Our expert team is dedicated to offering support from start to finish, helping you understand your rights and options after an accident.
How to File a Car Accident Claim
Building a successful car accident claim requires solid evidence. The stronger your documentation, the better your chances of securing fair compensation.
- Police Report
- Medical Records
- Photographic Evidence
- Witness Statements
- Insurance Information
- Vehicle Repair Estimates
Timeframe to Make a Car Accident Claim
It’s important to act quickly after a car accident. In most cases, the standard time limit to make a claim is three years from the date of the accident. However, the specific timeframes can vary depending on the details of your case:
- Injury Claims: You typically have up to three years from the date of the accident to file a personal injury claim.
- Claims for Minors: If the injured party is under 18, the three-year limit begins from their 18th birthday.
- Mental Incapacity: For individuals unable to manage their own legal matters, there is no time limit until they regain mental capacity.
Expected Compensation for Car Accident Claims
The amount of compensation you can expect from a car accident claim depends on various factors, including the severity of the injuries and the financial losses incurred. Compensation is typically awarded in two categories:
- General Damages
- Special Damages
In some cases, claimants may also receive interim payments, which are partial payouts made before a final settlement if the other party admits liability. This helps cover immediate expenses, such as medical bills or lost wages.
By working closely with your legal advisor, you can ensure that all necessary evidence is gathered to build a strong case and achieve the maximum possible compensation.
