wife, child,
cousin or a friend, at fault or not, they are entitled
to make a car
accident claim. They can make a claim against the
people who have hit them whilst in the car.
Liability acceptance for an accident can cause confusion
in itself. Do you think it was your fault?
Either way, you can still make a successful claim!
If on the other hand you are the driver and it is
your fault, then you wont have any
success of making a claim, however, the passengers will.
Payment Factors
There are circumstances where compensation
payments are reduced for a number of reasons. The
most common ones are for not wearing a seat belt, which
marginally reduces the payment by 25%. Another major factor
is for drink driving. If a passenger knowledgeably knew
the driver was unfit to drive due to excess intoxication,
a reduction will be made accordingly.
There are cases where the driver admits part liability
on a proportion basis. Generally its 50/50, but it needs
to be assessed by an investigator who will examine who's
at fault before concluding. There are even some cases
that result to 80/20.
Decision Dilemmas
You DO NOT need to hold back
thinking it was your friends or family's car. They pay
insurance premiums every year to ensure if anything happens,
they're covered and so are their passengers. You also
need NOT WORRY if you were in
a taxi, bus, train or any other form of public transport.
You can still proceed with an accident
compensation claim, as the drivers are insured, as
is the taxi, train and bus driver. Companies pay thousands
every year in insurance premiums to cover passengers for
these unfortunate accidents and injuries.
On speaking to a quality car accident solicitor
will you be able to eliminate doubts in your head about
payments, fees and procedures!
It's easy to proceed with a car
accident compensation claim and gain maximum results
