Claiming Compensation For Whiplash Injuries

Road accidents happen quite regularly, and everybody knows someone who has been in an accident at some point. If you are unlucky enough to have been involved in a car accident, you will know how unsettling it can be, and how much there is to sort out in the aftermath. As well as the material things - courtesy cars, repairs or perhaps even a new car to replace your last one - you may be suffering from a number of personal injuries. Whiplash is the most common injury after a road traffic accident, but you may also have bruises and scratches elsewhere, and could experience headaches, dizziness, nausea and a number of other ailments.

Personal injury compensation is easy to claim, and you could potentially receive a maximum payment of £16000. The minimum payment that you will receive for a whiplash claim is £1000, and if you find an experienced company that operates on a ‘no win no fee’ basis, you can guarantee that you will keep 100% of the compensation that you are awarded.

Making a whiplash claim is a very simple procedure, and the amount that you will receive will depend on the severity of your whiplash injury. Because whiplash is a soft tissue injury, it can vary greatly in severity. It is caused when the head is jolted forwards and then backwards quickly, causing a sudden extension of the muscles in the neck. This is why you get an aching feeling for a long time afterwards - in its simplest form, whiplash is a case of over stretched muscles. However, this can happen by a small amount, or by quite a lot, depending on the kind of accident you have suffered. The first thing to establish when you begin the claims process, is the severity of your injury. If you contact a solicitor and ask them to begin proceedings on your behalf, they will probably arrange for you to visit a doctor or specialist to check the extent of your injuries. The doctor will then confirm your injuries, and your solicitor can continue to act on your behalf to get you the compensation you deserve. This medical examination means that it is essential for you to file your claim in a timely manner. Failing to act quickly may mean that you injuries get better before you can have a medical examination, and this could decrease the amount of compensation that you are eligible for. Some insurance companies will also refuse to pay compensation for accidents that happened after a certain time period - if you leave it too long you might find that are not able to receive compensation. Providing information in a timely manner is also essential once you have instructed your solicitor to begin proceedings. They may well need you to provide information on your accident, such as the details of any witnesses, any pictures of injuries or damages that you may have, and lists of personal property that was lost or damaged in your car accident - if you had anything in the boot for example that was damaged. Responding in a timely manner will help your claim to progress quickly, and your whiplash compensation should be awarded in no time!
