No Win No Fee accident compensation solicitors 

Despite being demonised by the government and press, road traffic accidents occur every day, and those injured, deserve to receive personal injury compensation. 
 
In 2019 alone there were 125,592 slightly injured casualties in reported road traffic accidents reported to the police. In total, there were 153,315 casualties of all severities in reported road traffic accidents. A total of 1,748 people were killed in reported road traffic accidents in Great Britain in 2019, a similar number to the 1,784 deaths reported in 2018. This figure is also similar to the level of fatalities seen since 2012, which followed a period of substantial reduction in fatalities from 2006 to 2010. 
 
If you have been injured in a road traffic accident, then MG Legal’s expert team of personal injury solicitors believe our clients should have access to justice, on a no win no fee basis, with no upfront costs, or legal jargon. Our personal injury solicitors have a success rate in excess of 99% and settle thousands of personal injury claims on a yearly basis. If you have been injured in a road traffic accident, MG Legal’s trusted personal injury experts are here to help.  
 
When you instruct MG Legal's personal injury claims specialists, you do so with the confidence that all personal injury claims we accept are subject to a no win no fee agreement, meaning we only get paid if your claim is successful. Our team of road traffic accident claim solicitors have acted for injured clients in any type of traffic accident you can possibly imagine, and specialise in everything from motorcycle accidents, to horse traffic accidents, to electric scooter road traffic accidents, and we have the confidence to know that if we accept your personal injury claim on a no win no fee basis, we will end up winning your case. 

How do I Claim Compensation after a Car Accident? 

Road traffic accidents can often leave you with long-term injuries. At MG Legal, we have seen all types of injuries, from spinal injuries, to knee injuries, to burns and scars, and if you have been injured, it may not always be that clear where to start, if you are looking to pursue a claim for compensation.  
 
Yes, we know that every other advert on daytime television is asking you to phone some injury lawyer or other, but what do you do to claim compensation from a leading, local, qualified personal injury solicitor, who has trained for years to obtain a proper qualification? Some people, especially those who are seriously injured in a road traffic accident, do not have a clue where to start. Obviously, there will be paperwork to fill in. But where do you get this from? And do you have to use the personal injury solicitors recommended by your own motor insurers?  
 
Let's simplify matters. If you have been injured in a road traffic accident the first thing you should do is contact MG Legal’s local personal injury solicitors. MG Legal's solicitors have over 30 years' experience of handling serious road traffic accident claims. We are experts in winning compensation for those injured in road traffic accidents, and the advice we give you will be impartial, easy to understand, and with no obligation to instruct our personal injury solicitors, after you have discussed your potential injury claim with our solicitors, and we have put your mind at rest, and you on the right track to making a successful claim for personal injury compensation. 
 
When you have been in a road traffic accident, more often than not, some motor insurance companies will contact you, and attempt to settle your claim for compensation directly, often making a low offer, to settle your claim there and then. If you are injured in a car accident, it is important for you to seek the best legal advice, rather than just accept a low offer, as once settled, you cannot request further personal injury compensation, no matter what injuries come to light later. 
If you have been injured in a road traffic accident, we have set out a guide to the claims process, below, and if you have any questions or queries, or want to instruct our car accident claims solicitors to act for you, on a no win no fee basis, then get in touch for an immediate decision.  
 
Another point to remember is that, you are entitled to instruct any solicitor you choose to pursue your claim for compensation- MG Legal do not pay referral fees to claims management companies, or those people who call you out of the blue, and pester you about having a claim in the last 3 years. If you choose to instruct MG Legal’s team of road traffic accident solicitors, you will benefit of the wealth of knowledge our experts have in all things relating to road traffic accidents, and personal injury compensation

What should I do if I have a Car Accident? 

It’s never the best position to be in. Your car is damaged, you're not able to get to where you were supposed to be going, and to make matters worse, you’ve suffered a personal injury and may well require time off work to recover, or even a trip to the local hospital.  
 
To assist, MG Legal’s traffic accident claims team have made a guide to help you in this distressing time. 
 
