Uninsured Drivers Compensation Claims

Uninsured Drivers Compensation Claims

Our Personal Injury Solicitors deal with accident compensation claims against uninsured drivers and untraced motorists on a No Win No Fee basis.

Claims for compensation against uninsured drivers in England and Wales can be made using the Motor Insurers Bureau. The Motor Insurers Bureau is a central fund made up by contributions from all Insurance Companies. Around £30.00 of all insurance premiums goes towards a fund for paying for damages caused by uninsured drivers and untraced motorists.

How to Claim Compensation from the Motor Insurers Bureau

If you have been involved in an accident with an uninsured driver or a motorist that cannot be traced, you should contact the police about the accident right away so that a report or log can be prepared, and if possible to identify the third party driver. You should also seek immediate medical attention which will provide a record of the injuries you have sustained.

Our Personal Injury Solicitors will then provide you with a free consultation to decide whether or not we could offer you a No Win No Fee arrangement to pursue your personal injury claim.

On the basis that your accident claim is accepted by our Solicitors, we will then file a claim to the Motor Insurers Bureau on your behalf.

It is important to note that there are strict time limits for making a personal injury claim in uninsured driver cases. It is necessary to start the claim within 3 years of the date of the accident to prevent your claim from becoming statute barred.

The Motor Insurers Bureau does pay legal fees in the same way as an Insurance Company would if the third party is insured.
