Frequently
asked questions
Compensation
Can I get compensation for stress and inconvenience caused by the at-fault driver?
The general rule is that you cannot make a claim for the inconvenience of being in an accident. Losses arising from an accident have to more tangible than just being inconvenienced. Stress, by itself, also isn’t generally something that can be claimed for. It is possible for a claim to be made in respect of an identifiable psychological conditions, such as post-traumatic stress and depression arising as a consequence of an accident, but the stress of going through the process of making a claim is not something that can generally be compensated.
How long does it take to receive compensation?
The time varies depending on case complexity, but we aim to settle claims as quickly as possible.
Can I claim if the accident was partly my fault?
Yes, you may still be entitled to partial compensation, depending on the circumstances.
Do I have to pay upfront fees?
No, we offer a no win, no fee service-no upfront payment required.
How do I know if I’m eligible for compensation?
If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident that wasn’t your fault, you are likely eligible. Contact us to discuss your case further.
