Car Accident Compensation Guide

Sunday June 27, 2010 at 8:25pm
The United Kingdom has a very good record for road safety compared with most other European Union countries.

However, the Office of National Statistics estimated that between 2004 and 2005 there were 271,000 road casualties of all severity in Great Britain.

Some injuries are very serious and can cause long term disability. A specialist personal injury lawyer can help you claim car accident compensation that you deserve.


What you need to do after your accident

If you have been injured, the six key steps you need to take are:

• Write down the registration number of the other vehicle;
• Take the names of the witnesses and their telephone numbers;
• Call ambulance and the police without delay;
• Attend hospital or your GP without delay
• When you are able, note down on paper how the accident happened;
• If you were a passenger on a bus, contact the bus company and report the accident.

This Guide was prepared by Balinda & Co who have many years personal injury experience and have helped a lot of people who have suffered injuries to get compensation.
