If you are able, it is a good idea to take the names and contact details of anyone who witnessed the accident. If the party responsible for the road traffic accident has no valid insurance or is driving a stolen vehicle you should contact the police immediately.

If you wish to pursue a claim, you can complete a personal injury claims form to arrange a free, no obligation consultation. In this consultation, you can discuss your case with one of our specialist road traffic accident solicitors who will study the circumstances of your injuries and the merits of your claim. This consultation will also review any costs that you may have incurred as a result of the accident, including medical treatment, lost earnings and alternative transport.
