What Happens After You Start a Claim?
Step 3 – Evidence Gathering and Medical Reports
Once you start your claim:
- Your solicitor will gather witness statements, CCTV, and medical evidence.
- You may need to attend a medical assessment.
- You can claim for lost earnings, treatment costs, and more.
Step 4 – Negotiation and Liability
After collecting evidence, we’ll send a Letter of Claim to the responsible party.
The insurer must respond within a set timeframe (typically 3 months) to admit or deny liability.
- If liability is admitted: we negotiate compensation directly.
- If denied: we prepare your case for court.
Most claims are settled before going to court.
Step 5 – Final Settlement or Court
Once a settlement is agreed, funds are paid usually within 4–6 weeks. If we go to court, we continue to support you with expert legal representation. Even court cases are usually resolved within 12–18 months from the start of the claim.
Know Your Rights and Deadlines
Time Limits
You typically have 3 years from the date of the accident to make a personal injury claim.
Exceptions apply for:
- Children (until age 18, then 3 years)
- Mental capacity or serious trauma cases
Delays can hurt your claim, so it’s important to act fast.
