The victims of road traffic accidents who suffer personal injury and bear no fault for the cause of the accident have a legal right to claim damages. The importance of being represented by a specialist car accident solicitor cannot be overestimated.

Compensation in personal injury claims falls into two main categories known as “special damages” and “general damages” :-
Special Damages represents past and future losses that can be calculated accurately and do not need to be assessed which includes care costs and loss of income.
General Damages represents compensation for items that a judge must assess which includes pain and suffering for physical and psychological injury together with compensation for compromised ability to function or perform previous daily necessities or recreational activities.

The success of an accident compensation claim usually depends on the evidence put forward by a car accident solicitor. Rapid Solicitors recommend that you make a detailed record of every relevant fact relating to the incident. In most jurisdictions, in order to succeed in an accident compensation claim, it must be proved that the accident was caused by the negligence of another person. In some jurisdictions there is a non-fault compensation scheme in operation. Most claims are settled by agreement however if not, legal proceedings must be issued in a court of law within three years of the date of the accident or the opportunity to claim compensation may be lost forever. There are some exceptions to this general rule.