If safe to do so, and not too injured, exit your vehicle, and ask the driver at fault for the accident for their details. It’s best to get their name, address, details of their vehicle, including the registration number, make, model, colour and so forth. Take insurance details of the other person involved. 
 
Take pictures on your camera or mobile phone, of the cars in the position they are in post collision, and of any road markings. Unless it is absolutely necessary, do not allow the driver at fault to move their vehicle, especially prior to you taking photographic evidence of the position of their car. Often people who admit liability at the scene of a road traffic accident are keen to tell their insurer a different version of events, meaning the evidence you have collected at the scene of the accident becomes very important when settling your injury claim in your favour.  
 
Obtain the name and address of any witness to the incident, including their telephone number and if need be, Facebook account details. Witnesses are often keen to assist, and our solicitors often use witness evidence to settle claims in our clients' favour. Upon receipt of any witness details, our personal injury team obtain a statement from the witness as soon as possible- often witnesses who are keen to assist at first, become less interested in assisting an injured claimant, so best to strike whilst the iron is hot, as they say. 
 
 
If the driver of the other vehicle is not willing to give you their name, address and insurance details, or you believe that they are acting suspicious, then it may be necessary to report the accident to the police, and ask that they attend the accident location. If the police prepare a report of the incident, it may assist your claim for personal injury compensation. If the police arrest the other driver, or charge them with a driving offence, such as driving without due care and attention, or dangerous driving, this will assist you with your claim for personal injury compensation. 
 
If the accident is a hit and run try and get the car registration details of the vehicle involved. If the vehicle was hit and run, or in the hands of a thief at the time of the incident, then the vehicles insurers still may act as insurers subject to the Road Traffic Act 1990, and settle your claim for personal injury damages, and vehicle damage. If the vehicle was uninsured, then MG Legal’s car accident claims solicitors would ask the Motor Insurers’ Bureau to settle your claim for compensation. 
 
Report the car accident to your own insurance company. Remember that, legally, you can choose any solicitor you like to pursue your claim for personal injury compensation, so do not just accept any solicitor your insurance company has a referral deal with. It is always best to choose a solicitor of your choice, and not a huge solicitors’ firm, where you are just a number, and not a valued client. 
 
Contact MG Legal’s car accident claims solicitors for a no obligation chat about how we can assist you to claim personal injury compensation, on a no win no fee basis. If we accept your claim for personal injury compensation, we will get one of our Claim Forms to you the same day. Our aim is to settle your claim on the best terms for you, and obtain compensation for you, including the total loss value of your car, or cost of repair, as quickly as possible.

How long have I got to make a car accident personal injury claim? 

If you are considering claiming compensation for medical negligence or personal injury, it is important to be aware of the time limit for making a claim. This time limit is known as the ‘limitation period’. Subject to the Limitation Act 1980, if you have been injured as a result of a road traffic accident, you have three years from the date of the accident, to pursue a claim for personal injury. This means that Court proceedings must be started by way of issuing a Claim Form at Court within 3 years.  
 
There are circumstances where the 3 year time limit will not start to run until later.  
The most common of these are, for those under 18 years old at time of the injury, in that minors have three years from their 18th birthday within which to make a personal injury claim. Time limits may differ if you are acting on behalf of someone with limited mental capacity, if you are acting as guardian or subject a lasting power of attorney. If you have any questions or queries, then please do not hesitate to contact one of MG Legal’s personal injury experts, for a friendly, informative, no obligation chat.

M60 accident sees 23 year old man arrested for dangerous driving: 

A 23-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving after a BMW overturned on the M60 in what has been described as a ‘horror crash’. The road traffic accident, which occurred on New Year’s Even, saw the BMW overturned and landed on the hard shoulder. 
 
As a result of the dangerous driving road traffic accident, one man in his 20s was rushed to hospital, as he was suffering from serious injuries to his head and leg. It is thought that the road traffic accident occurred when the BMW vehicle had one of its tyres burst. This is a clear example of how dangerous driving can cause harm to both drivers and passengers, with three other men also being in the road traffic accident. If you have been injured in any way in a road traffic accident caused by dangerous driving, then you could be eligible to make a no win no fee road traffic accident claim for financial compensation.
