Car Accident Compensation and Insurance claim Process in UK 

How much accident compensation will I receive for my injuries?

Every compensation claim is different. However, there are guidelines issued by the courts for solicitors. All 'Direct 2 Solicitors' solicitors are experts in handling accident compensation claims and know how to use these guidelines to ensure you receive the right amount of compensation for you injuries. You will be advised once initial evidence has been collected as to the likely level of compensation for your motorcycle accident claim.

What other accident compensation will I receive?

In addition to the award for your injuries, you will also receive compensation for all other losses and expenses reasonably incurred as a result of the accident. Your expert 'Direct 2 Solicitors' solicitor will advise you what expenses you can claim but these are likely to include some or all of the following:

• Replacement bicycle or the cost of repairs to your bicycle
• Damaged clothing
• Lost earnings if you have been away from work as a result of the accident
• Treatment for your injuries
• Miscellaneous expenses (bus fares, painkillers etc).

Examples of successful cycling accident compensation claims

We have dealt with many hundreds of cycling accident compensation claims. Below are some examples of successful claims:

Example 1
John was riding his bicycle along a main road in a residential area. Whilst passing a parked car the driver opened his door without checking for passing traffic, just as John was passing the car. John was knocked from his bicycle into the road. Unfortunately a lorry was behind John and drove over both of his legs. With an expert solicitor John received intensive treatment and made an excellent recovery.

Example 2
Julie was cycling along a busy A road when a lorry failed to leave sufficient room for her whilst overtaking. The lorry knocked her from her bike and she sustained various cuts and bruises. Her bicycle was written off.

She received a new bicycle and compensation for her injuries.

How long do I have to make a claim for accident compensation?

Normally you have three years from the date of your cycling accident to make your claim for compensation. However, in some circumstances this can be extended for an even longer period, for instance if you were not 18 years old at the time of the accident. If you are in any doubt, please call us, email us, or complete our online claim form, and we will be in touch with you promptly to give you advice. There is no charge for assessing your claim, so you have nothing to lose and much to gain if you can make a successful claim.
