RTA Solicitors for Road Accident Claims

Law Society Accredited  Personal Injury Solicitors

If you have been injured in a road accident, whether in a car, on a bike or as a pedestrian, we know how difficult it can be to cope on your own. The injury itself will be causing you pain and suffering but it can also place limitations on your lifestyle.

Additionally, you may also be suffering from a loss of income which can add further strain to your situation. It may be the case that your vehicle is out of action too and this may cost you further financial loss.

We may be able to arrange for your vehicle to be repaired and place you in a hire vehicle if necessary.

Our specialist motor accident solicitors can help you with everything, from claiming for your personal injury and your losses, such as loss of earnings and travel expenses to arranging private medical treatment and rehabilitation to assist in your recovery and get your life back on track.

Pursuing compensation for your road accident is not something you have to do on your own, you need specialist advice. Trust us to help you.

*Please note that new regulations apply for all car accidents after the 01/06/21 and compensation will now be awarded as per a Government tariff scheme.

No Win No Fee Road Traffic Accident & Injury Claims

  • No charges, even if your RTA claim is unsuccessful
  • No ATE Insurance to pay
  • Direct access to your own qualified solicitor
  • We don't pay referral fees... so you keep more of your compensation
Law Society Accredited - Personal Injury

Warning - DO NOT claim through your insurance company if you have a road accident.

Your insurance company may "sell" your case on to one of the large factory law firms, usually the highest bidder and possibly, the worst performer

This is why we bombarded with calls from lawyers as soon as you report your accident to your insurers. For a much better service contact, a specialist accident claims solicitor of your own choice.

Fixed Legal Costs – Injury Compensation Awards below £5,000

 

If your case is successfully concluded for under £5,000.00 then you will receive compensation subject to the fixed legal costs as set out below. These fixed legal costs are calculated based on the separate awards for both your tariff and non tariff injuries. If your case is unsuccessful then you will obviously receive no compensation but you will have no legal costs to pay.

Legal costs relating to tariff injuries are fixed and are calculated based upon the level of compensation that your tariff injury qualifies for.

The injury tariff is set by the Government and is shown in the table below.

Compensation Guide

New Regulations on Compensation Calculation for Soft Tissue Injury Following a Car Accident

Compensation Calculator

 

The figures detailed above are non-negotiable, they are a set tariff which the government has introduced.  Compensation awards for soft tissue injuries resulting from a car accident are now approximately only 25% of the value of compensation awards made for accidents before the 1st of June 2021.

Personal injury clients will be sent for a medical examination where the examiner will indicate a likely recovery period.  The Medical expert decides and records in his report - the fixed amount of compensation you will receive. 

Please note that this only applies to soft tissue injuries following a car accident that occurred after the 1st of June 2021.

 

Legal Costs Relating to Non-Tariff Injuries

Legal costs relating to non tariff injuries are additional to the above fixed costs for tariff injuries are fixed and are calculated based upon the level of compensation that your non tariff injury receives:

Non tariff injury value                                    Costs

Up to £1000.00                                                   £250.00

Between £1000.00 and £2,000.00                £500.00

Between £2000.00 and £3,000.00                £750.00

Between £2,000.00 and £4,000.00                £1000.00

Between £4,000.00 and £5,000.00                £1250.00

 

Legal Costs for Injury Awards above £5,000

 

If the tariff and non tariff compensation awards exceed £5,000.00 then your case will no longer be subject to the Fixed Legal Costs as outlined above.

Instead, you will receive compensation subject to the agreed deductions as set out in the Conditional Fee Agreement and limited to a total of 25% of the damages you receive. If your case is unsuccessful then you will obviously receive no compensation but you will have no legal costs to pay.

Our costs are inclusive of VAT.
