Road Traffic Accident Compensation

Get compensation for a road traffic accident

Why seek compensation after a road traffic accident?

The Department for Transport has reported that in 2008, there were over 230,000 casualties caused by road traffic accidents. A variety of factors contributed to these accidents, including drivers failing to look properly, driving over the speed limit or driving too fast for the road conditions. An estimated six per cent of these injuries were the result of someone driving whilst over the legal alcohol limit.

All of these cases have one thing in common: somebody was at fault. All users of the road owe a duty of care to the other drivers and pedestrians around them. When a breach in this duty results in a road traffic accident, then the injured victim is entitled to compensation - whether the injury was whiplash, a back injury, head trauma or broken bones.

Those who have suffered injury in a road traffic accident that wasn't their fault may also be entitled to payment for other financial losses they have suffered - such as missing out on pay during their recuperation.
