What is the time limit for a road accident claim?
The standard time limit for making a road traffic accident claim is three years from the date of the accident.
There are some important exceptions to this rule which you should be aware of. For example, if you are making a claim on behalf of a child, you will have until they are 18 years old to make a claim. When they are 18, they can make a claim themselves until the age of 21.
Another exemption is where you are making a claim on behalf of a loved one who lacks mental capacity to make a claim themselves, such as if they have suffered a brain injury. There are no time limits in these situations.
Do I have to go to court to make a traffic accident claim?
Most road accident claims can be settled out of court. This means that our solicitors can minimise the stress you may be facing and settle claims much more efficiently.
There may be certain situations where an agreement cannot be reached, such as if the defendant denies the claim or the compensation value. If so, it might be necessary to go to court to reach a settlement. If you do need to go to court for your claim, our team in Swindon can offer support throughout the process.
I’m unhappy with my solicitor, can I transfer my road traffic accident claim to Novum Law?
Our road traffic accident solicitors are often contacted by individuals who have started a claim with another firm but are not happy with the results. This may be because a claim is taking too long or the settlement is lower than they expected.
If you have started a road traffic accident claim with another firm and you are not happy with the outcome, our team can offer you a second opinion. Our team have successfully taken on many claims from other firms and has plenty of experience in settlement claims and securing high settlements.
