Even accidents that do not result in injury can be traumatic experiences. You find yourself dealing with insurance companies or solicitors and usually suffer considerable inconvenience during the claims process.

It has to be said however, that there have been huge changes and improvements across the motor insurance industry as far as customer service is concerned.

In 2001 the Association of British Insurers introduced the Claims Code to streamline how customers (and accident victims) were to be treated by insurers.

Read more here about the Claims Code operated by the insurance industry. This code is designed to act as a template for the way insurers treat their customers with heavy emphasis on fairness and reasonableness. If you have any problems with an insurance claim - contact the Financial Ombudsman service.

What to do if you are involved in a car accident

First things first seek appropriate medical help. You must always receive a medical check up even if you feel that your injuries are not severe. You do not necessarily have to go to your local Accident & Emergency hospital but we would always recommend that you do if this is at all possible. At the hospital they can perform checks that your GP is simply not able to and usually you will receive a more accurate diagnosis from a more qualified doctor. However if you feel your injuries do not warrant emergency assistance you can visit your GP who will provide basic medical advice. Whatever you do make sure you obtain medical advice of some nature on your injuries.

We can assist you if you have suffered a personal injury in the workplace as a result of the negligence of another employee or your employer.

Or if you have been involved in a tripping or slipping accident on the street or other public place.

You may have suffered injury as a result of medical negligence - we can help you with clinical negligence enquiries.

We also deal with criminal injury CICA claims following an assault in the UK

SPEEDING - the facts

Speed is probably the single most common cause of road accidents that we come across. The majority of the claims that we deal with (around 60%) involve whiplash injuries resulting from rear end collisions. Speed is nearly always a factor in such incidents. Here are some facts about speed:

Speed contributes to 40,000 serious car crash injuries and 1,000 deaths that occur on Britain's roads annually.

More than two thirds of all accidents in which people are killed or seriously injured occur in zones where the speed limit is 40mph or less

At 35mph you are twice as likely to kill someone as would be at 30mph.
