If you have been injured in a road traffic accident that was not your fault, we can help you claim compensation.

We deal with claims for clients who have been injured in all types of road traffic accidents including:

  • Bicycle accidents
  • Accidents involving a bus or coach
  • Accidents involving a lorry
  • Motorcycle accidents
  • Pedestrian accidents
  • Claims against uninsured drivers
  • Claims against untraced drivers
  • Passenger claims

We have experience in dealing with different types of injuries suffered including:

  • Whiplash injuries
  • Soft tissue injuries
  • Fractures
  • Back injury
  • Traumatic amputation
  • Facial injuries
  • Multiple injuries
  • Head injury
  • Spinal injury
  • Fatal accidents
  • Psychological injury

We have acted for many clients who have sustained a wide range of injuries caused by road traffic accidents, from fractures to head injuries.  As well as compensation for the injuries themselves and the pain and suffering and reduced quality of life, we have also helped clients to recover compensation for loss of earnings and travel expenses as well as other things like care and equipment costs. 

We understand that being off work even for just a few weeks can cause financial hardship.  We will work to recover an interim payment for you whenever possible.

Depending on the extent of the injuries suffered, awards range from a thousand pounds to over a million pounds.  In all cases, we understand that our clients' lives have suffered and we.will work to achieve the best possible results for you.

What our clients say

  • "Since my accident I have had to adjust to many changes. Chris Whiteley and the team have been tremendous in the many ways they have helped me...

    and my partner. Right from the start, just after my accident, they worked tirelessly on my behalf making sure I received the right amount of damages for my accident. The compensation they got for me has enabled me to secure a good standard of living. I have bought a new home, a car and I receive all the medical support I need when I need it. Most importantly, I am able to continue to live independently."
